ANTOINE PETERS for EFFIO | 2011

Inspired by the inevitable seam construction of the sock; the foot and heel. Often, these are a dissonant within the design, making a stripe or block pattern disrupted shortly. Now this is part of the design deliberately! The HUG has an eye-catching gradient where two colors increasingly - and with surgical evenness - mingle towards the middle of the sock. 'The colors already did, but are you're feet ready to HUG?' The BANG is inspired on the for Effio characteristic check, which Peters lets explode all over the sock. Putting this special sock on your feet provides an explosion of joy for the wearer and the foot. 'BANG!' Antoine Peters: "I always wear two different socks, because why would you wear two of the same? For me socks are like a daily little party!" Lay your hands on them at effio.eu.
