About Us
From the founder.
Gorilla Sox started with experience, not an idea.
I'm Jack. I’ve played semi-professional football for over 10 years, and during that time I’ve worn just about every grip sock available. Some worked briefly. Most didn’t last. Grip wore down, holes appeared too quickly, and performance dropped off after a few washes.
After dealing with the same issues season after season, it became clear the problem wasn't how they're worn, it was design and durability.
So I began developing a grip sock for myself. One that could handle regular training, match days, and constant washing without losing its purpose. The focus was simple: consistency, longevity, and performance where it actually matters.
That process became Gorilla Sox.
Every element of the sock has been shaped by use on the pitch. Grip placement, materials, fit inside the boot, nothing is there without reason. The goal has never been to follow trends, but to create a product players can rely on week after week.
Gorilla Sox is built for footballers who expect their kit to perform properly, not just look good out of the bag.
If you play the game, you’ll understand why that matters.
