Only Socks – Aussie Made, Built to Last
G’day, I’m Alastair — I'm the founder of Only Socks.
I was born in Narrabri, NSW, and grew up on a small property where I learned the value of hard work early. I started working the cotton season when I was 15 for a bit of extra pocket money, then headed off to uni to study civil engineering. Turns out, that wasn’t quite my path.
Only Socks started as a bit of a joke between me and a mate after I blew a hole in the heel of a pair of socks I’d only had for a couple of months. I remember saying, “I reckon I could do a better job than this.” That offhand comment turned into a few mates wanting better socks… then their mates… and before long, Only Socks was born.
Our mission is simple: make the best value socks in Australia — tough, comfortable, and built to last — all at a competitive price. No gimmicks, no fluff. Just socks that do what they’re meant to.
We started by creating a work sock designed for every Aussie who laces up a pair of boots each morning. Now, we’ve expanded into a premium sports sock and even a Koala Conservation Sock, where part of the proceeds go back to protecting our iconic wildlife.
At the heart of Only Socks are four key values:
Comfort. Quality. Integrity. Innovation.
Every pair we make is stitched with these principles in mind — and proudly made right here in Australia.
So whether you’re on the tools, hitting the gym, or just want a decent pair of socks that won’t quit on you after two washes — we’ve got you covered.
Thanks for stopping by.
