Technical details and instructions

Material and care

62% merino wool, 36% polyamide, and 2% elastane. The polyamide is added to the mix for wear resistance, and the elastane guarantees a snug fit.

These are made from mulesing-free merino wool!

Made in Finland

These are made in Finland by Sukkamestarit Oy (SOCK MASTERS! Can't go wrong with a name like that!), a very experienced manufacturer and the official sock supplier of the Finnish army.

Want to know where the merino wool comes from?

Our sock provider Sukkamestarit has joined the NATIVA™system, the purpose of which is to be able to trace the merino wool back to individual sheep farms. Because of this, you will also be able to find out where the wool for all our merino wool socks comes from.

The packages have a QR code that you can use to trace the source of the merino wool.

Wash and care

Wash at 40° C (104° F), preferably with the wool cycle. Air dry. You can even mess around with some wool conditioner if you like.

Airing these bad boys regularly will keep them odor-free longer without washing.

The joys of merino wool

Wool is an excellent material. It will keep you warm even when wet and does not soak in nasty smells or dirt easily, making it pretty hygienic. Now, Merino wool has two additional benefits compared to normal wool; it's finer, which means it's also warmer per gram and feels very comfortable against the skin, not rough and itchy at all.
