Description

Our unisex, wool rich, knee high socks are designed for warmth, comfort and everyday wear.

Made from natural wool fibres, they’re warm socks that are temperature regulating, moisture wicking and breathable, helping keep feet and lower legs warm without overheating.

A clever cushioned sole adds extra comfort and support, making them well suited to long days on your feet, walking, or wearing as boot socks.

A purply red with depth. It sits comfortably alongside classic colours staples, bringing just enough character to be noticed.

Materials

66% Wool, 32% Polyamide, 1% Polyester, 1% Elastane
Made in Portugal

Care

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle or wool cycle. Wash with similar colours and turn inside out where possible to help preserve the fibres.

Do not tumble dry, as heat can shrink wool and affect the fit. Instead, reshape while damp and lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not bleach and do not iron. Avoid fabric softeners, which can reduce the natural breathability of lambswool.

These are amazing! Thick comfy soles. Really warm in this freezing weather and they stay up perfectly. I can thoroughly recommend them. And they are made in the UK!!! (That’s a big plus for me)

Beautiful bed socks

I’m absolutely delighted with my wool bed socks - in the past I’ve only worn cashmere but got frustrated by the fact they didn’t stay soft for long despite careful washing. I bought two sets of Pairs in orange and brown. They handwash beautifully, and stay soft and roomy for the perfect night’s sleep - and excellent value. Have ordered two more pairs.

Summer socks…

I've been looking and trying various socks from other companies especially for the summer. These merino calf length seems to fit the bill as they are soft and comfortable. We shall see how hard wearing they are but an easy 9 rating so far and I'm really pleased the elastic doesn't cut my leg off as some others do. Need to buy some more. Thank you Pairs
