The Trig Socks are a love note to the combination of neons and neutrals. The pop of neon on top of a background of soft beige is just so eye-catching. These socks feature playful color-blocking, stripes, and geometric stranded knitting to add to the fun. Our soft, durable, and easy-care Uni Merino and Uni Merino Minis are a perfect complement to the design, and we know these socks will make you want to dance!
