Fit

Fit & Size Guide

The socks are elasticated and adapt comfortably to the foot without constricting it. The ribbed structure provides support and ensures that the socks stay in place even when moving.

The material blend provides stability and helps the socks retain their shape even with frequent wear. The cuff height is adjusted by size – slightly shorter for children and cut higher for adults.

Tip: Choose your usual size – the socks fit true to size and offer plenty of flexibility thanks to their elasticity.

Materials & Care

Material & Care

The socks are made of 90% virgin wool, with recycled polyamide and elastane for shape retention and durability. The wool is RWS-certified and comes from responsible animal husbandry.

Wool has a natural self-cleaning property. It absorbs moisture without feeling wet and neutralizes odors – often, simply airing out the socks is enough.

Care tips:
  • Air out in the fresh air
  • Spot clean as needed
  • Gentle hand wash or wool cycle
  • Do not tumble dry
  • Do not iron, do not bleach
  • Use mild wool detergent

With the right care, the socks will retain their shape and remain comfortable to wear for a long time – made for many days of use.
