Isle Royale socks

Post by fonixmunkee »

No, this thread isn't about "what socks should I wear to IR," it's actually to share a link to some socks inspired by Isle Royale.

These socks are made by Smartwool, and are designed using the Charley Harper poster for Isle Royale National Park:

And, for reference, here's the Charley Harper picture the socks are patterned off of:

I came across these while doing some Christmas shopping...maybe a good gift for the Isle Royale fan on your list? No, I'm not paid by SmartWool to hock the product.

I just purchased the poster, awaiting a frame for displaying it.
I have yet to hit the buy button for the socks, I do love smartwool.
