Italian Army Tan Dress Socks

Italian Issue Dress Socks

These tan dress socks come from Italian Army stores. They are knitted from cotton and cut long enough to sit just below the knee, so they stay covered under uniform trousers and don't slide down into the boot. Collectors and reenactors use them to finish an Italian uniform correctly, and plenty of buyers wear them every day as a plain, tall cotton sock.

Features

• Cotton Knit — The sock is knitted from cotton, a soft and breathable fiber that feels comfortable against the skin on long days.
• Over-The-Calf Height — The leg runs up to just below the knee, which keeps the shin covered when you sit or cross your legs in dress trousers.
• Ribbed Leg — Vertical ribs run the full length of the leg and give the knit some stretch, so it grips the calf without a tight elastic.
• Fine-Knit Top Band — A denser, finer rib at the top forms the cuff that holds the sock up.
• Smooth Heel And Sole — The heel and underfoot are knitted flat, so there is less bulk inside a dress shoe or boot.
• Tan Colorway — The plain tan shade goes with khaki, tan and earth-tone uniforms and civilian clothing.
• Genuine Italian Army Issue — These socks were supplied to the Italian military and are not a commercial copy.

Genuine Italian Army Issue

These socks are original Italian Army kit, made to the service's own pattern of a tall cotton dress sock with a ribbed leg and a fine-knit cuff. For anyone putting together an Italian uniform, real issue socks matter as much as the outer garments. They also work as a hard-wearing everyday sock for anyone who likes a long cotton fit.
