Sock WholesalersMen's socks: cushioning, deep ribs and a trainer crew
Three styles in the catalogue are recorded as men’s: a basketball crew with terry knitted into the sole, a deep-ribbed professional crew, and a breathable autumn crew with an anti-slip sole for trainer wear. They share a length and a customer type rather than a construction, so the useful comparison is the sole, not the colour.
The useful comparison is the sole, not the colour
Terry in the sole
Two of the three carry cushioning knitted into the sole during the main knit and boarding-set afterwards. The loft on the approved sample is what bulk ships.
Deep rib, plain foot
The professional crew is the plain-footed option: a tall ribbed cuff and a shaped heel, with no grip and no pad, for buyers who sell a sock on fit rather than on features.
Anti-slip for trainers
The autumn crew is the odd one out and the useful one for indoor markets: a breathable knit with an anti-slip sole, sold where socks are worn without shoes or inside trainers.
Men and unisex overlap
Several compression, athletic and grip styles are recorded as unisex. They are available to a men’s line; they simply sit in their own groups, so a men’s range is assembled across categories.
Order size and timing
1,000 pairs per style for bulk orders. Sampling typically 3–5 days after you confirm the brief and artwork; costing within one working day.

Questions buyers ask about this category
Which of these is the plainest sock to start a men’s line with?
The professional cushioned crew is the closest to a plain sock: a deep ribbed cuff, a shaped heel and a cushioned sole, with no grip treatment and no logo requirement built in. It reads as an everyday sock rather than as a piece of sports equipment, which is usually what a first season needs.
Do you knit men’s socks in larger sizes?
Made to your size range; a typical XS–XXL is available on request. Give the size breakdown you sell in the brief and the sample is knitted to it, rather than to a generic run that has to be re-graded later.
Can a men’s style be bought in a unisex construction?
Yes. The compression and athletic styles recorded as unisex sit in their own groups in the catalogue and can be ordered for a men’s range. They are costed as their own styles, because the construction is what sets the cost, not the label.
What is the minimum order?
1,000 pairs per style for bulk orders, a starting point for negotiation rather than a fixed floor. Your quotation confirms it for your exact construction, with the sample lead time in the same reply.
