Trunk Transparency
The Switzerlands 1.0 were our first generation of socks. These socks were designed to be no-show ankle socks. For many, these fit the designed purpose. For some, the no-show ankle length was too short and slipped in their shoes. This sock will ride low. A worthy sock deserves a home regardless!
