<p> </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Formal socks should be the finest that a gentleman owns, so we spared no expense when it came to our formal socks, which we are proud to call, with no exaggeration, the finest socks in the world.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Combining exceptional cotton for structure and comfort and superlative silk for a marvelous luster, these socks are made from the high grade materials available. Utilizing highly specialized machines with an extremely rare 280-needle configuration, they have also been crafted to the highest possible standards for exceptional breathability, supreme comfort, and a glorious silky sheen that is worthy of the best formal wear.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This particular pair appears in dazzling light navy, the perfect transitional color between the traditional black of eveningwear and the unique color palette typical of Warm Weather Black Tie, Festive Black Tie, or a subtle twist on more conventional Black Tie. Whether setting off a colorful boutonniere or harmonizing with a midnight-blue dinner jacket, these light navy formal evening socks provide a pop of unexpected color without compromising on the dignity of the occasion.</p></div></div></div><div data-content-type="row" data-appearance="contained" data-element="main"><div data-enable-parallax="0" data-parallax-speed="0.5" data-background-images="{}" data-background-type="image" data-video-loop="true" data-video-play-only-visible="true" data-video-lazy-load="true" data-video-fallback-src="" data-element="inner" data-pb-style="X6R01XJ"><div class="pagebuilder-column-group" style="display: flex;" data-content-type="column-group" data-grid-size="12" data-element="main"><div class="pagebuilder-column" data-content-type="column" data-appearance="full-height" data-background-images="{}" data-element="main" data-pb-style="R0TRB3M"><div data-content-type="html" data-appearance="default" data-element="main">{{widget type="Trmmarketing\Lazyloadyoutube\Block\Player" youtubeid="XM9LIgJIaog" firstvideo="yes"}}</div><figure data-content-type="image" data-appearance="full-width" data-element="main" data-pb-style="KCMG8RQ"><img class="pagebuilder-mobile-hidden" src="{{media url=wysiwyg/sock_sizing_fort_belvedere_6_1__1.png}}" alt="Fort Belvedere Sock Sizing Chart" title="" data-element="desktop_image" data-pb-style="NQ79P4C"><img class="pagebuilder-mobile-only" src="{{media url=wysiwyg/sock_sizing_fort_belvedere_6_1__1.png}}" alt="Fort Belvedere Sock Sizing Chart" title="" data-element="mobile_image" data-pb-style="S6NH2FT"></figure></div><div class="pagebuilder-column" data-content-type="column" data-appearance="full-height" data-background-images="{}" data-element="main" data-pb-style="C9RS8M9"><h2 data-content-type="heading" data-appearance="default" data-element="main">What's my size?</h2><div data-content-type="text" data-appearance="default" data-element="main"><p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>When your new socks arrive, they will appear large, but this is because they will shrink to the perfect size in the wash.</p>
<p>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.</p></div><h2 data-content-type="heading" data-appearance="default" data-element="main">Why over the calf socks?</h2><div data-content-type="text" data-appearance="default" data-element="main"><p>Few things will ruin the look of an otherwise sharp evening ensemble 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 sheen and availability of formal evening socks in a select palette of sedate and dignified colors.</p></div></div></div></div></div><div data-content-type="row" data-appearance="contained" data-element="main"><div data-enable-parallax="0" data-parallax-speed="0.5" data-background-images="{}" data-background-type="image" data-video-loop="true" data-video-play-only-visible="true" data-video-lazy-load="true" data-video-fallback-src="" data-element="inner" data-pb-style="E7ERIAI"><div class="pagebuilder-column-group" style="display: flex;" data-content-type="column-group" data-grid-size="12" data-element="main"><div class="pagebuilder-column" data-content-type="column" data-appearance="full-height" data-background-images="{}" data-element="main" data-pb-style="E1RVUJM"><h2 data-content-type="heading" data-appearance="default" data-element="main">Curious how to combine these socks with shoes and pants?</h2><div data-content-type="text" data-appearance="default" data-element="main"><p>We have created an in-depth video guide to learn the basics of how to properly harmonize shoes, socks, and pants.

