"The Burgundy 007 DB5" James Bond Socks - By The London Sock Exchange

A timeless car. A thrilling chase. Get set to put your foot down in style. Introducing "The 007 DB5" James Bond Socks by The London Sock Exchange. Created specially for the anniversary of GoldenEye, this is an update of the original design, in a new maroon melange colourway. 

Backstory.  This special edition of The 007 DB5 captures an iconic motoring moment through the Riviera – and, set in a deep burgundy, these socks really are all about smooth curves and sharp tailoring.

Details. Each and every piece is crafted for comfort and style, woven with 200 needles - the highest gauge used on socks. Due to the density of this weave, the socks are not only finer but also stronger than your average pair. The toe is hand­linked for a perfect, seamless finish and maximum comfort. Each pair of James Bond socks is finished with a honeycomb welt, to give a more comfortable, flexible fit around the calf.

Material. 69% cotton, 30% nylon, 1% elastane. The sock is principally constructed out of cotton; the finer nylon fibre is used for the detailed motifs and elastane is used in the ankle band to make sure it stays up on the calf.

Size. 7-12 (UK) / 41-47 (EU)

Styling notes. No need to hide behind a smoke screen here. Eject these into the world alongside a well engineered dark denim trouser, black tassel driving shoe and, of course, a fully fastened belt for a look that’s not just slick, but absolutely bullet-proof.

The maker. Socks can’t change the world. But they can put a smile on your face. Since The London Sock Exchange  launched in 2014, they’ve been on a mission to do just that. Today, they’re an independent British design studio dedicated to making amazing socks, for a reasonable price, and upholding the highest standards in sustainability. From their British studio they conceive socks which are playful, contemporary and full of charm. They then work with carefully-selected partners and manufacturers to ensure the highest, most ethical standards in crafting their socks. That means every single pair is knitted with 200 needles for next-level detail and a finer, stronger finish, and is finished by hand for a seamless fit.
