Extra long for men who don’t want any chance of an exposed ankle ruining their look while in that important business meeting, BOSS George Plain 98% Mercerised Cotton Plain Knee High Socks are made in Italy using the finest fil d’ecosse Egyptian cotton. This fine, smooth and strong thread is further mercerised for a superior, silky yarn. The socks are a fine gauge — the only suitable gauge for wearing with formal footwear — but durable with extra reinforcement for the entire sole area, and at the stress zones. Proper handlinked toes ensure pressure free smooth seams for foot comfort throughout the day.
