4 good reasons for choosing striped socks

Light

The Nines’ new striped socks are unique in that they’re made mostly of Egyptian cotton. How is that better than traditional cotton?

Without going into too much detail regarding the composition, it can be said that Egyptian cotton is one of the rarest and most prestigious cottons on the fabric market. In fact, if you compare it to other types of cotton, Egyptian cotton features longer and finer fibres.

Moreover, it has several benefits: it’s light, supple and perfectly soft. A naturally breathable material, it’s actually perfectly-suited for summer. We’ve also made sure that our pairs of striped socks are thin so your feet can breathe with complete peace of mind.

A great alternative to wool socks or birdseye socks!

Comfortable

If you think thin socks are less comfortable, think again.

At The Nines, we adhere to exact specifications in order to ensure that your socks and your feet are comfortable. Thanks to the Egyptian cotton used in our striped socks, they have:

- Unparalleled elasticity

- Pleasant to wear

- No itchiness

- No pilling

Original

Stripes are a good compromise between remaining conservative and wanting to stand out. Of course, they’ll give you a unique style which will show off your personality without making you look too off-kilter. Striped socks are thin and horizontal.

If they match your colour scheme, they can give your outfit texture.  For example, royal and navy blue striped socks go perfectly with camel shoes and navy blue trousers.

To help you give them a try and avoid committing a fashion faux-pas, you can consult a colour chart with complementary colours.

Durable

Last but not least, this is perhaps the most important reason why you should wear striped socks. As you now know, these socks are made from Egyptian cotton. This cotton is subject to strict regulations so as to meet the needs of your feet and ensure optimal finishes.

Don’t forget this essential detail. These socks are made in Greece by passionate artisans who work with manufacturers that are famous in this domain.  The remeshing is done by hand so that the same quality is maintained over time.
