Pantherella

Pantherella socks have been crafted on the same street in Leicester, England since 1937. Originally established as Midland's Hosiery Mills and specialising in women's hosiery, the brand has since transformed to make premium socks. The founder, Louis Goldschmidt, set out to change the bulky, uncomfortable socks that dominated the 40s. He worked closely with a local machinist to produce an innovative sock-making machine that revolutionised the industry.

Following the company's lifelong ethos of "provenance, design and quality", Pantherella men's socks are made by hand using the finest raw materials. Specialist sock-makers work with modern machinery to quality-check and individually finish each pair. Expect designs that are made to last with reinforced heels and toes for robust durability.

As for Pantherella men's dress socks, look to iterations woven from fine fibres such as 100% silk and merino wool – the ideal accompaniment to your formal wear. For everyday life, browse the brand's core collection of cotton socks, including seamless designs in black, white and navy. You'll also find wearable patterns, such as spots and stripes, and pairs with subtle ribbed construction for added comfort and texture. If you're looking for something with extra insulation, you'll find wool and cashmere socks to be indulgently cosy.
