The origins of the brand date back to the 16th century. Led by Scottish clans, the foundations for this fashionable success story were already being laid way back in this era. From the very beginning, the legendary argyle pattern and typical Burlington clip have been distinctive features in the incomparable brand personality. This unique recognition factor also ensured that Burlington became a real icon in the 80s with its Brit style.
To this day, the brand inspires millions of people with its clever combination of timeless tradition and the latest trends. And thanks to constant new creative patterns and a wide range of colours, the brand always keeps up with the times. And with the spirit of the times.

The original argyle can be recognised by its typical diamond pattern, which is crossed by so-called overchecks to create an unmistakable three-dimensional look. This typical Burlington pattern has become a true icon among styles and now, as a modern classic, represents what is known as timeless style.

With a wide variety of timeless designs, Burlington always has the right socks for every day, every style and every mood. Whether it's classic patterns, playful colours or fashionable experiments: thanks to the argyle pattern, these are always iconic and eye-catching styles.

Burlington brings colour to our feet. Thanks to our unique colour expertise, we offer a diverse range of creative, harmonious and sometimes daring combinations. In addition to classic, timeless styles, each season we introduce new sock styles in the latest fashionable colours. We are constantly reinventing our argyle pattern, so you can always find the colour to match your mood. From simple understatement to a strong fashion statement: our socks are always colourful for life.

Burlington WE CARE encapsulates our responsible attitude towards resources, our employees, and you — our customers. We see this as a path that never ends, where new steps are taken individually and collectively every day. Fairness, quality and inspiration are values that we prioritise daily, both internally and in our conduct.

To ensure the longevity of our styles, you can always count on our attention to the very highest production standards. This applies from the moment we select the finest yarns through to the processing of our materials and to the final production of your favourite Burlington styles. We always supply you with quality that delivers what it promises.

Since 2008, the quality of the fabric has been undergoing constant improvements and reinterpretation under the umbrella of the traditional FALKE brand. In Serbia, Slovakia and at our original location in Schmallenberg, we use exclusively high-quality materials to make your original Burlington products.

The production of a high-quality sock is a complex process, involving several stages. After knitting and turning, the toe area is closed and the sock is pre-shaped for a perfect fit. The socks are then treated and finished to make them soft, skin-friendly, hard-wearing and easy to care for.

The durability of Burlington socks is constantly guaranteed by rigorous testing. Using the Martindale method to evaluate resistance to wear and tear, our quality standards require the socks to handle an impressive minimum of 20,000 abrasion cycles. Why is this so relevant for you? Because socks are subjected to a variety of stresses and strains in everyday life simply as a result of totally normal movements, abrasion in the shoes or through washing. Thanks to outstanding materials, meticulous workmanship and stringent durability standards, our products take it all in their stride.
