Reading the listing
What to check before you buy this pair
Aviation pattern and saying
Airplanes and helicopters scatter across the knit fabric from cuff to toe. When you put your feet up, the phrase I WOULD RATHER BE FLYING shows across the soles.
Cotton rich knit blend
The fabric combines 80% cotton, 15% polyamide, and 5% elastane. Cotton keeps the sock breathable through long days, while polyamide and elastane provide flexibility to stay in place inside boots or oxford shoes.
Men shoe sizing range
These socks fit men shoe sizes 7 to 13, which corresponds to standard sock sizes 8 to 14. The ribbed cuff holds its position on the calf without sliding into your shoes.
Individual gift box packaging
Each pair arrives packed inside its own gift box. The packaging makes it ready to hand over for birthdays, Father Day, International Civil Aviation Day, or as a small stocking stuffer.

- GIFT OCCASIONS: Gifts for Christmas, birthdays, Father's Day, International Civil Aviation Day, or as a practical stocking stuffer
- PILOT SOCKS FOR MEN: Each pair of socks features a dynamic pattern of airplanes, helicopters, and aviation icons. The socks display the phrase "I'd Rather Be Flying"

Sizing
Match the shoe size, not the sock size
Novelty socks from this label are sold by the shoe size they fit, and the range on the listing is wide. If the wearer sits at the top of the range, the cuff will be shorter on them than in the photo.
