Interesting. Private Bankers are almost five times more likely to wear mismatched socks than Hedge Fund Managers. What shall we make of that?
Before we speculate and get ourselves into trouble here, we should set the scene.
Creative guy dating City girl thinks: I'm going to start a business and start a sock subscription business. And why did he do this? "Cuz it sounded like a good idea."
So he did some research and found that a very large majority of you wear mostly black socks, a large majority have socks with holes in them, and an even larger majority attribute the holes to the fact you're simply too busy.
(He also found that that most of you wear socks bought by your mum or partner, which means you have very nice women in your life.)
And so his business - SocksForSir - sells Pantherella socks, which are the best money can buy, for business or pleasure (meaning in black or blue).
They're available by subscription (4 pairs every six months for £35, or six pairs every six months for £49), and it's worth noting that these very same socks are available at the places you'd expect (Selfridge's, Harrod's and John Lewis) for a few more quid each.
Now you have no excuse.
Twelve percent of those surveyed said that "a better mum or partner" would make it easier to for them to look after themselves better.
SocksForSir can't help with that, and neither can we!

Madame A and Madame B live in penthouses down the hall from each other not far from The Square Mile. One works for an American bank, one is
just an American. Both require their identities to be secret for a
variety of reasons, but mostly because they'd like to stay out of hot
water with their partners and bank managers.
