Vertical Stripe
A XOAB classic, the vertical stripe should be named "because-we-can." Our proprietary machine software allows us to use 15 colors in one "course," or revolution of the knitting cylinder, and Neil created the Vertical Stripe to test that. Each color palette is inspired by a different mood and place. Collect the whole set, mix and match, live dangerously.
3-5 day standard shipping is free in the US.
XOAB socks are made in America from US-sourced materials and knit in small batches, using custom-dyed yarn, on our own knitting machines.
Our selection of colors and patterns will change over the course of a season, depending on what we’re knitting. Let us know what you like, or if you’d like us to bring back a favorite design; rickandneil@xoab.us.
Details
We designed our socks for comfort with a perfectly smooth toe seam, a little extra spandex for a perfect fit and 200-needle quality for fine pattern detail and an ultra-smooth feel.
We’ve added an elastic arch band, made the heel slightly taller, and use nylon reinforcing for wear resistance.
Our cotton socks are 70% Extra Long Staple Cotton / 25% Nylon / 5% Spandex. Our wool socks use the same amount of Nylon and Spandex, and the remaining 70% is US-grown and -sheared 18.5 micron Merino wool.
XOAB socks, including our wool socks, can be machine-washed. Turn the socks inside-out before washing in cold water, and tumble dry on medium heat.
We guarantee our socks. If you have a problem with them, or are displeased for any reason, contact us at rickandneil@xoab.us, and we’ll do our best to make it right.
Sizing
Our Regular size will fit most people, from a US Women’s shoe size of 6 to a US Men’s 11. Our Large size overlaps that range, from US Men’s 10 to 14.
If you’re taller, or want a slightly higher sock, the Large is also about an inch longer in the leg.
