CARE
Footwear could have a major influence on the lifetime of your socks. If the insides or insoles of your shoes are lumpy or worn, it can damage your socks more easily.
Wear your wool socks once every 2-3 days allowing wrinkles to smooth out and fibers to recover naturally. No need to wash after every wear.
Put cedar balls, lavender or other moths protecting material to your socks drawer to prevent them from early deterioration.
Take good care of your feet. It can prevent snags and tears on your socks.
SIZING
Available in sizes from 35 to 47
*There are a few elastane strings on top to help socks stay in place. If you have any allergies or concerns about any allergic reaction to any material or fiber, please let us know upfront before placing an order.
