The Best Walking Socks Use Merino Wool
MERINO WOOL is the most suitable fibre for walking socks because:
- WICKING - it wicks moisture from your foot.
- ABSORBTION - uniquely it also absorbs moisture, unlike synthetics, meaning that your feet stay dry.
- QUICK DRYING - it dries quickly unlike other absorbent natural fibres such as cotton.
OUR MERINO WOOL is of the highest quality because:
- FINE - our yarn is spun from fine micron (22.5 micron) fibre which means that is it lovely and soft, not itchy.
- SHRINK-RESISTANT - our yarn is hercosett treated which is the most expensive shrink-resist treatment. Other cheaply-made wool walking socks use a less effective shrink-resist treatment or instead blend with a synthetic. The best walking socks can be bunged in the washing machine and the tumble dryer and will still fit time afer time.
- LONG-LASTING - our merino wool yarn is blended with a small amount of super-hardwearing nylon to ensure low pilling and longer lasting wear thick walking socks.
