Because Dropping $1,500+ on Socks Is the Ultimate Power Move
Luxury fashion has always been a playground for the rich, the stylish, and the absolutely ridiculous. But when it comes to socks, most people draw the line at a nice wool pair from a department store.
And then there are the 1% of sock enthusiasts—the ones who see $1,500+ socks and say, “Yes, I need those.”
So what makes these ultra-expensive socks so special? Let’s break down the most outrageously priced socks on the market today.
Gabriela Hearst’s Luxury Cashmere Socks – Up to $1,600 for a Pair
If you thought a few hundred dollars was the peak of sock luxury, Gabriela Hearst is here to say, “Hold my cashmere.”
Two of the most insanely priced socks on the market right now come from this luxury designer:
1. The Oshun Knit Socks – $1,500
✔ Made from 100% cashmere (because regular wool is for peasants)
✔ Ultra-soft, handcrafted luxury
✔ Designed to be worn inside the world’s most expensive loafers—or just casually lounging in a mansion
2. The Leto Knit Socks – $1,600
✔ Also made from 100% cashmere
✔ Sky/Cobalt/Dark Navy color combo (because luxury must have options)
✔ A bold statement that says, “Yes, I spent over a grand on socks.”
Both of these options are absurdly expensive, ridiculously soft, and possibly more exclusive than some designer handbags.
Harry’s of London’s Cervelt Socks – $1,500
Before Gabriela Hearst entered the luxury sock game, Harry’s of London held the crown for the most expensive socks.
✔ Made from Cervelt, an ultra-rare fiber from New Zealand Red Deer
✔ Only 100 pairs ever made
✔ Softer and lighter than cashmere
✔ Naturally wrinkle and pill-resistant
Cervelt is often called the “diamond of clothing fibers,” and considering that only 20 grams of it can be harvested from each deer per year, it makes sense why these socks are priced like fine jewelry.
If you want to walk on $1,500 worth of ultra-rare deer fluff, these are the socks for you.
Luxury or Lunacy? Are These Socks Worth It?
Spending over a thousand dollars on socks is either an incredible flex or a cry for help.
Are they comfortable? No doubt.
Are they exclusive? Definitely.
Are they a status symbol? If you need your feet to scream “I’m richer than you”, then yes.
But let’s talk real-world sock math for a second.
For $1,600, you could instead get:
✔ Over 200 pairs of fully custom socks with your own design, logo, or branding.
✔ Enough socks to never do laundry for a year (which, let’s be honest, is real luxury).
✔ Socks for your entire company, sports team, or family reunion.
And unlike Cervelt or luxury cashmere socks, you wouldn’t have to wear them in constant fear of stepping in something tragic.
Are Socks the Next Status Symbol?
Someone once asked us if luxury socks mean socks are becoming a status symbol.
Here’s our take:
✔ Socks are only as luxurious as you make them.
✔ It’s not about spending the most—it’s about wearing something unique to you.
✔ Your sock game should match your personality, not just your bank account.
If you’ve got $1,500+ lying around and NEED to own the most expensive socks ever made, go ahead—flex on us.
But if you’d rather create socks that actually represent you, your brand, or your team—without needing to take out a loan—we’ve got you covered.
