Editorial Note Dolce & Gabbana brings its Sicilian exuberance to an unexpected canvas: the everyday sock. Knitted from a 70% cotton and 30% virgin wool blend, this mid-calf style is distinguished by vertical sequin stripes running along the cuffs, adding a flash of considered glamour at the ankle. Made in Italy, it exemplifies the house's conviction that no detail is too small for decoration. Wears well with wool gabardine trousers and leather loafers for a studied contrast of formal and festive. Size & Fit Fits true to size. Take your normal size. Mid-calf length with a gently elasticated cuff that holds without constricting. Mid-weight knit with a soft, breathable handle thanks to the cotton-dominant blend. Details and Care Material: 70% Cotton, 30% Virgin Wool Colour: Off White Made in: Italy Care instructions: Hand wash only Frequently Asked Questions Do these socks fit true to size, or should I size up? They fit true to size. The available size L corresponds to a European shoe size 40-45 in Dolce & Gabbana's standard sock sizing, so most men wearing a medium to large European shoe size will find L the correct choice. Are the sequins secure, and will they withstand regular wear? The sequins are stitched into the knit structure of the cuff rather than glued, which means they are significantly more durable than adhesive-applied embellishments. Hand washing in cool water and laying flat to dry will preserve both the sequins and the wool fibres over time. How do I care for the virgin wool content without shrinking the sock? Virgin wool fibres are more sensitive to heat and agitation than standard wool, so hand washing in cool water with a gentle detergent is strongly recommended. Avoid wringing and allow to air dry flat, away from direct heat sources.
