Choose the right socks
Learn how to choose the right socks based on your activity, weather and needs. With the right wool socks, you keep your feet warm, dry and comfortable, whether you’re on the move or at rest.
Why are good socks important?
Good socks are essential for keeping your feet warm, dry and comfortable, both in everyday life and outdoors. Feet produce a lot of moisture, and if it isn’t transported away, they quickly get cold. The right wool socks help wick away moisture, retain warmth and reduce the risk of chafing.
This makes a big difference to your comfort, whether you’re at work or out on an adventure.
Why choose wool socks?
Wool keeps your feet dry and warm. It wicks away moisture, insulates effectively, and retains warmth even when damp, unlike cotton and synthetic materials which quickly feel cold and wet.

Layering
Just like dressing in layers to keep your body warm, you can do the same with socks. Here are some tips on socks that work well together.
By layering socks, you reduce the risk of chafing and blisters, as friction occurs between the socks instead of against your skin.

For the first layer, a thinner wool sock that fits snugly around the foot is ideal. We recommend Liner Classic or Skilled Liner Classic, depending on your activity level.
Socks Liner Classic → Perfect for everyday wear and office use all year round, but also suitable for light activity or as a first layer.
Skilled Liner → Best for high-intensity activities. Thin, breathable, and designed with a close fit to help keep feet dry and reduce friction. Available in three heights: low-cut, crew-length, and knee-high.
