Sock Subscription of the Month: The 5 Most Expensive Socks in the World
You’ve probably heard the expression, Never buy socks in pairs. It means you should only buy a pair of socks when you need them, rather than stocking up on extras so you always have a spare sock on hand in case one gets dirty or destroyed. It’s good advice if you want to save money, but it’s not good advice if you want to look your best every day—or even just look good on the occasional special occasion!
Why Are Some Socks So Expensive?
For starters, socks are really expensive because they are small, and therefore do not offer a lot of room for profit. But furthermore, some socks are expensive because they have crazy colors and patterns that you cannot find anywhere else. For example, if you want to wear a pair of purple ankle socks with black polka dots, you're going to have to pay at least $20 per pair.
American Tourister - $39.90
If you're looking for a sock subscription with a more affordable price tag, then check out American Tourister! This subscription offers one pair per month. And while they are still pricey, they are a great deal less expensive than other brands. Each pair is shipped in a beautiful gift box and includes fun socks like crazy color dress socks, cool socks for men, or cool mens socks. If you're looking to really splurge and spoil yourself (or someone else), then this is the perfect gift to do so!
Puma PowerCat I - $34.95
Ever wonder what $35 can buy you? With these socks, it's a well-cushioned pair that feels great on your feet. They're made from a soft cotton blend, and they have reinforced heel and toe for durability.
Cotton is a natural fiber so these socks will breathe better than synthetics. And if you don't wear them often, they'll last longer because cotton has more elasticity than manmade fibers like nylon or rayon.
Falke Pure Touch - $33.40
Falke Pure Touch socks are a two-time winner of the prestigious European Product Design Award. They are made from an innovative fabric that provides optimal comfort, breathability and temperature regulation, while remaining exceptionally soft to wear. Using patented AirText technology, Falke Pure Touch socks create an invisible cushioning effect so you can move freely without any restriction or pressure. Additionally, these mens ankle socks have a non-slip grip for added safety on every surface and last for up to three times longer than standard dress socks.
Falke Pure Touch is available through their monthly sock subscription service and offers three different levels to suit your needs - Classic ($33.40), Premium ($45) and Elite ($73). But wait!
