i've seen those in stores in europe, but never online, or anywhere in the states. i would suggest trying to contact a euro-based website like subside to see if they can get them.

They aren't a special version of the Portugal socks. The players are just wearing their normal white ankle height training socks. They still have to pull on the top halves of the match socks though because it is a required part of the team uniform.

Here is a MLS example.

The best quality socks will come from a running specific store.
