"Having sensitive skin and being prone to chilblains, I was looking for a robust knitted sock made from all natural fibres with some wool and machine washable at a sensible temperature - that is, can go in with the normal wash. This sock fits the bill perfectly. You don't know you are wearing them because your feet feel neither hot or cold, but comfortably warm - perfect. They are super comfy and unlike unnatural fibres, they breath. They are also softly but sufficiently ribbed and a perfect fit around my ankle/lower calf - so no itchy ankles."

"These are, without doubt, my favourite socks. They are soft, comfortably shaped and consistently warm without being sweaty or tight. Being made of the materials they are, they do wear out - but that just means I've sharpened my visible darning skills."

"These socks are lovely, I bought them for my partner and he's very pleased with them, especially the thick sole and toe. On advice I bought a size up and while they looked big they fit perfectly.

They're really good quality and very well made, they're nice and thick but with the mix of wool, cotton and linen they're not too hot."
