Description
Erin Spencer (they/them) is the co-founder and Director of Sock Drawer Heroes, Australia’s leading online store for gender expression gear, which they co-founded with their partner, Bec Cerio (they/she) in 2018. Proudly 100% trans and gender diverse (TGD) owned and operated, SDH supports people across the gender spectrum with a wide range of gender-affirming products — including chest binders, tucking underwear, packers, and binding/tucking tape.
