True North Socks
Which direction should you head? Who should you listen to? Where should you go? This is a time to follow your inner compass and allow it to guide you through the pitfalls of the world. You know which way it’s pointing if you really stop and pay attention. Follow it to your own true north.
True North Socks come in four sizes and are constructed cuff-down with a slip stitch heel and wedge toe. The simple lace creates an interesting arrow pattern on the front of the sock with smooth stockinette on the back.
