Established in 1937, Pantherella is a premium sock manufacturing company that is based in Leicestershire, England. Initially called Midlands Hosiery Mills, the company was founded by Louis Goldschmidt. Believing that uncomfortable and bulky men’s socks had to be transformed, Goldschmidt created innovative designs of lightweight and colorful socks with toe-linked seams that revolutionized the hosiery industry. Post-WW2, youth subcultures like teddy boys, mods, skinheads, scooterists, soul boys, rude boys, northern soul movers, and rockabillies adopted Pantherella socks.
