Thick, very warm adult socks in pure organic virgin wool, with anti-slip pads.

Designed for:

• staying warm at home
• replacing slippers
• practicing yoga or gentle exercises
• keeping feet warm while sleeping
• can be worn as slippers over other wool socks for extra warmth in very cold weather

Untreated virgin wool naturally regulates temperature:
it warms without suffocating and absorbs moisture without feeling wet.

To be worn all year round.

Organic cotton reinforcements provide better resistance in wear areas, without the use of synthetics.

The pads ensure good grip on smooth surfaces (parquet, tiles).

Why pure wool is ideal for feet

Wool can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet.
In contact with sweat, it creates a slightly acidic environment that naturally inhibits the development of bacteria and fungi.

This environment also helps limit friction that causes blisters.

• Fewer odors
• Fewer washes.
• Respected physiological comfort.

Why have 100% wool socks become almost impossible to find?

Socks made of untreated pure wool are extremely rare today.
They can still be found at a few committed small manufacturers - but almost no longer in the classic textile industry.

Why?

Because wool is a living, natural... and fragile fiber.
And feet are the most stressed part of the body.

Manufacturers then have two options:

○ Reinforce with synthetic.
This almost always involves an anti-felting treatment (Superwash or equivalent) to make the wool more resistant and machine washable.
Consequence: the fiber is modified, stiffened, its scales altered - and it loses a large part of its natural properties that are so beneficial for socks (thermoregulation, moisture management, bacterial balance).

○ Defend real wool.
Accept that it requires hand washing.
Accept that it may felt in the machine.
Accept that it is not indestructible.

But this also means:

• real breathability
• authentic thermoregulation
• naturally antibacterial environment
• less frequent washing
• unparalleled dry comfort
• one of the rare alternatives suitable for sensitive skin or skin reactive to synthetic fibers (irritations, thermal discomfort, burning feet sensation, dermatological problems related to humidity).

Yes, pure wool socks can wear out.
Like all socks, for that matter. Even synthetics.
The difference? Synthetics are cheap, replaceable, disposable without us even realizing it - and washed very often.

Wool, however, makes you want to mend, repair, and keep it.

It's a conscious choice:
to prefer healthy, thermoregulated comfort, compatible with foot physiology -
rather than artificial durability achieved by adding plastic.

Few brands still accept complaints related to "fragility."
Yet, this is often the sign of the most precious quality.

Supporting these manufacturers means supporting intact wool.
And a different vision of textiles.

Size Guide

Measurements are for informational purposes only.

As wool is a knitted fabric, naturally stretchy and sensitive to humidity, a variation of about 0.5 to 1 cm may exist.
Slight shrinkage may also occur after washing if care is not perfectly adapted.

The sizes indicated correspond to German shoe sizes and are offered in double sizes (e.g., 36-37, 38-39).

Between two sizes?

If you are between two shoe sizes or hesitate between two double sizes, choose the smaller one. This model runs large. Because it is also designed to serve as slippers if you need to complement it with another model underneath.

For people with a small 36, you can also opt for the children's model in 35-36.

Example: my shoe size is a solid 41, I wear 40-41 for this model, I don't take 38-39 or 42-43. But I can also fit into my child's 38-39 for this model, exceptionally, because it is looser and has a stretchy knit.

Caution:
by taking the next size up, you are actually anticipating two full sizes.

A well-fitted sock that fully plays its thermal role is better than an oversized model that is difficult to use.

Why does an oversized sock lose effectiveness?

A wool sock must be properly fitted to fully perform its role.

If it is too large:

• it creates creases => increased friction
• it moves around in the shoe => loss of stability
• it does not properly maintain the insulating air layer around the foot

However, the thermal insulation of wool relies on the micro-cavities of air trapped in the knit.
If the sock is loose, this natural regulation works less effectively.

A good fit allows for:

• better thermoregulation
• optimal comfort
• more even wear

Wool is stretchy: it molds to the foot without compressing it.
Therefore, it is not necessary to "think big."
