Carmina. Viccel. Spier & Mackay.

is it just me or are the Viccel just never as elegant through the ankle. I have this exact pair, and like yours Here I find they bunch around the ankle too much. Something my Mazarin and Bresciani’s are much less guilty of.

viccel put me in mind of Loakes or Allen Edmonds. The recipe is right, but the fitting qualities are primitive and lacking subtlety. The bresciani are like gazianos, delicate, fitted and luxurious :)

Yeap, after some time wearing them, most of my Viccel do that but Mazarin or Bresciani, don't. But still good socks if you ask me.
