Only Hope
“Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you’re my only hope.”
- Princess Leia, A New Hope
The original beginning of the Star Wars saga includes a plea from one of the most recognizable characters of all time. Throughout the series, Leia embodies strength, courage, and, above all, hope. These toe-up socks use strong lines of twisted ribbing and lace to honor her legacy. At first glance they may seem delicate, but this pair of socks is as indestructible and everlasting as the character herself.
