Shell Knit Socks in Black by Issey Miyake

These mid-calf socks come from Issey Miyake's Wool Shell Knits series — ‘see them as a group of seashells, winding up in a delicate formation... wear them, as if enveloped by seashells to experience the garments animation with every move.’

Using a combination of wool and nylon thread, the checkered pattern is knit with a link stitch to create a three-dimensional look resembling spiral shells. The compact knit twists expand when worn, creating a soft, light form. If you're feeling bold, style with the Tupper in Black by Wal & Pai.

Made in Japan.
