Sole Sisters

What Sole Sisters does

Sole Sisters (legal entity SoleSistersLLC) is a privately held specialty retail boutique founded circa 2019 by co-founders Nicole and LeAnn in Seminary, Mississippi. The company sells curated footwear, clothing, handbags, jewelry, toys, and gifts through a single physical storefront at 248 Hwy. 49, Seminary, and a Shopify-based direct-to-consumer e-commerce site at heysolesisters.com that ships to the 48 contiguous US states via USPS at a flat $6.50 rate, with local pickup available. Its core merchandise centers on women's and children's shoes (Skechers, Birkenstock, Yellow Box, Corkys, Sanuk), women's apparel (Zenana, Lulu Mac, Dear John, Jodifl), southern- and faith-themed graphic tees (Couture Tee, Simply Southern, Southern Attitude), handbags including dedicated Consuela and Myra Bags sub-collections, children's toys (Melissa & Doug, Big Country Toys), and jewelry (Kendra Scott, Pura Vida), supplemented by digital gift cards ($5–$200) and seasonal gifts.

The underlying technology stack is a standard Shopify e-commerce storefront with no proprietary technology, no public API, no SDK, and no AI or ML capabilities. The company also maintains dedicated iOS and Android shopping apps. Marketing relies on organic social (Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest) plus email and word-of-mouth from customer testimonials. Sole Sisters is a lifestyle retail business with 1–10 employees, an LLC structure registered in Mississippi, no external funding, no parent company, and founder-owned and founder-operated control. The customer base is a long tail of individual retail consumers — primarily women, with secondary segments in men, children/families, and gift shoppers — served across both local brick-and-mortar and DTC e-commerce channels.
