Laddered Pantherellas – ARGHHHHH!

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

So today is a bad day – I’ve laddered my socks.  Red Pantherella BIG DEAL SOCKS SPOTTED in Soho – ARGHHHHH!  Though it’s not all bad, as I quite like the idea of laddering socks – as it shows how damn fine (as in the fabric’s fine) they are.  Pantherella’s are famously fine, so they don’t roush in your shoes – so I’m not sooo annoyed by the fact.   WARNING  – watch out for laddering ; – )

No socks + velvet skull slippers

So it’s a no sock day today : – (  Just a pair of skull motif velvet slippers from Trickers SPOTTED in my kitchen in Brixton whilst doing some early morning lounging  . . .

Green lambswool + Hunters + Twickenham

Green lambswool boot socks SPOTTED at Twickenham (for the England / Ireland 6 nations rugby match) accompanied by a nice pair of chocolate brown Hunter wellies SPORTED by the sockman.  Mmmmmm – toasty and dry feet ; – )

Blue Pantherella pleasure sock accompanied by a pair of brown suede Miu Miu loafers SPOTTED at Bristol Temple Meads train station, platform 5 and SPORTED BY the Sock Man (me!).  One of my favorite sock / shoe combos ; – )

+ finally a wee plug for my father’s burglar alarm company, which sells the best monitored alarm systems in the UK.  Alarms that don’t go BRRRING but talk to you instead!

Pantherella mix + bathroom radiator

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

A random selection of Pantherellas SPOTTED on my Brixton bathroom radiator – literally hung out to dry!  Mostly navy blue Pantherella pleasure socks (the work horse of my sock drawer) – with some Pantherella red big deal socks mixed in.  Mental note – more big deal sock wearing = more big deal making ; – )

Alarm Monitoring from the Alarm Monitoring Company, who have been providing monitored alarm systems for over 15 years.

So we’ve just set up a new blog from the Sock Man.  The last one lost a bit of focus, so I thought we’d start afresh with a new platform, new focus and new socktastic content.  So please ENJOY!
