Socks are at the base of men's fashion and, for many years, they were an often-overlooked aspect of the wardrobe. More and more men are placing as much importance on their socks as on their ties in a change that makes sense, since socks have much more contact with your skin even if they're not as visible as a tie. V.K. Nagrani makes some of the finest men's socks you can buy, and the Dirt Dozen is the ultimate sock assortment. It contains a dozen pairs of unique socks and no assortment is ever the same. There are past and present collection socks as well as future prototypes. Nagrani markets it as a "starter set" for your feet, and once you've made the switch from cheap, mass-produced socks, it would be hard to go back. Price: $175.
