What our customers are saying
Product Information
Charcoal mid-calf dress socks. A deep grey that does the work of black under a navy or grey suit, with more depth and less contrast. The mid-calf length sits below the trouser break, comfortable under most tailored trousers.
Knit in Italy from 100% Mercerised Egyptian cotton on a 240-needle machine. Hand-linked heels and a seamless toe sit flat against the foot. The default neutral for business dress.
Also available in over-the-calf. In mid-calf, see the Black for the darkest option or the Grey for a lighter neutral.
The Make
Knit in Italy on machines that turn each pair slowly. The country where a dress sock is still treated as a garment, not a commodity.
Long-staple cotton from the Nile Delta, spun in Italy. The longer the fibre, the smoother the thread, and the longer the sock holds its softness.
The yarn is bathed in lye under tension, a process patented in the 1840s. It tightens the fibre, deepens the colour, and gives mercerized cotton its quiet sheen.
The number of needles on the cylinder that knits each sock. The higher the count, the finer the gauge, and the closer it feels to a piece of fabric than to a piece of hosiery.
Knit to the weight a proper dress shoe wants. Slim enough that the foot still feels the leather, sturdy enough to last a day in it.
The two places a sock wears out first, knit with twice the yarn and tighter tension. The reason a pair lasts seasons rather than weeks.
The toe seam is closed by hand on a linking machine, stitch by stitch. No ridge under the toe, no rub against the inside of a shoe.
A simple paper sleeve. Slips off, and the socks are ready to wear.
