PINK PIG Socks

$13.00 VAT included (where applicable).free shipping available
The Pink Pig *
The “Pig” was certainly not designed to be pretty even if it was a brilliant exercise in aerodynamics.
Originally set to make its debut in Martini livery, legend has it that after Count Rossi took a look at the unusually shaped racing car he refused to let it race in the famous red and blue stripes.
Porsche then decided to go with the pink butcher-style livery to make sure it didn’t go unnoticed at the race track.
Although it was a one-off experimental race car, the Porsche 917/20 “Pink Pig” (or Truffle Hunter) became a legend for its surprising participation at the 1971 Le Mans.
* also suitable for vegans
80% Combed Cotton, 17% Polyamide, 3% Elastane.
We use seamless knitting to create a sock with no stitches.
Wash inside out (40ºC/100ºF max). Do not tumble dry, iron, bleach or dry clean.

Love these socks! I have turned on 3 other friends and they love them as well. I buy them for
myself and as gifts!
N. Berrill –
I’ve purchased 3 pairs of socks from Heel Tread and they are both a great design and great quality. After many months of washing they are still in really good condition. Sizing was just right for my size 10 feet. FW16s were much admired at the British Grand Prix. Thanks

Great designs, good quality socks, fast delivery. No complaints and will be adding to the 11 pairs I already own in the future.