This color, indicative of your personality and suited to the occasion, is best added through unobtrusive accessories like your bow tie, pocket square, or boutonniere.</p>
<p>These light navy socks provide the perfect touch of color and unexpected visual interest to harmonize with a stately pocket square, or to set off a blue delphinium or veronica persica boutonniere. It could even contrast a dark blue formal bow tie marvelously.</p></div></div><div class="pagebuilder-column" data-content-type="column" data-appearance="full-height" data-background-images="{}" data-element="main" data-pb-style="THKQGX8"><div data-content-type="html" data-appearance="default" data-element="main">{{widget type="Trmmarketing\Lazyloadyoutube\Block\Player" youtubeid="bW1THoY--8E" firstvideo="no"}}</div><div data-content-type="html" data-appearance="default" data-element="main">{{widget type="Trmmarketing\Lazyloadyoutube\Block\Player" youtubeid="zpdo60oKhMc" firstvideo="no"}}</div></div></div></div></div><div data-content-type="row" data-appearance="contained" data-element="main"><div data-enable-parallax="0" data-parallax-speed="0.5" data-background-images="{}" data-background-type="image" data-video-loop="true" data-video-play-only-visible="true" data-video-lazy-load="true" data-video-fallback-src="" data-element="inner" data-pb-style="LVUCVTP"><div class="pagebuilder-column-group" style="display: flex;" data-content-type="column-group" data-grid-size="12" data-element="main"><div class="pagebuilder-column" data-content-type="column" data-appearance="full-height" data-background-images="{}" data-element="main" data-pb-style="K2RRQNO"><figure class="mgz-single-image-wrapper" data-content-type="image" data-appearance="full-width" data-element="main" data-pb-style="V7WYU5X"><img class="pagebuilder-mobile-hidden" src="{{media url=wysiwyg/7R408392.jpg}}" alt="Chocolate Brown Gucci Loafers with light navy silk socks by Fort Belvedere" title="" data-element="desktop_image" data-pb-style="IBRRYF7"><img class="pagebuilder-mobile-only" src="{{media url=wysiwyg/7R408392.jpg}}" alt="Chocolate Brown Gucci Loafers with light navy silk socks by Fort Belvedere" title="" data-element="mobile_image" data-pb-style="EQL03GT"></figure></div><div class="pagebuilder-column" data-content-type="column" data-appearance="full-height" data-background-images="{}" data-element="main" data-pb-style="ELLLOYC"><h2 data-content-type="heading" data-appearance="default" data-element="main">Why are these shadow stripe socks so special? </h2><div data-content-type="text" data-appearance="default" data-element="main"><p><strong>The Best Possible Materials.</strong> Combining 75% silk with 25% Egyptian 2-Ply Fil d'Ecosse cotton, the high-quality materials used for these socks have been carefully selected and proportioned to create socks that stay properly positioned on your legs while feeling light, comfortable, and airy. And their beautiful sheen is icing on the cake!</p>
<p><strong>Finely Knitted on Artisanal Machines.</strong> Most Fort Belvedere socks are knitted on machines with 240 needles that already offer incredible results. We wanted to go one step further for our formal socks, so we employed machines with 280 needles to make these socks the finest in the world.</p>
<p><strong>Hand-Finished.</strong> Machine-finished socks have an annoying seam at the toe area that can rub against and irritate your feet. Because all of our Fort Belvedere socks are hand finished, the toe area is smooth and completely soft, minimizing pressure and irritability at this critical location.</p>
<p><strong>Perfect for Convivial Black Tie.</strong> The resplendent light navy of these socks offers an entire world of styling potential, effortlessly bridging the gap between conventional Black Tie events and the greater freedom and conviviality of more casual Black Tie occasions. Whether raking in your winners at the roulette table or cutting a rug at a holiday party, you will always make a wonderful lasting impression wearing these socks!</p></div></div></div></div></div><div data-content-type="row" data-appearance="contained" data-element="main"><div data-enable-parallax="0" data-parallax-speed="0.5" data-background-images="{}" data-background-type="image" data-video-loop="true" data-video-play-only-visible="true" data-video-lazy-load="true" data-video-fallback-src="" data-element="inner" data-pb-style="BOQPGH2"><div data-content-type="text" data-appearance="default" data-element="main"><p><span style="font-size: 28px;">How to Wear These Formal Socks</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Formal socks are necessary for formal dress codes like Black Tie, White Tie, and morning wear, although colorful varieties like these are best reserved for Festive and similarly more casual Black Tie occasions. They should be worn with opera pumps, formal evening slippers, patent leather or similarly formal oxfords, and formal dress boots.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Because these socks are so sublimely thin and breathable, some of our customers also enjoy wearing them in warm and hot weather to keep their feet cool.<br></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 28px;">Formal Sock Etiquette</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14px;">For conventional Black Tie, White Tie, or morning wear occasions, for which higher degrees of formality are expected, you should wear traditional black formal socks. On certain occasions, including events for which the dress code is Creative Black Tie, Festive Black Tie, or something similar, however, you have the opportunity to bend formal conventions and add vivacity to your look with colorful formal socks.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14px;">The light navy of these socks is perfectly acceptable for all but the most formal Black Tie events. Whether harmonizing with other colorful accessories in your ensemble, setting off a toned dinner jacket, or serving as unexpected visual interest, these elegant socks will be right at home on the deck of a cruise ship with an ivory dinner jacket, ringing in the New Year at a swanky gala in a midnight blue tuxedo, or when you are hosting friends at home in a decadent smoking jacket. <br></span></p>
