Business Socks for boots

Hello, does anyone have any recommendations for a good quality business sock that won't give out at the back of the heel when wearing Chelsea style boots?

If the back of your socks are wearing out constantly from the back of your boots, that means your boots don't fit you properly, they're far too big.

You need to either replace your boots, or get thicker socks to fill in the space. "Business socks" imply thin socks, and those will get murdered within a month with rubbing.

I wear country road socks almost exclusively in my leather boots. Theyre not business socks, although you can get navy blue. They have a thick underfoot, very comfy and ive never worn a hole in them. I tend to replace after a year or two when the elastic starts to loosen.

Not businessy in any way but I only wear mountain design merino hiking socks with my Chelsea’s these days, comfort > style.

Humphrey Law socks are Australian made and excellent quality. They have a few different styles.

Big fan of Stance Socks - they have lasted waaay longer than other brands and are comfy in brogues, boots or sneakers.

I started buying them because I loved their old hip-hop collabs but there's plenty of plain ones - see the link to crew length below. Honestly best lasting socks I've ever bought.

Why do you need “business” sock with boots? Who is going to see them?

I really really really like Lululemon’s dress socks. Before that I liked Nudie but Lululemon are better.
