Our Story

From Racale to Nobile

Since 1982

Our Made in Italy Story

The Nobile craft sock workshop was founded in Racale in 1982, starting out as little more than a small atelier. It was the golden age of Italian sock making, and Racale was its undisputed capital. After difficult years — including the 2008 crisis, which closed 90% of local workshops — we chose to revive the noble Italian yarns. From this determination, NOBILE was born.

A Truly Italian Story

Nobile 1982 Craft Sock Workshop

From the sock capital, Racale, we are here to uphold the reputation of our region. For over 40 years, we have crafted socks of every kind for well-known national and international brands. Every day, we continue our pursuit of perfection, and after millions of pairs produced, through Nobile we want to offer you our vision of the perfect sock.

Premium Yarns

Craftsmanship, technology, and premium yarn quality. We use genuine certified Filoscozia® Cotton Yarn, offering shine, softness, freshness, and zero friction on the skin — from hand-picked extra-long staple cotton to artisanal Italian manufacturing processes.

Nobile Italy

From the noblest yarns, through the most careful production processes, to a refined style. The days when wearing a pair of socks was just a simple necessity are over. ANobilesock is designed to enhance your day with superior comfort and to offer you a more sophisticated style.

Perché Nobile

Italian quality, constant commitment, noble yarns, all crafted within the family. Like in the old days.

Those who choose us believe in the value of Made in Italy.

Those who choose us prefer quality (and sustainability) over fast fashion brands.

Those who choose us know that the small details, even the seemingly imperceptible ones, say it all.

The perfect recipe for a valuable product comes from the combination of several ingredients:

- Unique yarns such as hand-picked, extra-long staple Mako cotton (very rare) and the most elastic Lycra in the elastometer.

- Processing these raw materials with the best technologies available.

- A team of artisans with decades of experience, able to harmoniously combine everything with design.

The result of this recipe is a refined design for every occasion in your life, socks made from authentic, certified Filoscozia®(not Filo di Scozia), and superior comfort.

This is NOBILE.

Nobile yarns you won’t find with any other brand

Many talk about FILO DI SCOZIA, but only ONE is the true and original. Chances are that until now you’ve only worn non-certified socks. At NOBILE, we use the authentic Filoscozia® yarn. Each pair comes with a special holographic label that certifies it.

You might be wondering what the difference is. For many, it’s a discovery they never go back from. Click below to find out.

Our socks are Made in Italy, entirely sewn in Racale, a town based in the south of Italy, known for being "the city of socks" thanks above all to the high skills developed by local craftsmen.

Our socks are made with the best cotton in the world and are more resistant than socks made by common cotton.

However, to better protect the natural shine properties and durability over time, it is recommended to wash by hand in cold water, with a non-aggressive neutral detergent.

Just leave the socks to soak in cold water with the detergent for less than 15 minutes, then rinse them, squeeze them, "beat" them and hang them out to dry.

The socks do not need to be ironed and can be worn as soon as they are dry. On the leg, they won't show any kind of wrinkles.

After taking charge of your order, it takes about 1-2 working days to process the order and 4-7 working days for shipping and delivery.

Certainly. At checkout, just enter the other person's name and address.

If it is a gift, remember to enter your email address and not that of the beneficiary, so that it is you who receives order confirmation, shipping and tracking notifications.
