Soft, comfortable and elegant, these mid-high socks will be your allies for most of the year. Slightly higher than the rest of our collection, these ribbed socks are ideal for early fall through late winter. With their fine golden fibers, they'll be one of your most essential basics.
We use long cotton fibers for our ribbed socks, to give you the quality you need for everyday wear. These natural fibers are knitted on special machines designed to provide a higher density of material than standard socks.
For added durability, we've reinforced fragile, high-wear areas (toes and heels) with nylon threads. This reinforcement also preserves the shape of the socks after several washes.
Ribbed socks are characterized by a raised pattern of vertical stripes, called “ribs”.
Ribs are vertical stripes that run the entire length of the sock. This pattern is created by a specific knitting technique that alternates between tighter and looser stitches, thus forming the ribs.
Ribs add texture and thickness to the sock, which can improve fit and comfort. They are often slightly stretchy, allowing for better fit and shape retention.
Yes, ribbed socks can be warm, but this mainly depends on the materials used in their manufacture.
Cotton socks offer moderate warmth and are often less insulating than wool. They are ideal for milder temperatures, but may not be warm enough for very cold climates.
Ribbed socks are generally no more difficult to care for than other types of socks.
To preserve the shape and texture of ribbed socks, we recommend washing them by hand in lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Avoid vigorous scrubbing to avoid damaging the ribbing.
When storing your ribbed socks, be sure to fold them carefully to avoid creating permanent creases in the ribs. Avoid squeezing them too tightly to avoid deforming them.
