Luxury online retailer MR PORTER has featured a pair of our Fair Isle socks in its new Autumn/Winter 2012 campaign.

The global print and online campaign, titled “Style Wherever You Are”, aims to emphasise the global reach of the retailer and features a series of images set in weird and wonderful locations all over the world. Our socks appear in an image called “Greenery”, taken in remote Scandinavia.

Corgi Fair Isle wool-blend socks, available at MR PORTER

 

The socks pictured are our Fair Isle thick wool-blends, in a design available exclusively through MR PORTER. As the retailer so eloquently puts it…

“As the evenings draw in, reach for these Corgi socks when you’re spending time around the house. Knitted in Wales, UK, from a soft, thick blend of cotton and wool, the Fair Isle-patterned pair will be a snug choice”.

MR PORTER is Corgi’s top customer in the UK – they stock a wide range of both our and their own exclusive designs. Visit the MR PORTER website to take a look at the rest of their Corgi range.

It’s time to reveal the next entry in our coveted Corgi Countdown.

This week, in 4th place, we have the men’s Fair Isle patterned sock in red. Made from a combination of the finest wool and exquisite long staple Egyptian cotton, comfort and warmth is guaranteed when you slip these socks on.

 

Yes, we know that Fair Isle is typically associated with chilly trips to the ski-slopes and woodsy winter towns, but with the miserable weather we’re experiencing this so-called “summer”, it’s well worth having a pair of of these close at hand!

To be in with a chance of winning a pair – plus a pair of each of the other styles in our top five – enter our exclusive competition.  All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is ‘like’ our Facebook page. The competition closes at midnight on July 30th 2012, when one winner will be selected at random to receive the five pairs.

 

Terms and Conditions: Deadline for entry is midnight on 30th July 2012. The winner will be chosen at random. This promotion is not open to Corgi employees or their relatives.
