PrintedThis is a printed pattern, not the actual texture. The surface of the sock is flat — the drawing only imitates the material it depicts.

Four imitated textures pieced together. All four are printed patterns, not the actual textures.

Cable, tweed, marble and grain cut into panels and joined along hard seams, so you can compare the four drawings side by side.

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.
