Peacock Socks – Lilac & Blue | Bold, Playful & Inspired by African Textiles
Step into colour and culture with our Peacock Socks – Lilac & Blue Edition. This vibrant pair is an updated take on one of our most-loved designs, now featuring a striking lilac and royal blue colour palette. Inspired by traditional African wax print fabrics, especially the iconic Peacock (or "Eyes") print, these socks are a statement of bold identity and effortless style.
🎨 Inspired by African Wax Print Tradition
The "Peacock" design — also known as the "Eyes" motif — is a beloved classic in West African Ankara and Dutch Wax fabrics, celebrated for its flowing circular forms that mimic the spread of peacock feathers or radiant eyes. Traditionally worn for celebrations, special events, and everyday fashion across Ghana, Nigeria, and other parts of Africa, this print represents pride, grace, and inner strength.
Our updated version transforms this heritage design into a playful and wearable sock pattern, using contemporary shades of lilac purple and deep blue to create contrast, movement, and visual intrigue.
🌈 Colour That Pops

Let customers speak for us
from 469 reviewsI might have a foot fetish considering I've bought about 15 pairs of socks. The designs are an Afrocemtric delight.
I had to buy the His and Hers set so my wife wouldn't "borrow" my socks.
I bought the black and white box as well. Packaging and presentation is great
I'll definitely be stepping out in fashion when the weather gets warmer!
