Materials

60% Merino, 36% Polyamide, 1% Elastane
Made in Portugal

Care

Machine wash merino wool socks at up to 40°C using a gentle cycle and mild detergent.
Do not tumble dry, as heat can cause shrinking and damage the wool. Instead, reshape while damp and air dry flat away from direct heat sources such as radiators.
Do not bleach, as this can weaken the fibres and cause discolouration.
Ironing is usually not necessary, but if needed, use a low heat setting.
Avoid high temperatures and sudden heat changes to help prevent shrinking and keep your merino wool socks soft and long-lasting.

Sourcing

Pairs’ Merino wool socks are responsibly sourced and carefully made in Portugal. The Merino wool fibres are selected with a focus on quality and sustainability, supporting farms and mills that prioritise craftsmanship and environmental care. Once sourced, the wool is spun and knitted in a trusted, family‑run Portuguese mill, ensuring consistent quality and comfort.

FAQs

What are the benefits of wearing merino wool socks?

Our merino socks are breathable and moisture-wicking and because merino wool resists odour, you can wear them more than once between washes - a small win for both convenience and sustainability.

Can merino wool be worn everyday?

Yes. These are the perfect, lightweight everyday sock.

Are merino wool socks good for walking in?

Our bed socks make great walking socks. They’re a chunky crew sock that are incredibly durable and help keep feet dry and warm - ideal when hiking.

Are merino wool socks itchy?

No. High-quality merino wool socks are soft, breathable, and comfortable against the skin. Unlike traditional coarse wool, fine fibres reduce irritation and are suitable for everyday wear.

Are merino wool socks good for warm weather?

Yes. Merino wool socks are ideal for warm weather because merino wool is breathable and temperature-regulating. Lightweight merino wool socks wick moisture away from the skin, helping keep feet cool, dry and comfortable in summer.

Which everyday fibre do I need, bamboo or merino?

Choose bamboo for softness, breathability and everyday comfort; it’s excellent in warm weather, for playing sports in or all-day wear. Merino wool is ideal if you want temperature regulation and extra insulation. Both fibres wick moisture well.

Are your merino wool socks sustainable?

Yes, sustainability is important to us. We source our merino wool responsibly, supporting farms and mills that share our respect for craftsmanship and environmental care. Every fibre is OEKO-TEX certified, ensuring consumer safety and transparency.
