The ribbed top band is light grey with a navy stripe, and the client's wordmark is knitted into the leg in grey. ## Our Solution The stirrups are knitted in one piece directly from yarn. The wordmark and the stripe are knitted in (jacquard), the leg has ribbed zones at the top and above the ankle, and the stirrup opening is finished with a stitched edge so it keeps its shape. As usual for stirrups, they are worn over a separate sock. ## Detailed Result The finished stirrups give a clean navy look, with the wordmark on the side of the leg and the grey band at the top. ## Project Specifications **Client / Brand** A U.S. soccer club **Product Type** Football Stirrup Socks **Quantity** 200 pcs **Decoration** Jacquard Knit **Destination** United States **Lead Time** 14 days (standard) **Colours** Navy, light grey **Yarn** Polyester/nylon performance yarn with elastic covering yarn (nylon/spandex) **Style** Footless, with a stirrup under the arch **Construction** Knitted in one piece directly from yarn (no fabric is cut or sewn) **Logo** Wordmark knitted in (jacquard) on the leg **Top band** Ribbed, light grey with a navy stripe **Stirrup** Stitched edge Standard production lead time is approximately 14 days.
