The lace section on these toe-up socks reminded me of the undulating waves and overall essence of everything by the sea. The lace work that travels up the sock is hugged by two simple cables on either side. The lace section may look complicated, but is easy to remember once you get the hang of it. Since these are toe-up, you can adjust the height to whatever length you desire.
