History

iLux was started by Robert Cole to create beautiful, luxurious socks knit with wonderful knitwear yarns. According to the brand's About page, 20 years later ilux continues to deliver on its original vision. The brand describes itself as a small artisan business, with the founder involved in every step of the design process, from sourcing yarns around the world to directing the factory in how to knit these yarns on their knitting machines. All socks are knit in a factory just outside of Bangkok in Thailand; that factory has been in business since 1964 and is currently run by the original founder and his daughters. The About page also states that the founder was working on new socks for 2023.
