Mina Perhonen birdie cotton socks

A whimsical and artistic addition to any wardrobe, these birdie cotton socks are a quintessential example of the playful yet sophisticated design language of Mina Perhonen. Crafted from high-quality combed cotton, these socks feature the brand's iconic bird and forest motifs, intricately rendered in a contrasting jacquard knit that offers both texture and visual charm.

The design is centered on a comfortable, mid-calf length with a soft-stretch ribbed cuff that stays in place without restricting circulation. With their unique color-blocking and hand-drawn aesthetic, these socks serve as a small but impactful "wearable art" piece that brightens a minimalist look.

• Origin: Designed in Japan by Mina Perhonen.

• Material: Premium Cotton blend with a touch of polyester and polyurethane for stretch and durability.

• Motif: Iconic "Birdie" jacquard knit featuring stylized birds and nature-inspired patterns.

• Fit: Standard mid-calf crew length with a reinforced heel and toe for longevity.

These socks are designed to be glimpsed, not hidden. Pair them with cropped trousers or the Japan sheer organza layered midi skirt to let the birdie motif peek out from above your footwear. They add a touch of personality when styled with lambskin pointed-toe pumps or minimalist loafers. For a cozy, tonal look, coordinate the sock colors with a linen-acrylic knit cardigan or a simple cotton tee.

• Turn Inside Out: Always wash socks inside out to protect the decorative "birdie" threads from friction and snagging.

• Hand Wash Preferred: For the longest lifespan, hand wash in cool water using a mild, neutral detergent.

• Machine Wash: If using a machine, place the socks in a fine mesh laundry bag. Use a delicate cycle with cold water (30°C or below).

• Avoid Bleach: Never use chlorine bleach or harsh optical brighteners, as these can damage the natural cotton fibers and fade the intricate colors.
