Any recommendations for really good quality socks; nice feel even after many washes etc? I'm just a pringle chap myself, but would like to get some nice ones for Pops as socking filler.
Requirements: Navy blue, 100% cotton.
Any experience? Cost really not relevant, as long as not insultingly expensive.

For a long lasting sock the best I've had are Finisterre ones, they have been brilliant, lasted more than a year, and I abuse my socks.
For quality, but not longevity, Corgi and Duchamp are really good.
For something a bit different try MeUndies, decent socks, and subscribable. My current socks and grots are supplied by them. Highly recommended.
EDIT - just seen the Navy Blue/Cotton thing. So my post of no help whatsoever.
Ok, 100% cotton, so Bamboo is out!
How expensive does a sock have to be before it insults you?
£145 per sock.
I've been given Cordings socks a couple of times and they're lovely. Silly money (IMO) but I love wearing them 🙂

Surely you should have grown out of that by now.
CFH Senior wears and swears by Cordings.
I get mine from a place in Stockbridge, woollen though.
Some good choices thanks; those Cordings ones will fit the 'navy' bill, with a bit of heel/toe jazz. Like them myself!
The cotton was probably ill thought requirement; I was trying to avoid those mixed with modern materials (he dunny like them).
Cheers again.
Yay! I win 🙂
Hope he likes them.
I'll have a pair myself; nothing kicks off a good day like a new pair of socks 🙂
£145 per sock.
I have to admit, that is pretty insulting.
Found a discount code for 15% off too, which softens the blow for £40 for 3 socks!
This place is great. Ask a question > go back to work > check post > answer is there.
Cheeers 🙂
EDIT: WOOOAH, £7 postage???
£40 for 3 socks!
Getting a spare is a good idea 🙂
Those there merino ones from on-one
May not like the pirate motif
FAIL. 3 'pairs' of socks 🙂
I've actually stopped short of clicking 'complete checkout' because £7 postage is just naughty....and bordering on the insulting I referred to in OP.
£13 per sock? Ok. They're probably nice. £7 to post them? You robbing *******!
They have a shop in London 🙂
