Mark Small

USD 12

Price in US Dollars (USD). This is a one-off purchase.

An array of small invented marks. None of them are letters in any alphabet.

Twelve drawn marks, each about 5 mm, repeated in an even array. They were designed as shapes, never as symbols.

About 37% of this pattern stays visible once a low-cut shoe is on. The rest is still drawn — you just will not see it.

Your rights on this order

Your legal rights under Dutch law are not limited to a fixed number of years. How long a product must last depends on what you can reasonably expect from it. Any commercial guarantee we offer is in addition to those rights, never instead of them.

Gradual fading over many washes is wear. A pattern cracking or peeling within the first few wears is a fault.

Printed and dyed socks can transfer colour when new, especially dark patterns on light footwear. Wash separately the first time.
