About Spirit Sox
We’re focused on making a difference in the world with each pair of our customized socks.
The Spirit Sox Story
It all started with an idea. Founder Lisa Riggs (affectionately known as the Sock Queen) was always volunteering in fundraisers for her kids’ activities and sports. While running the After School Sports Program, she had the idea to use socks as a fundraiser. The socks were wildly successful (selling out in just 4 days) and Spirit Sox was born.
Lisa saw how popular and easy custom socks could be for any organization, school, community, company, sports team, or event, so why not keep the “spirit” alive! Since then, Lisa has created custom socks for countless businesses, schools, and non-profits across the world that use their unique promo items in many creative ways.
Today, our socks have made it into the hands (and onto the feet) of iconic brands like Google, WER Women’s Elite Rugby, SJC Airport, Comcast, JP Morgan Chase, Sam’s Club, Coca-Cola, and Sony Pictures, just to name a few!
Powered by Purpose.
Led by Women.
Today at Spirit Sox, we believe socks can do more than keep your feet warm – they can make a statement, build community, and give back. As a proud woman-owned business, we specialize in designing custom socks that elevate your brand while spreading joy. Whether you’re a school, nonprofit, business, or team, we help you step into your identity with vibrant, high-quality socks made to spread your brand or word.
More than a product, each pair of Spirit Sox tells a story. We’re passionate about blending creativity with purpose, ensuring every sock not only looks great but does good. When you work with us, you get a partner who’s dedicated to quality, community, and a little fun along the way.
Socks with a Soul
Social Responsibility
Giving back is essential to us. That’s why we give 5% of our profits to underserved communities. Have a favorite charity? We can earmark the profits from your project for it.
Quality Materials and Production
We relentlessly insist on quality at every stage of the custom-sock process. Unlike competitors’ screen-printed socks, ours are custom knit with your unique design. With a reinforced toe and heel, Spirit Sox have the durability, quality and comfort you are looking for.
Owned and Operated by Women
Just like our company, our manufacturer is owned and run by a woman. We support each other and work together to make sure Spirit Sox customers are 100% happy and satisfied with their product.
About Us
We are a small but mighty team! These are words we often say to each other as we work together to deliver quality socks, make our customers happy, and accomplish big things for our growing company. Whether we’re empowering others, supporting schools or businesses, or spreading spirit through custom socks, we’re all about lifting each other up and having fun every step of the way.
At Spirit Sox, we believe great teams are built on heart, creativity, and purpose. Working here is not just about selling socks – we are a mission driven group who know our socks can make a difference in communities across the globe. Our team is built on heart, creativity and purpose.
Meet The Spirit Sox Team
Lisa Riggs
Spirit Sox Founder and CEO
Outside of my family, sports and dogs are my 2 greatest loves. Growing up I really wanted to play football but that wasn’t an option. Today, if I wasn’t running Spirit Sox, I’d be racing cars!
Favorite Sock Design: The Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune socks have to be my favorites not only because Kenzie was so creative with the designs, but because my family and I have watched these iconic game shows my entire life and now my company is making socks for them! 🤯

Kateryna Dubova
Operations Manager
I grew up in Ukraine, and moving to the U.S. introduced my family to many new traditions, like celebrating American Christmas and Thanksgiving, which we’ve now embraced as our own.
Favorite Sock Design: If I had to pick just one, I’d say my all-time favorite is the Crossword design. I love how versatile it is, it looks great with loafers or sneakers, jeans or leggings.
Kenzie Smoot
Graphic Designer
Lives by the mantra: “A book a day keeps reality away!” Kenzie reads every single day and hasn’t missed one in over 7 years—especially when it comes to her favorite genre: fantasy.
Favorite Sock Design: She’s been designing for Spirit Sox for nearly 6 years and has created more custom socks than she can count! But her go-to pair? The Sweet Cherry Socks—because they’re pink (her favorite color) and add the perfect fun, girly pop to any outfit.

I was born in Florida but am VERY scared of the ocean. To be honest, I barely know how to swim!
Favorite Sock Design: My favorite sock design are the Sweet Cherry Socks because I love the color pink and cherries are adorable!
