Burghley socks with a contrasting heel and toe are made from leisure weight wool, featuring a seamless toe that gives comfort and durability.
The range of socks presented here are made by Pantherella and we think they are the UK’s best socks. They are made in Pantherella’s Zanetic Works factory in Leicester and available in a range of colours, designs and weights. There is a video about Pantherella that you can see here.

If you look in detail you can see a page in a “Blue Peter” book which shows John Noakes and Peter Purves inside Daniel Lambert’s waistcoat ! To be exact, it is the seventh Blue Peter Annual and features the three presenters in Girocopters on the cover.
