Everyday Comfort
Product Details

Our Men's Gentle Grip Cotton Socks in Urban Lair design are the number one solution for people who find regular socks tight and uncomfortable. These comfortable socks feature pacy multicolour stripes and dashes against sleek bases of navy, grey and black. A perfect workday sock.

Whether you need specific non-binding socks or you’re simply searching for the world’s most comfortable socks, our Gentle Grip socks will make your life more comfortable.

Made with a special mix of soft-touch cotton and modern man-made yarns. Cotton’s hollow fibres are naturally soft and breathable to keep your feet more comfortable, while modern man-made yarns improve fit, long-term shape, durability and wash.

At the core of every Gentle Grip sock is our famous non-binding HoneyComb Top™, which gently stretches and contours to the natural shape of your legs, easing pressure and restriction, preventing pinching and the unpleasant compression marks typically associated with regular socks. In fact, Gentle Grip’s innovative HoneyComb Top™ construction is scientifically tested to be twice as relaxed as a regular cotton sock!

Gentle Grip’s EasyFit™ technology improves elasticity and stretch to improve fit and increase comfort, and if you have limited mobility this can also help putting socks on and off.

Shrinking socks

Bought 12 pairs by degrees , size 12.
Was very pleased as they were a comfortable fit.
Unfortunately I've now become aware that some of them are tightening up and obviously shrinking. Disappointing as they've only been on a normal wash cycle.

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback for your recent purchase of our 3 Pairs Men's Cotton Socks - Urban Lair. We are sorry to hear that they did not meet your expectations.

We appreciate your feedback on the shrinkage and tightness of the socks. We will take a closer look at the quality and make any necessary improvements.

In the meantime, we offer a free return service if you would prefer to return them.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Soft top socks

Sadly these socks have not been a success. After only a few weeks holes have appeared along the heel. on two of the pairs of socks. They are too expsensive to only last a few weeks. i will need to find a different supplier.

Had we been aware, we would have gladly sorted this out for you right away. Please contact our customer service department and they will be happy to assist you with this matter.

Gentle Grip socks, purchased, worn and washed....

Fantastic socks, my husband loves these because they don't leave uncomfortable marks around his ankles. I have purchased these many times before, and they last well, however I do a 30 degree dark wash and I never tumble dry.... Will be purchasing again when he wears holes in them.. sadly a problem no sock can overcome!

OKish

Comfortable to wear and easy to take on and off. Some pairs the elastic was showing and had to be cut off, meaning some pairs lost their grip.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're glad to hear that you find our socks comfortable to wear and easy to put on and take off. We apologise for any issues you experienced with the elastic showing on some pairs. We will pass this feedback along to our team for improvement. Thank you for choosing our socks.
