Navy & Steel - Houndstooth - Super-Durable Cotton Lisle
This navy & steel houndstooth pair made of Super-Durable cotton lisle from the brand Mazarin is ideal for a discreet and elegant addition to your outfit.
This houndstooth pattern, a combination of two blues, steel and navy, is easy to combine with many outfits, be it more casual or more formal. Wear them with grey or blue jeans or trousers, regardless of the shade.
If you haven't tried Mazarin's Super-Durable range yet, you should note that it is considered to be the sturdiest range in the world! To prove this, Mazarin has used the Martindale test, a machine that measures the wear resistance of different materials. This wear test marks Mazarin's range as a reference in the field.
This pair is made of 72% cotton lisle, a mercerised cotton from Egypt; 26% polyamide, a material that reinforces the sock and offers great resistance to friction; and finally 2% elastane, a material that provides great flexibility to the sock and allows an excellent fit around the calf.
Composition: 72% Cotton lisle - 26% Polyamide - 2% Elastane
