The Forebel summer collection of 2019 is all about contrast. Contrast that can be found in nature: how the sand on the beach seems to be immovable yet is ever-changing, how the ocean’s surface is like an empty landscape while underneath the surface it is filled with vibrant life, and how the quiet ocean can transform into a raging sea when it meets the rocks.
The Forebel stylist was inspired by the contrasts in mother nature and combined different kind of knits together. An open pique knit with a closed dot, or dropping a few stitches here and there to create a fishing net structure. The combination of all these different knits is what created a variety of patterns and structures that makes the socks wearable, light and fresh during those hot summer days.
The fishing net structured sock doesn’t only provide a refreshing feeling during the summer but is also a tribute to the origin of the sock. Fishing nets from Greece, England or from our home country the Netherlands are recovered and transformed into nylon. We combine this with 100% organic cotton to get the super soft and comfortable Forebel.
