Striped socks — crew stripes, ultralight stripes and fine rib stripes in organic cotton

Democratique makes three distinct striped constructions, each for a different occasion. The Athletique Classique Clean Stripes is a heavy-rib crew sock with a bold white-ground stripe band — for sneakers and loafers. The Originals Ultralight Stripes is a fine-gauge sock with micro-stripes so subtle they read almost as a solid from a distance — for dress shoes. The Originals Fine Rib Stripes features a two-colour fine rib stripe — Palm Springs Blue, Cold Orange, and more — for casual tailoring.

All constructions are knitted from organic combed cotton at 200-needle density with a hand-linked toe seam. All styles are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified. Available in EU 36–40 and EU 41–46 — size guide.
