Compare and buy Ted Baker socks

Following our last post ‘do designer socks make good Christmas gifts for men?’ we have had several of our followers coming back to us by email expressing their interest in the Ted Baker socks collection, and asking for some help with where to get Ted Baker socks from, at the best price and by a credible website who won’t provide a bad overall customer service.  So with this in mind, I personally recommend Mainline Menswear, who have never failed to deliver on anything, especially customer service and getting my socks or anything else to me on time.

So, here are the top three Ted Baker socks from Mainline Menswear brought to you from Fashion World Today

Do designer socks make good Christmas presents for men?

We asked 100 of our followers if they thought designer socks made a good Christmas gift? We aimed our question at the male market. I think everyone knows a female is much less likely to appreciate a pair of socks for Christmas, well, unless they are for your Nan!

Going on the feedback we received the basic answer is ‘yes’  they do however; the brand of the socks is a very if not the most important factor. For example, getting your boyfriend a pair of ‘designer socks’ from Matalan is not going to be as appealing as a pair of nifty Lyle and Scott designer socks this winter. Other brands which came up in the feedback where: Happy socks, Hugo Boss socks, Armani Socks, Ralph Lauren socks, Paul Smith socks and Ted Baker socks, although there were several mentions that Ted Baker can be found at Boots. As far as we are aware, boots are not selling Ted Baker socks, but there already is this mental connection made between brand and store, so Ted Baker is perhaps the lesser of the choice our of all of the above mentioned.

Buying the socks from an authorised stockist is key, no one wants a knock off Nigel pair of socks off eBay, and presentation boxes where also very popular however, this will bite into your budget, as these lovely gift boxes can actually cost more than the socks in the first place.

The great thing about getting a pair of designer socks as a present is you can achieve it with a £10 budget should you wish, they are quite flexible in sizes, so quite unlikely they will need to return them having being too small or too large. Designer socks can make a person feel more confident, and as our feedback shows, this would make a great Xmas gift for a loved one as it can make you feel more sexy!

There are several pictures of designer socks over several mentioned brands with links to help you with your ideas of what kind of designer socks are available for men this winter.
