Discover where a brand or product originates
Burlington is a renowned premium sock brand famously known for its distinctive Argyle pattern. The brand's origin is rooted in the Schaftlach region of Germany, where it was established in 1975. Historically, the brand became a cultural icon in the 1980s, synonymous with high-quality British-style hosiery, despite its German corporate foundation.
Today, the brand's production is largely centered in Europe, particularly within the manufacturing facilities of its parent company in Germany and subsidiary plants in Croatia. This allows for meticulous quality control and the maintenance of the brand's premium market positioning.
In 2008, the brand was acquired by the FALKE Group, a prestigious family-owned textile company headquartered in Schmallenberg, Germany. Since then, the FALKE Group has served as the ultimate owner, ensuring that the legacy of the Burlington diamond pattern continues to be a staple in modern fashion. The brand is managed under their portfolio to leverage global distribution networks while maintaining its specific 'Preppy' heritage.
