Sea Island Cotton Socks
Can you make out the shiny little holograms on the tags of these socks? The farmers who grow this cotton go to a lot of trouble to guarantee you’re aware of its provenance. Gosipium barbadens – the scientific name of Sea Island Cotton – is the longest staple cotton plant on earth, and the yarn made from it is the most luxurious of all natural fibers.
But it don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing, and these puppies will make your feet sing. In spring. Or even in winter. Not to mention the colors. We’re talkin’ C-sharp Major in the tones department here, dude.
