THE LONDON SOCK EXCHANGE
The Barista Oak Socks
Rise above the daily grind by taking the plunge with these perky delights.
As for a styling tip? Weʼll spill the beans: filter through your closet and wear these alongside a well-cut long black stride and classic flat white sneaker for an ensemble thatʼs piping hot.
Each and every sock they make is crafted for comfort and style.
The London Sock Exchange knit their socks using 200 needles and sustainably-sourced, certified organic cotton. The high density of this knit means socks are not only finer, but also stronger than your average pair. Within the design, the patterns are knitted in nylon, and we use a small amount of elastane in the top, for grip. The exact split of materials depends slightly on the design, but usually it's around 78% organic cotton, 20% nylon, 2% elastane.
Unlike a lot of socks produced for the high-street, they also don’t cut any corners when finishing their socks. That’s why they handlink the toe to each and every sock they make. This gives a perfect, seamless finish to the bottom end of the sock, for maximum comfort.
And finally, their socks are all finished with a honeycomb welt, to give a more comfortable, flexible fit around the calf.
