FAQs
Are these socks itchy?
No, the high-quality Merino wool blend is selected for its softness and is designed to feel comfortable and smooth against the skin.
Can I wear these with sneakers?
Yes, their sophisticated look makes them versatile enough to pair with both casual sneakers and formal footwear.
How should I store them?
Store them in a cool, dry place. If storing for the summer, place them in a drawer with cedar blocks to prevent moth damage.
Do they provide arch support?
These are primarily designed for warmth and comfort rather than athletic support.
What does 200 denier mean?
Denier refers to the thickness of the fibers; 200 denier is a thicker, opaque knit that provides high warmth and coverage.
Troubleshooting
Socks losing elasticity in the cuff
Avoid using fabric softeners during wash, as they can coat the fibers and weaken the elasticity over time.
Pilling or small lint balls on the surface
This is normal for natural wool; use a fabric shaver gently to remove surface pilling after washing.
Shrinkage after washing
Ensure you are using cold water settings only; high temperatures will cause the natural fibers to contract and felt.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are made from fine Merino wool, proper maintenance is essential to ensure longevity. We recommend washing the socks by hand or using a delicate machine cycle inside a mesh laundry bag. Always use a detergent specifically formulated for wool to prevent fibers from drying out or losing their elasticity. Avoid tumble drying; instead, gently squeeze out excess water and lay the socks flat to dry on a towel away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the material to shrink.
