At Nobile 1982 the choice of the best summer socks depends mainly on how visible you want the sock to be and on the type of shoe.

If you prefer a knee-high/calf-length sock even in summer, at Nobile we recommend Filoscozia® and Mulberry Silk (including the lighter variants): they are yarns valued for breathability and comfort, ideal when you want an elegant look without sacrificing freshness.

If instead you want a more "summery" and invisible sock, at Nobile 1982 the right choice is no-show socks or ankle models, perfect with trainers and loafers in the warm months.

For Nobile 1982 the difference is simple and practical:

Nobile no-show socks cover toes and heel but remain completely hidden once the shoe is on.

Nobile ankle socks have a slightly higher cut: they rest at the ankle and may be visible with some footwear, but offer greater coverage.

These are two different solutions for two different needs: total invisibility vs broader coverage.

At Nobile 1982 by "foot liners" we mean the sock below ankle level, designed to be invisible when wearing shoes.

In practice, it is the same concept as the Nobile no-show sock: maximum comfort, zero visual impact on the outfit.

No. Nobile 1982 no-show socks are designed to remain discreet and neat even with loafers: Nobile's goal is to maintain an elegant style, without the sock peeking out unattractively.

With Nobile 1982 no-show socks this problem is minimised thanks to two key elements:

an elastic structure designed to adhere correctly to the foot

a silicone grip on the heel that helps the sock stay in place during walking

So, with Nobile, you can move comfortably without the typical annoyances of slipping no-show socks.
