Baffin 100% Silk 5x3 Rib Tailored Socks

Baffin - 100% Silk 5x3 Rib Tailored Socks

Part of the Pantherella Luxury collection, the Baffin silk socks are the ultimate indulgence that offer strong, optimum comfort with a lustrous feel and shimmering appearance.

To knit Pantherella silk socks we use Swiss ‘Tram’ silk which is a yarn formed by twisting strands together to produce a thread with a shimmering appearance, excellent wearability and breathability.

Silk is the epitome of opulence yet our silk socks offer you a strong, flexible sock with a lustrous feel that is beyond comparison.

Even in warm conditions, our ultra-sheer silk socks remain cool and comfortable to wear, making them an exquisite evening dress sock.

Pantherella's Signature 'Seamless' Toe

The Baffin socks feature the famous Pantherella 'seamless' toe, for a virtually undetectable, extremely comfortable, flat seam.

Made In England Since 1937

Made at our factory in Leicester, England, since 1937, by generations of skilled workers; Pantherella socks are unrivalled for their quality, style and comfort.

What is Silk?

Silk is a naturally strong and lustrous fibre harvested in China from the continuous filament cocoon of the Mulberry silkworm.

An all-climate fabric, silk is warm and cosy in winter and comfortably cool when temperatures rise. Its natural temperature-regulating properties give silk this paradoxical ability to cool and warm simultaneously. Silk garments thus outperform other fabrics in both summer and winter. Silk worn as a second layer warms without being bulky.

In spite of its delicate appearance, silk is relatively robust and its smooth surface resists soil and odours well. While silk abrasion resistance is moderate, it is the strongest natural fibre and, surprisingly, it easily competes with steel yarn in tensile strength.

Silk takes colour well, washes easily, and is easy to work with in spinning, weaving, knitting, and sewing. Silk mixes well with other animal and vegetable fibres.
