What are they made of?
Our socks boast a proprietary blend of premium materials meticulously crafted over the last decade to ensure unrivaled comfort, fit, and durability. Crafted without any cotton or wool, our Signature Material Blend combines only the highest grade fibers:
32s/1 Polyester (55%): Renowned for its strength and resilience, polyester enhances the durability of our socks, ensuring they withstand the rigors of daily wear while maintaining their shape and vibrant color.
Viscose (23%): Derived from natural fibers, viscose adds a luxurious softness and a silk-like finish and shine to our socks, providing a gentle touch against the skin for unparalleled comfort throughout the day.
Nylon (17%): Known for its elasticity and flexibility, nylon contributes to the socks' uniform stretchiness, allowing for a snug yet comfortable fit that contours to the shape of your feet without constricting them.
Spandex (5%): Infused for elasticity and stretch, spandex ensures our socks maintain their shape and snug fit over time, resisting sagging or bagging even after repeated washing and wearing.
This meticulously crafted blend not only delivers exceptional comfort but also ensures our socks retain their shape and vibrant color, standing out with a vivid pop of color wash after wash. Experience the difference of our Signature Material Blend and discover unparalleled comfort and durability with every step.
Over-The-Calf or Mid-Calf Socks?
Choosing between Over-The-Calf (OTC) and Mid-Calf socks often comes down to personal preference and the occasion. Here's why a customer might opt for each style:
Over-The-Calf Socks:
- Maximum Coverage: our over-the-calf (OTC) socks provide full coverage, meeting just above the calf muscle. This makes them ideal for formal occasions such as business meetings, weddings, or black-tie events where a polished appearance is essential.
- Stay-Up Feature: The length of OTC socks helps them stay up throughout the day without slouching or slipping down, ensuring a neat and tidy look.
Mid-Calf Socks:
- Versatility: Our mid-calf socks strike a balance between coverage and comfort, making them suitable for various occasions, from casual outings to business and semi-formal events. They can be paired with almost any trouser, from suits and chinos to jeans, offering flexibility in styling.
- Stay-Up Feature: Our mid-calf socks have received awards and accolades as the only dress socks on the market that stay up throughout the day without slouching or slipping down, ensuring a neat and tidy look.
Both Fits Feature:
- Stay-Up Fit – Stays in place without sliding down or constricting on your leg, guaranteed.
- Signature Material Blend - Engineered and perfected over the past decade for superior fit, comfort, and to stay up all day.
- Breathable Comfort – Moisture wicking, breathable, anti-microbial.
- Easy to Wear – The easiest socks you'll ever put on with enhanced elasticity for a perfect fit.
Ultimately, whether someone chooses Over-The-Calf or Mid-Calf socks depends on their individual preferences, the occasion, and the level of comfort and style they seek. All of our styles come in your choice of mid-calf or over-the-calf men's dress socks. You can filter our collections by color, pattern, fit, and more!
