NEIL & MICHAEL.........web boys extraordinaire


FOUNDERS BABY-ELEPHANT.CO.UK, LONDON
"I didn't realise that socks could make you feel sexy"
BABY-ELEPHANT STYLE
Neil (left) blames me for encouraging an expensive sock habit he never had before. Michael, on the other hand, needs no help in the dapper dressing department. By his own admission he dresses like his dad. Despite their disparate dress codes they've worked together for 8 years building their design business with clients ranging from Calvin Klein to sox-populi.com and like all good web designers they're based in Hoxton and sport the casual 'we don't really try but everything's coordinated' look.
Neil is particularly proud of his Converse sneakers (picked up in Shanghai) that are the perfect colour to go with denim (catch the laces!) paired with Pantherella houndstooth black & white socks for a great contrast. Michael's blue & red Pringle socks pick up all the colours in his check trousers, shirt and sweater. Country brogues & argyle. Excellent!
DREAM SOCKS
Good quality socks in merino wool or cotton that don't make your feet sweat, especially with trainers. Socks that cause a stir when you cross your legs and flash a bit of colour. Love it!
