These alpaca socks are really cosy while being thin enough to wear them with a normal trainer or dress shoe and make the perfect gift for your loved ones - or for you to treat yourself! They come in a variety of colours ready for all situations - and take a look at our other listings for plain colours and contrasting-heel options!

Alpaca wool has superior insulating properties due to the structure of their fibres; this means that your feet will be kept nice and warm in the winter but you won't overheat in the summer!

With a much lower micron than sheep's wool, these socks are also much softer than ordinary wool products and won't irritate your skin. Due to the lack of lanolin in their fleeces, alpacas and their wool are hypoallergenic and will leave you feeling good all around! 

Just like other wool products, alpaca has wicking properties; these socks transport any moisture from your foot to the outside of the sock, keeping your feet dry and comfortable even after a whole day in shoes.

They are machine washable but due to the high wool content, only on a gentle and cool wool cycle and then hang to drip dry. That said, because they don't absorb moisture (and hence odours) from your feet, they need to be washed a lot less than normal cotton socks, making them environmentally friendly; simply airing them out does the job in most cases. Sounds weird? It's true though, just try them out - you will love them!

Made with 55% alpaca wool and 45% nylon (for superb elasticity and a snug fit!).
