Brown & Blue - Super-durable Cotton lisle
Here's the brown & light blue vanise knee-high sock from Mazarin's super-durable cotton lisle range.
These high socks (above the calf - below the knee) are part of the most resistant range in the world! Our super-durable socks combine the best of natural and synthetic materials : Cotton lisle, for its lightness and softness, and polyamide for its strength (a material used for boat mooring lines).
As you can see, these socks are unrivalled in their robustness, tested and approved by the world-renowned Martindale wear test. The addition of elastane gives them flexibility and a perfect fit on the leg.
The vanished, or striped, pattern of these socks makes them very elegant: their brown/hazelnut color with light sky-blue stripes will pair perfectly with navy blue or even gray suits and brown shoes. You can also wear them with more casual outfits to give them even more chic appeal, thanks to the fine fancy stripes.
These socks knitted in Italy are of intermediate thickness: they're slightly thicker than 100% cotton lisle, but still fit perfectly into dress shoes!
Knitted in Italy, they have exceptional finishing touches: reinforced toe and heel, and stitch-by-stitch for greater comfort thanks to the absence of seams at the toe.
We offer three heights of socks:
1- Knee-High Socks
Height: these socks are quite long, reaching just below the knee.
Advantages: they offer more support and cover the entire shin. Their height is suitable to be worn with suit trousers.
2- Mid-Calf Socks
Height: mid-calf socks are shorter socks that reach the middle of the calf.
Advantages: they are ideal for people who wear tight-fitting trousers.
3- No-Show Socks
Height: these socks are very short, meant to stay hidden inside of the shoe. We offer different models for different shoes.
Advantage: the no-show socks are invisible in the trainers or moccasins but still protect your feet and shoes.
