Solar Socks Smoke

These are from the Tokyo-based line CHUP, which specializes in hand-stitched, small-batch socks worthy of wearing on their own… kind of a tall order in a country where it's customary to remove your shoes when you walk in the door. The brand name is an acronym for Classical Human's Universal Peace (obviously, right?), which conjures up the exact kind of folk art, celestial visuals, and spiritual imagery that inspire their designs. The attention to detail is serious — they only make a handful per day — and it makes for a pretty fantastic pair of socks.
