A pumpkin orange in a low shoe, under a dark trouser: it is one of the few places in menswear where a bright colour passes without argument. It shows when you walk or sit, and disappears the rest of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 80% cotton, 20% polyamide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: knitted in Belgium and France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetail: pumpkin orange\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetail: military specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetail: 80% cotton, 20% polyamide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAn issue sock, in a civilian colour\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model was built to a military specification: knit density, resistance to repeated washing, a knit that holds without sagging. These are criteria of heavy use, not of superficial comfort. The pumpkin orange, on the other hand, has of course nothing regulation about it: that is the whole gap we are after, the construction of a field sock in a shade nothing justifies but pleasure. The khaki version stays in the original register.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e80% cotton, 20% polyamide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA pure cotton sock stretches and slips into the shoe after a few wears. The 20% polyamide gives elastic recovery: the sock regains its shape in the wash and holds the ankle. Like most \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sock\"\u003esocks\u003c\/a\u003e, they combine a natural fibre and a synthetic fibre, here polyamide, the nylon family. Cotton stays the large majority, which preserves breathability and feel. The knit is ribbed, medium density, and knitted in Belgium and France.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSize\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne size: the ribbed knit and the polyamide adapt to the shape of the foot. Their medium density suits a dress shoe as well as an ankle boot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to wear men's orange socks\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder flannel \u003ca href=\"\/en-us\/products\/utility-pant-fatigue-flanelle\"\u003etrousers\u003c\/a\u003e with white sneakers, as in our photos.

Turn them inside out before washing to protect the knit. Avoid the tumble dryer, which shrinks the foot and tires the elastic; air dry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Champ de Manoeuvres","offers":[{"title":"Orange","offer_id":43763662651681,"sku":null,"price":11.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Khaki","offer_id":43763662684449,"sku":null,"price":11.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/7115\/4005\/files\/chaussettes-army-champ-de-manoeuvres-1.jpg?v=1789671576","url":"https:\/\/champdemanoeuvres.com\/en-us\/products\/mens-orange-cotton-socks","provider":"Champ de Manoeuvres ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
