When we talk about cashmere socks, it’s impossible to not mention Bresciani, the Italian brand for high-end, luxurious socks.
The Hisotry of Bresciani
The person behind Bresciani 1970 is Mario Bresciani. His love for socks inspired him to start his own company back in 1970 in Mantova, Italy.
Prior to this, Mario has worked in other manufacturers of socks, and accumulated considerable experience in this field.
Perhaps that is why it quickly led to the production of high-quality socks and achieve success first in Italy and then in many other countries around the world.
Initially, the company was called Mario Bresciani S.N.C, but in 1980 the name was changed to Calzificio M Bresciani S.R.L. (the Italian equivalent of an LLC), which persists to this day.
Since 1980, Bresciani began active development of contacts with various firms, shops, and brands.
They have been producing socks for well-known department store Bergdorf Goodman, brand Canali (2007) and others. Recently, Bresciani started to make socks for Berg & Berg.

In the 1990s and 2000s the company Bresciani has established a wide distribution network.
Today, this brand can be bought in the countries of North and South America, Africa, Europe, the Middle and Far East.
Interestingly, for a long time Bresciani specialized exclusively in men’s socks. At the beginning, it was only the model over-the-calf.
In the 1980s, with access to international markets, it has launched a line of short socks (crew dress socks), and in 2007, Bresciani finally launched and a line of women’s socks.
Today, the company is still family-run and operated by Mario Bresciani and his two sons – Massimiliano and Fabio.

Great brand of socks. Ive tried falke, pantherella but Bresciani are very nice, especially the short ribbed classic, struggled to find these in selfridges or harrods but eventually got them from luxace.com. I recommend to anyone who is looking for alternative brand.
