Socks can maketh or breaketh an outfit. INDEX rounded up some classics and photographed them.
Stripe Socks by NOM*d
A Kiwi classic, Dunedin’s NOM*d have been on the fashion block since ’86. Featuring their signature logo and some mighty orange sports stripes, these New Zealand-made socks are a great injection of personality for your feet.
Bed Socks by General Sleep
When only the most luxe socks will do, dial up Tessuti and order yourself some ‘Sun’ socks. Made in New Zealand and available in two sizes, the socks are made from 65 per cent fine merino, 25 per cent brushtail possum down and 10 per cent mulberry silk.
Her Socks by Le Bon Shoppe
Founded in Los Angeles by three friends, Le Bon Shoppe shirks fast fashion and instead focuses on long-lasting quality. With silk-like feels, these perfect-height rib socks are comprised of a mercerised combed cotton and worth every penny.
1986 Socks by NOM*d
Time-stamping NOM*d’s year of establishment, these 1986 socks are the perfect gift for those who were born in the ’80s or those who wish they were. Designed by Margarita Robertson and made in New Zealand, these iconic socks provide the perfect outlier vibes.
Summer Socks by General Sleep
Another day, another pair of excellent socks by General Sleep. Silky soft, these classic-cut socks feature a deep rib band, are made in New Zealand and designed by Bailey Meredith and Greta van der Star.
