To welcome the 2025 Fall/Winter peak season, Shebag has also prepared some socks. What’s the difference between designer brand socks and regular socks?

First, because the price is high, the materials selected are of a higher grade. In fact, products like socks, gloves, and scarves are not even produced in Chanel’s or Dior’s own factories. They are outsourced. They are typically produced by high-end hosiery mills in France, China, and Northern Italy (such as Brescia, Biella, etc.) with whom they have long-term partnerships. The level of craftsmanship is higher than that of typical fashion brands.

In short, it’s because the brand value is high, so the materials are better. Since they aren’t produced in the brand’s own factories, why still buy the authentic socks?

Sock raw materials typically use Combed Cotton. High-end styles use Egyptian Cotton / Sea Island Cotton. Soft styles use Modal fiber, and summer styles use Lyocell Tencel. High-end products also use pure Merino Wool or a blend of 70% Cashmere + 30% Nylon (to enhance wear resistance). Chanel does not use 100% cashmere for socks because it is too fragile and wears out easily.

Chanel does not mass-produce its own socks; it relies almost entirely on long-term partner high-end OEM factories, similar to its outsourcing structure for knitwear and gloves. Brescia is the “world center” of the Italian hosiery industry, possessing the world’s densest concentration of high-needle-count circular knitting machines and high-end sock factories. The number of French-made Chanel socks is small, but they are used for styles positioned with higher “brand cultural value.”
