Why over the calf socks?

Few things will ruin the look of an otherwise sharp business outfit more than quickly than short socks, because they will inevitably reveal your hairy legs. That's why we offer traditional over the calf socks in subtle patterns & colorful accents so you will always look great in your business attire.

Curious how to combine these socks with shoes and pants?

Just watch the video or get our 94-page guide on how to pair socks with shoes and pants for free.

It's Time to Think Pink!

The pink and grey stripes on this pair of socks are a unique twist on dress socks and are ideal if you want to add an unexpected dash of color to your outfit in a sophisticated way. Combining a neutral color with a bold one, they add unique visual interest but have an impressive ability to be dressed up or down as needed.

When worn with a darker ensemble, they provide a dash of color that prevents the look from appearing too sedate; the more tonally similar the colors you wear, the more formal the overall outfit will appear. With a lighter ensemble, they naturally harmonize with the casual feel and add warmth.

For a more cohesive look, pair these socks with a tie or pocket square with warm blush or soft pastel tones. The grey will also blend with any neutral colors. Cool tones, especially blues and greens, will pop but not be distracting.

For a truly bold ensemble, violets, navies, and blacks will contrast brilliantly against the pink. You might even be able to pull them off with a preppy-inspired Black Tie outfit.

These socks look huge when you get them, but they will shrink once you wash them. If you used the size guide you should be fine!

Note, some people like their socks tight, others like them looser. We assume you like them neither too snug nor too loose.

If you buy more than one pair of socks, wash and dry just one pair, to make sure you have the fit you like.

  • 100% Extra-Long-Staple Cotton. Our yarn is made in Italy from Egyptian ELS cotton with fibres over 33/35mm / 1.3" in length. This yields in a durable, naturally shiny yarns, which is perfect for our socks.
  • Manually Harvested Cotton. While it is more costly to pick cotton by hand, it also comes with a few benefits: 1. It avoids impurifications 2. Cotton can be picked at the perfect degree of ripeness. 3. It avoids the use of defoliants which is harmful to humans
  • 2-ply Twisted Yarn. Twisting the cotton creates a lustrous and highly-resistant yarn which increases the longevity of the socks.
  • Flame treated Yarn. All yarns are flame-treated to burn off any fuzziness you may know from flannel. The result of this process leads to a brilliant yarn, uniformity in color as well as resistance to pilling.
  • Mercerized Cotton. Our yarn is mercerized which makes the socks more abrasion resistant and therefore they last longer.
  • Yarn-Dyed with Oeko-Tex 100 Dye. Our yarns are yarn-dyed, meeting the Oeko-Tex 100 standard, and because our cotton is highly absorbant we can use 35% fewer chemicals than regular cotton.

  • Watch the video for details
  • To remove the green tag, gently pull on the thread.
  • No need for scissors or a knife because you might end up with a hole that way
  • Once you remove the tissue paper, chances are, they will look big.
  • Wash them either by hand or machine
  • The temperature should be warm or 30°C -40°C / 86°F-104°F
  • Put them in a little wash bag so it's easier to pair them afterwards
  • Ideally, you pull them in shape and you let them air dry.
  • Why not put them in a dryer? Anything you put in the dryer will not last as long as it could if it was air-dried.
    Yes, we get it. It's more convenient and our socks should be able to handle the dryer every once in a while, but if you want to get the most of your socks, do not dry them regularly.
