READ MORE BOOKS SPORTS SOCKS Reading is sexy. Pass it on. Our retro-inspired sports socks with Read More Books knitted into the leg, because there are worse things to be known for than always having a book in your bag. Cream with a deep green motif, mustard lettering and contrast Second Stories branding at the foot. Designed with a ribbed leg and extra cushioning through the sole for a softer, comfier feel. For reading on trains, reading in bed, reading on holiday, and occasionally just wearing with a very good pair of loafers. Made in small batches, because we’d always rather make a little of

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as SECOND STORIES LTD, number SC780798. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
