Shadow Stripe Ribbed Socks Grey and Burgundy Red Fil d'Ecosse Cotton - Fort Belvedere

To ensure a comfortable fit and the correct positioning, your dress socks should always be sized, because no one’s feet are “one size fits all.” At Fort Belvedere, we proudly offer all of our dress socks in five sizes, from Small to Extra Extra Large.

To determine your size, use our accompanying size chart. We have also made a video tutorial to aid you in finding exactly the right size for your foot, taking into consideration personal preferences like desired tightness or looseness.

When your new socks arrive, they will appear large, but this is because they will shrink to the perfect size in the wash.

If you buy multiple socks, wash and then dry one pair first to double-check fit before shrinking all of the socks in the order. 

Few things will ruin the look of an otherwise sharp business outfit more quickly than short socks, because they will inevitably become saggy and baggy while exposing your legs. Traditional over-the-calf dress socks don’t have this issue as their length helps them stay up all day. It doesn’t hurt that in addition to remaining up, Fort Belvedere dress socks also look great, thanks to their subtle patterns and colorful accents.

We have created an in-depth video guide to learn the basics of how to properly harmonize shoes, socks, and pants. If you want to master this subtle art, we are also happy to offer you our ebook on the subject, a $25 value, for free!

The Black and White stripes are a unique twist on a more formal pair of socks. It provides a different look under a more formal black suit, or with the more casual spectrum of Black tie.

If you are someone who frequently wears black suits or black ties, this would be a pair of socks we would highly recommend. The color scheme can match any element of an outfit and gives a more elevated look against more formal pants than plain black socks.
