Prodotti e Materiali Nobile 1982 - FAQs

 

 

Where are Nobile 1982 socks produced?

Our socks are entirely Made in Italy, produced and packaged in our historic sock factory in Racale, Puglia, a region known as "the city of socks" thanks to the high craft expertise developed by local master sock makers over the decades.

What is Filoscozia® cotton and why is it special?

Filoscozia® is a long-staple Egyptian Makò cotton yarn, subjected to double mercerisation. This process gives it a natural silk-like sheen, superior softness, greater durability and the ability to maintain shape and colour over time. It is considered the finest cotton in the world for the production of high-end socks.

What types of yarns do you use?

Our collections exclusively use carefully selected premium yarns: Filoscozia® (double-mercerised Egyptian Makò cotton), Mulberry Silk (the world's finest silk, hand-harvested), Hircus Goat Cashmere (superior softness and warmth), certified organic cotton (for the sports line) and Merino Wool. Each yarn is selected to ensure comfort, durability and an unmatched wearing experience.

What makes Nobile 1982 socks different from ordinary socks?

Our socks stand out for the quality of the yarns, the Italian craft manufacturing and the attention to detail. We produce a limited number of pairs to guarantee the highest quality. Each pair is designed to offer prolonged comfort, superior breathability and a durability that ordinary socks cannot match.

What are Chiffon socks?

Chiffon socks are our ultra-lightweight line in pure Mulberry Silk or Filoscozia®. Fresh, light and incredibly soft, they are ideal for the warmest days and for special occasions such as weddings and formal events. They keep feet comfortable and dry without the stress of traditional elastic.
