Not a storefront, it is in the Hilltop Executive Center on the east side of Milwaukee Avenue at the south end of north suburban Libertyville. The guys who shop here go for quality, so the hosiery is the British brand of Pantherella and most of the stock is a cotton blend. The majority of socks are the regular, just-under-the calf length and in subtle patterns. Appointments are recommended.
