HEEL TREAD HT-ST185-Socks

An underdog by all accounts, the Toyota Celica GT-Four was the car that effectively ended the European domain of the WRC, becoming the first Japanese competitor to race with a turbocharged AWD car and grabbing wins and titles like no other before it.
The ST185 with the Toyota Castrol livery became the most iconic version, with Carlos Sainz being the pilot that most consistently drove it to victory.

A road legal V8 engined race car which stood a mere 40 inches from the tarmac… need we say more? The inspiration for the desgin were Gulf Oil colors, which in combination with the sweeping lines of the Ford GT40 made it arguably the most iconic race car of all time.

The maddest hot hatch of the 80s makes its way to our garage. The Renault 5 (R5) Turbo designed by Bertone, was at the time the most powerful production French car with its 160 hp 1.4 turbo engine mounted in the trunk and insanely big wheel arches and air vents. Originally built to replace the aging Alpine A110 and compete with the dominating Lancia Stratos, it enjoyed immediate, although limited, success in the european rally scene, with its crowning achievement being a 1981 Monte Carlo Rally victory at the hands of Jean Ragnotti – fun fact, Carlos Sainz also drove one! Unfortunately it would soon be outclassed by the emergence of Group B and its monstrous machines, especially the 4-wheel drive competitors with a clear dirt track advantage over the 2-wheel rear drive R5 Turbo, even with the 350 hp evolution of the Maxi Turbo. Proof that cult status can be achieved even without a long list of victories. Only 1600 were ever produced but you can still get a pair of them right now! 80% Combed Cotton, 17% Polyamide, 3% Elastane. We use seamless knitting to create a sock with no stitches.

It gave us the first BMW M3. It is by far the best looking 80’s sedan, it has the coolest stance and the coolest DTM paint job that made our life very very easy… Can you tell it’s one of our favorites?

“Racing is the best way to test production cars and victory is the best sales tool.”
– Jean Rédélé, Racing Pilot and Founder of Alpine
The Alpine A110 has been recreated for the modern era, but its original story began six decades ago with Jean Rédélé and the first A110 – and, évidemment, a lot of racing in the Alps (hence, the name Alpine) while eating baguettes au fromagge. Rédélé, also knew that lighter cars go faster, because the A110, although sometimes equipped with less powerful engines than its direct competitors, weighed about as much as a soufflé.
In its many versions throughout the 60’s and 70’s, it won almost every rally it competed in, including Monte Carlo Rally and was crowned the first World Rally champion in 1973. Couple that with a Le Mans win and it’s easy to understand why the A110 remains the stuff of folklore in France.
A glorious racing history stretching back over 60 years, that only received its coup de grâce by the introduction of the revolutionary mid-engined Lancia Stratos.

Once upon a time, there was Lancia, one of Italy’s greatest car manufacturers. Back then, before the Scooby’s and the Evo’s, lived the hero of our story, the Lancia Delta. And, like a character from a fantasy world, it suddenly went from quiet utilitarian to a Rally God. When it entered the WRC battlefield in its Martini war paint, it was so damn good that it made everything else look prehistoric in comparison, carelessly destroying competitors and leaving nothing but tread marks behind.
It won the WRC manufacturer’s title in its debut year in 87 and then went on to win 6 (six!) years in a row and becoming, to this day, the most successful rally car of all times. And, more than a quarter of a century after its introduction, the Integrale is still loved and respected, perhaps now even more than ever. Please come back, Lancia. We’ve missed you!

The Land Rover Defender is a true icon. The best 4x4xFar, remaining in production for almost 70 years until 2015.

Also be advised that our socks are not expected to endure 70 years nor are recommended to walk on mud.

A celebration of the amazing life of Ayrton Senna.
Ayrton, the racing driver, needs no introduction. King of Pole Position, King of Rain, without a doubt one of the greatest racers that ever lived. So many of today’s F1 fans can establish a direct connection between their first love for the sport and the brazillian. Many still wake up at odd hours to see distant races in the hope of getting a glimpse of what F1 was back then, the end of an era when man was still greater than machine and F1 driving was a pure experience.
Ayrton, the man, is beloved the world over for his honesty and passion for the sport and for life. A silent humanitarian who invested most of his fortune in the fight for social equality in Brazil, imposing only one condition – total secrecy (no, we’re not crying, you’re crying!). In a country that worships football like a religion and footballers like gods, Senna is not only the most beloved sportsman to ever come out of Brazil – he’s the most beloved person, the immortal embodiment of all that’s good about Brazil.
How lucky we are to have met you!

“If God was a machine, it would definitely be an F40” – Enzo Ferrari *
The best Ferrari’s were always built with a particular purpose. The F40 was designed for speed and performance, a car specifically engineered to beat the Porsche 959. This meant that it that it would need to become the first production car to reach the mythical 200 mph mark – not to mention the, at the time unheard of, 0-62 mph time of 4.1s. To achieve its purpose, a 2.9L twin-turbo V8 putting out close to 500 hp was mounted in the back and extensive use of carbon, kevlar and magnesium made it race car light. It also probably didn’t hurt that the expression “true Ferrari” was commonly thrown around by the team that developed the F40.
It was also, from the very beginning, the last Ferrari to have Enzo’s touch. Both him and the team knew at the time that this would be the last Ferrari that “Il Commendatore” would ever personally sign off on.
No wonder then, that it turned out to be a “true Ferrari”.
