MAZARIN grand faiseur is a brand of sock which embodies prestige, and as such is designed with France’s academics in mind, as well as any man of exceptional taste!

MAZARIN grand faiseur is the result of a collaboration between hosiery specialists and Alain Stark, tailor at the illustrious Stark and Sons at 16 rue de la Paix in Paris. MAZARIN grand faiseur has developed a range of socks in the same colours as those worn on the jackets of the habit verts (a class of French academician).  The colour of the silk that is used on the olive branch embroidery of their famous coats was the inspiration behind picking this bold colour. MAZARIN grand faiseur socks are made from the finest quality Egyptian cotton. The cotton is very long fibre and is highly resistant as a fabric. The cotton is combed to improve the strength and lustre, and is knitted together by hand. The result is a sock of the utmost comfort to the foot, even in socks with very fine thread. MAZARIN grand faiseur aims to provide the best, in order to satisfy even the most demanding of clients.

As well as the numerous habit verts, Stark and Sons have channelled their talent into creating other suits and various luxury accessories. The ties, made from the finest silks, are produced by hand in a Parisian workshop.  The same applies for the neck ties and smoking belts that they produce.  The greatest wools from the world’s best cloth merchants adorn the walls of the room where Alain Stark measures up and dresses some of the globe’s most important personalities. He is thoroughly recommended to all specialists and lovers of beautiful clothes that pass through the doors of Stark and Sons.  Those who visit the store can expect to benefit from a hundred years of expertise in providing customers with the highest quality clothing. The store, founded in 1910, has continued and maintained the tradition of French luxury clothing, according to Charles De Gaulle, who complained about the suits on Savile Row, which he felt were uncomfortable. Since then other heads of state, including Bill Clinton, Jacques Chirac and Vladimir Putin, as well as Raymond Barre and many others make up an illustrious list of former clients.

MAZARIN grand faiseur aspires to continue in this very prestigious line of succession, and uphold these standards of quality in the product.
