Socks are one of those essentials that people need but hate to buy. Are they a boring present idea? Not necessarily. Hosiery company Hansel from Basel makes quirky, colorful and high-quality pairs. You can buy socks in an array of saturated hues and poppy prints. For those who really want to make a statement with their legwear, the brand also makes awesome, bright polka-dot printed tights.
Hansel from Basel socks and tights available at Creatures of Comfort.
