Run Wild
Discover the comfort and sophistication of the Run Wild sneaker socks, meticulously designed for knitting enthusiasts who appreciate the luxury of hand-knit socks and aim to move away from mass-produced varieties. Perfect for warmer weather, these shortie socks are an ideal choice for spring and summer when traditional height socks may feel too warm or restrictive. The Run Wild socks showcase a brilliantly crafted top-down design that prioritizes the perfect fit. Featuring a soft flap at the back, these socks cushion and protect your achilles heel—a thoughtful detail for those who prioritize comfort during their daily activities or exercise routines.

The gauge for these delightful socks is 9 stitches per inch and 12 rows per inch in stockinette stitch, made easy with larger needles, allowing you to enjoy a satisfying knitting experience.
