Are your socks midnight black or foggy grey?

If you want to know if your socks are midnight black or just foggy grey, use the BLACKSOCKS app and the iPhone camera to take a black reading. A traffic light system appears on the screen to make clear whether the socks are still wearable (or still bearable).

Your business socks have never been so sporty

Urban Comfort is the sporty business sock from BLACSOCKS for men who want to be well dressed whatever the occasion.

The best way to walk is on a soft surface: Urban Comfort socks have a soft terry sole and smooth finish, making them really comfortable to wear. The comfort cuff stops them cutting into the ankle. Socks do not get much more comfortable than this.

You receive 12 pairs of socks once a year. When the new socks arrive you can get rid of the old socks. What's in it for you: All your socks are the same age and can be replaced once a year.

Business light socks

Unlike the classical calf socks, the Business light is not ribbed, is significantly thinner and yet hard-wearing and opaque. The high proportion of mercerised cotton – also known as fil d’Ecosse – provides a silky, wash-resistant sheen and high durability.

The socks are manufactured in northern Italy. They meet the requirements of the Oeko-Tex 100 standard and are thus non-irritating to the skin and allergy-tested.

Like all our products, the Business light ...

20 extra days of free time

As a BLACKSOCKS customer and sockscriber, you recognise the value of a sockscription and appreciate the convenience of no longer having to shop around for socks:

Unlimited luxury – a life free of sock stress and 20 extra days of free time!

Year after year, valuable hours, even days, are wasted on recurring thoughts such as “I really ought to ...” and “Which ones did I buy last time?”, not to mention the nerve-wracking task of sorting out mismatched ...

In different colors

Our calf socks are winners of a consumer test survey and the bestsellers of the BLACKSOCKS line.

They are made from the most high-quality cotton types in the world: Pima cotton - also called "the silk of South America." This cotton is characterized by its high stability and tension resistant strength. Thanks to the cotton's long fibers, the socks become linty less quickly and are more durable.

Our classic calf socks: now available in black, navy, gr...

Over one million pairs sold!

Back in 1999, we launched the sockscription, a completely new idea designed to free men from sock stress. In 2008 – thanks to you – we have a good reason to celebrate: The delivery of our one millionth pair of calf socks!

At first, our vision of a world free of sock stress was dismissed as a lunatic idea, but word soon spread and a growing number of satisfied customers helped to carry the idea of a sock subscription out into the world. We now supply socks to 60,000...

Socks on subscription

Boxer Shorts Pauline

According to Roger Moore, gentlemen with a sense of style prefer bad company to bad underwear. We are of the same opinion and thus launch the classic boxer shorts Pauline.
