HEEL TREAD HT-B194 Socks
10,00€
From back when watching Formula One was like watching a soap opera – it had no lack of controversy, cheating, moral conflict, tragedy and more than a few plot twists. Michael Schumacher drove it like he stole it and ended up taking the Benetton B194 to his first of many, many Drivers’ Championship titles in 1994 – although the FW16 was able to secure the Constructors’ Championship for Renault-Williams that year.
For us it was the Benetton/Mild Seven gorgeous livery that sealed the deal – cigarettes might be bad for you but didn’t they use to make all the best liveries?
* a very special thanks to Wout Jonasse for this great design idea!

Some say you can’t call yourself a true petrolhead if you’ve never owned an Alfa Romeo.
We wouldn’t go so far as saying that – though we certainly do understand the appeal – but we can all agree that it’s hard to think of a car maker that’s more intimately associated with motorsport than Alfa Romeo, a brand that practically established the sport that later became Formula 1 – and was also the starting place in the business for a young Enzo Ferrari.
Anyone who’s ever heard the noise of one of these old Alfa tuned engines, or one of the modern V6’s, has reason enough to never buy an electric car – we are firm believers of protecting ALL endangered species.
The Giulia GTA (“A” for Aleggerita) was a lightweight version of the Giulia GT production car from the 60’s and its track version quickly became a bit of a racing legend in touring car championships the world over.

In 1991, Mazda became the first Japanese automaker – and only rotary-engine racer – to win the world’s most demanding endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
In the end, it came down to the reliability of the Wankel rotary engine that made up for the lack of speed against the mighty Jaguar and Mercedes competitors. The unique conditions that enabled this surprising victory – along with a crowd pleasing high-revving engine with F1-like noise – immediatelly elevated the 787B to racing legend status. The orange and green diamond Renown livery makes for a pretty cool looking pair of socks, even if you first had to google “wankel rotary engine” to get what all the fuss is about. 80% Combed Cotton, 17% Polyamide, 3% Elastane.

Heel Tread’s garage welcomes Hollywood royalty.
The Mustang Shelby GT500 is just one of those eternal machines – as if the “regular” Mustang wasn’t already one of the most instantly recognizable cars anywhere in the world.
Its pedigree goes beyond being arguably the most beautiful and extreme Mustang ever built. It’s also been immortalized twice in the silver screen and starred in some of the most spectacular car chases ever filmed – whether you’re a fan of the 1974 or 2000 version of the movie Gone in 60 Seconds. It has since become a pop icon known simply for it’s screen name, Eleanor.

Esprit. Lotus Esprit.
The Lotus Esprit S1 was the first version of the mythical british model, a car that became known for its avant garde shape and great handling mostly due to Lotus’ relentless weight reduction obsession.
But it was when it plunged into the Mediterranean and transformed in to an impossibly cool submarine in one of the most surprising car chases in any 007 movie, a move that made Bond and car fans around the world gasp. As well as being an amphibian it could shoot torpedoes, drop sea mines and launch surface to air missiles. If only modern SUV’s could keep up with 1970’s technology…

Although beautifuly styled by Pininfarina and a huge commercial hit in Europe, the Peugeot 405 family saloon was not exactly what most would call an exciting car.
But then came Peugeot Talbot Sport with the turbochargers. The 405 T16 Grand Raid became a jaw dropping coupé with top rally capabilities and, in the hands of Ari Vatanen, broke the Pikes Peak record in 1988 and had two consecutive wins of the Paris-Dakar in the following years.
We went with the the impossibly cool Dakar livery as the inspiration for this design,
because… look at it!
