Making the world’s finest socks from the world’s finest yarns, Pantherella‘s Autumn Winter 2019 collection delivers a variety of luxurious socks that have been made in the same family owned factory in Leicester since 1937. Launching in January 2019, the Luxury and Vintage lines offer classic designs inspired by the history books and Scottish landscape, while Modern+ looks to video games and the digital world for its creative designs. New for AW19, Pantherella’s Merino Royale socks give weightless warmth and superior softness, thanks to ultrafine 120s Tasmanian merino wool. Featuring elegant bird’s-eye jacquards and diamond motif patterns, these designs are presented in winter tones of dark oak, Bordeaux and bottle green – creating the ultimate dress sock.
Inspired by the rugged beauty of the Scottish Highlands, the latest Luxury collection features classic designs and sophisticated motifs across a range of key winter styles. Knitted from Mongolian cashmere, the brand’s cashmere socks offer a palette reflective of the country’s mountains, deep lochs, ancient woods and hidden beaches. Combined with highlights of magenta, copper and ice blue, Heather Marl and Loch Marl are given a modern update, while still delivering supreme warmth and comfort.
The Vintage Collection combines the history books with the medieval fantasies seen in current popular culture; a magical array of traditional styling, brought up to date with a modern take on design classics. Historical herringbone, houndstooth, windowpane and paisley patterns are given modern digital details and vibrant colour touches executed through fine gauge Merino Wool and Fil d’Ecosse.
Pantherella’s Modern+ Collection sees directional styles inspired by video games and the wider digital world. Looking to social media and the news trends, the designers use oversized bold patterns and smaller scale digital details to create a range of wearable, contemporary socks. Explosive colour combinations of mustard, petrol blue, chilli red, burnt orange and emerald contrast with diagonal arrows, abstract diamonds and paisley patterning, to deliver a trend focused collection of socks for the modern, fashion conscious man after a dash of individualism to finish his look.
