Sock Shop
Sock Shop Limited is a British-based specialist retailer of socks and hosiery, founded in 1983 by Sophie Mirman (b. 1956) and Richard P. Ross. == Concept == Mirman said "People should be able to buy socks and stockings as easily as they buy newspapers".〔Lohr, Steve, ''A "Silly" Sock Idea Makes Millions'', for The New York Times, November 23, 1987〕 She envisioned small shops that only sold women's tights, stockings, and socks. With this in mind, Sock Shop outlets were placed for convenience on busy city streets, in train stations, subway stations and at airports. They were small, between 400 and , and had no visible doors, which drew passers-by (as many as 1000 a day) into the store.〔 Their stock featured bold colours, dramatic patterns and novelty designs in hundreds of styles. Prices were considered moderate at £0.99 to £24.99 per pair in 1987, with the priciest designs including gold-lace tights.〔
