Article: The right socks for every occasion

The right socks for every occasion
You're probably familiar with the saying "clothes make the man." But you could easily change that to "socks make the man." After all, even if you're wearing a beautiful suit, wearing woolly socks under your suit is a huge fashion faux pas. To stick with the proverbs for now: that's like a flag on a mud barge.
Finishing touch
Socks aren't just functional; they also play a subtle yet impactful role in creating a stylish and appropriate look for any occasion. They're the essential finishing touch to your outfit, so to speak. An outfit that reflects your personality: perfectly put together and perfectly balanced.
Formal
Pair your formal suit for a business or formal event with socks in the same color as your trousers or shoes. You're sure to find a perfect match in our extensive range. Avoid flashy patterns and prints. Go for solids or subtle stripes. Our socks reach mid-calf, so no part of your leg is visible when you sit down.
Just married
On your wedding day, you naturally want to look your absolute best. While this is a formal occasion, for the most beautiful day of your life, everything deserves a little something extra. Complete your wedding outfit with our groom socks . They're available in a wide range of colors, made from the finest materials, and feature a subtle message under the cuff: "just married."
Casual
Even if you dress casually in your free time, you still want to look well-groomed and trendy. Then experiment with our colorful socks. We've developed our own line, inspired by Italy. Think patterns of Vespa, Fiat 500, Italian gestures, Giro d'Italia, Ferrari, Ducati, and of course, coffee. Make a statement with something that suits you!
No-show socks
When you wear sneakers or loafers under your shorts, you naturally don't want any of the sock peeking out. But walking around barefoot in your shoes isn't pleasant either. Then try our Italian no-show socks . These are traditionally made and feature improved anti-slip strips in the heel and on the sides of the foot for extra grip.
Sporty
Going to play squash or paddle tennis and find our no-show socks a bit too low? No problem: we have the perfect sock for this occasion too. We also have them in a slightly higher style: the sneaker sock.
