The Cub

SEPTEMBER 2015 Edition - Designed by Maku to benefit Free the Bears

PARTNERS

Maku

Artist

The first piece we saw of Maku’s was a magnificent beast rendered in geometric glory. We instantly knew we had to collab to get a pair of her beasts for your feet.

Justina ‘Maku’ Bisset is a Melbourne based illustrative artist. Her work is filled with precise lines and dripping paint highlights that render her human and animal subjects in sharp colour. As a student Maku was so taken with the cause of protecting abused bears that she worked part-time as a cleaner to donate her wages to Free the Bears.

Maku’s passion was the inspiration for September’s Edition, the Cub.

More of Maku’s Art can be seen at makusart.com.

Free the Bears

Charity

Since 1995 Perth based charity Free the Bears Fund has provided support to a wide range of projects across the globe to protect, preserve, and enrich the lives of bears.

“One of our biggest challenges is rehabilitating rescued bears and providing care for their entire lives, which can be up to 30 years.”

Free the Bears received 11 bear cubs last year alone – all of whom need rehabilitation, food, living space and medical provisions.

Subscriptions and sales of the Cub in September helped provide 28 Cub Care packs for rescued bear cubs.

More info on Cub Care Packs and Free the Bears can be found at freethebears.org/

SHOW OFF

We hope you’re prepared for all the flirting and conversations with interesting people your killer new socks will instigate.

You’ll be subscribing knowing that each time you receive your pair of Soxy Beast socks, we’re donating a pair of unbranded socks to one of our charity partners thanks to our Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program.

Every pair of Soxy Beast socks also comes with info on the artist that designed them and the charity they support, so you’ll have a fun little story to share when someone compliments your bold, new socks.

SOCKS

Every one of our patterns has been specially designed by our collaborating artists for our socks. Meaning you won’t see these patterns anywhere else! They are literally the most unique socks available anywhere with individual artist’s techniques delivering bold, exciting patterns that showcase their incredible talent!

Our decades of experience have helped us craft the perfect blend of high quality combed cotton and lycra to ensure a perfect, comfortable fit that wears exceptionally well! The trick is in the yarn thread count and the state of the art knitting machines that we use.
