socks designed by Maxim Velčovský
The sock collection responds to the classic polka dot pattern. The artist Maxim Velčovský challenges this traditional motif by using imperfect shapes and crashing the composition. At first glance, the result is a familiar sock principle, but a second glance reveals scratched, distorted polka dots or chaotic clusters. This approach is based on the rigorous and perfect production system of the knitting machine, which is infected by an unknown virus.

The classic polka dot pattern is based on the perfect production system of a knitting machine. However, ours was infected by an unknown virus which produced a new pattern.
