Super-durable socks are highly resistant to wear and tear, thanks to their multiple reinforcements. Comfort is not forgotten either, as these socks are knitted from a very soft, medium-weight cotton.
The toes of our socks are seamlessly toe-linked for a seamless finish.
These socks are knitted in Italy.

Advantages: they provide better hold and fully cover the shin. Their height is suitable to be worn with dress pants.
2- Crew Socks
Height: crew socks are short socks that reach the middle of the calf.
Advantage: they are suitable for people who wear slim-fit pants.
3- No-Show Socks
Height: no-show socks are very short socks. Two cutouts: one for sneakers that reaches below the ankle bone and one for loafers that reaches below the instep.
Advantage: no-show socks are invisible in sneakers or loafers but still protect your feet and shoes.
