Pantherella

Pantherella is a British luxury hosiery label founded in Leicester in 1937 by Louis Goldschmidt, originally trading as Midland Hosiery Mills before adopting the Pantherella name in 1945. It specialises in fine-gauge men's and women's dress socks in merino wool, Egyptian cotton lisle, silk and cashmere, known for fine linked, near-invisible toe seams and deep colour ranges. The brand sits within Pantherella International Group alongside HJ Hall and Scott Nichol. Socks typically retail around £16-£26 ($31-$45), with cashmere styles higher. Reports indicate knitting moved from the Leicester factory to Italy from 2025, with offices remaining in Leicester.
