The different materials of our black socks
The Nines black socks are available in different materials. We first offer Fil d'Ecosse socks knitted in Italy. Fil d'Ecosse is obtained through the mercerization of cotton fiber, which gives a silky and lustrous appearance as well as increased resistance. The heels and toes are also reinforced for increased durability.
Our cotton socks are perfect for your feet. They are hand-linked and made of cotton with a small percentage of polyamide and elastane, and adjust to the size of your feet. They are easy to wash thanks to their heat resistance. Our cotton socks, made in Portugal, can be worn all year round as they release heat in summer and retain it in winter.
The wool socks we offer are knitted from fine wool from Oceania. This wool that we select is shorn from Merino sheep in Australia and New Zealand. It is natural and renewable, very resistant, and also has antibacterial properties. This fiber is thicker and warmer and will help you face the cold in style thanks to its fine weave!
How to pair your black socks?
The first rule to consider when pairing your socks concerns your height. Indeed, shorter men will match their socks to their shoes to elongate the silhouette thanks to an impression of continuity and to maintain a certain harmony. Taller men can break the association and play with colors according to their style. Next, thick white socks should only be worn with sports sneakers. No exceptions! Finally, your black socks should be long enough not to reveal your calves.
If you want to maintain a rather classic and understated style, plain socks and black socks are made for you. Pair your black socks with a suit and leather shoes in a similar color shade for a very elegant and sophisticated look.
If you want to highlight other pieces of your outfit, black socks are also a wise choice. Black socks, blending into your outfit, will allow your shoes or pants to stand out. Stay chic by pairing black socks with anthracite flannel trousers and a blazer of the same color, for example. Don't hesitate to opt for patterned black socks for more originality!
