As resolutely English a pair of socks as you could hope to have, our men’s SOCKSHOP of London Bold Broad Stripe Cotton Socks are made for us in historic Hathern, Leicestershire, where weaving was once literally a cottage industry, with virtually every home in the village dedicated to frames and looms.

Although these colourful, modern men’s rugby stripe socks are factory-made, they still have many of the virtues of tradition, finished by hand and using 90% pure cotton rich yarn, with minimal nylon included for resilience and shape retention. SOCKSHOP of London Bold Broad Stripe Cotton Socks are light to mid-weight gauge, half calf length, with Smooth Linked Toes for smooth seams and just the thing for weekend casual wear.
