The Power Stripes are the version of this colourway for outfits where the sock is meant to be seen: the stripe is wide enough to read from across the room, precise enough to feel deliberate rather than casual.

The Forest Green stripe connects most naturally to the earth-tone palette — brown leather, khaki and olive trousers, camel coats, grey flannel. It adds unexpected warmth to an all-navy or all-charcoal outfit at the ankle.
