Samar Cotton Marl Sock Blue

Description

GENEVIEVE SWEENEY SAMAR COTTON MARL SOCKS IN BLUE

Perfect for updating spring summer wardrobes, our Samar cotton sock is where heritage British manufacturing and contemporary design meet. Crafted by twisting together discontinued and end-of-line yarns, the result is a stylish blend of eye-catching, innovative and completely unique colour combinations.

THE YARN 
Made from soft, organic cotton, these socks are custom-spun by Genevieve herself to create a selection of totally unique colour blends – in this case deep blue, teal green and mustard yellow. These beautiful marls are then twinned with a contrasting heel, toe and cuff in deep blue cotton.

THE DETAILS 
Each sock is finished with Genevieve’s hallmark care and attention: note the seamless toes which ensure lasting comfort throughout the day.

SUSTAINABILITY CREDENTIALS 
To create the Samar sock, Genevieve approached a family-run mill based in Derbyshire, and after spotting the unusable end-of-line yarns, decided to rescue them from simply being thrown away. Many of the yarns were small batches of discontinued colours, so Genevieve let her creativity run wild, twisting them together and producing completely unique blends out of otherwise wasted product. Twisting the yarns together can take hours and is something most factories wouldn’t have time for; but for Genevieve, it’s all about embracing the joy of slow manufacturing – and in doing so creating something truly original and beautiful.

STYLE ADVISE
