Socks from top-quality raw materials
Socks perform hard labour every day: long working hours, a warm and humid climate, lots of friction – only the best can be good enough. Our socks are made from top-quality raw materials and can withstand great stress. Discover the exceptional quality of our socks for yourself.
How is quality made?
The Maître Chaussettier makes sure that our socks are of impeccable quality and does not rest until he is satisfied with the results.
A series of top marks
In independent tests, our best-selling traditional calf sock has been among the best socks in Switzerland for years. The other styles have not yet been tested.
Made in Italy
BLACKSOCKS is proud of the fact that all its products are made in Europe. The majority of our socks are produced in a factory in Northern Italy.
Certified & risk-free
All our products, i.e. our socks, underwear and shirts, are produced to Oeko-Tex® Standard 100.
Sizes to fit
Quality also means you can find the right size. Our styles are available in up to 7 sizes to make sure the perfect fit for every size. We also cater for men with big feet: our best-sellers are available in shoe sizes of up to 52.
How old are your socks
In order to be able to check our production batches, we have incorporated a systematic 'weave fault' into the heel of our socks. This is a kind of 'barcode' which provides information on the year the socks were made.

The same price since 1999
The price of socks has remained the same for twelve years. The classic sockscription still costs just 98 francs, the same as it did in 1999.
When do your socks start to fade?
Faded flowers end up in the compost. Sour milk goes down the drain. And old socks? They normally end up back on our feet. Put them on or chuck them out?
