Navy Blue Ankle Length Bamboo Sock

Natural fibres such as mohair, alpaca, merino, cashmere, bamboo and wool are often more expensive to produce than synthetic materials. However, natural fibre socks tend to last longer and provide better comfort and breathability, making them worth the investment.

Bamboo viscose, also known as bamboo rayon, is made by a process called the viscose process, which involves dissolving bamboo pulp into a viscous liquid and then extruding it through fine holes to create fibres.

1. Harvesting and cleaning bamboo: The bamboo plants are harvested and the leaves and bark are stripped away to leave only the bamboo stalks.
2. Crushing and boiling: The bamboo stalks are then crushed and mixed to create a pulpy substance.
3. Dissolving: The pulpy substance is then heated to create a viscous liquid.
4. Extruding: The viscous liquid is forced through small holes to create fibres that can be spun into yarn.
5. Washing and drying: The fibres are then washed and dried to remove any remaining chemicals and to give them their final texture.

We use natural fibres as the hero yarn in our socks. The properties of which are very clever in regulating the temperature of our feet.

While natural fibres may require more delicate care than synthetics, they are often more durable in the long run. Proper care and maintenance can help extend the life of your PAIRS socks.

Depending on which fibre you have chosen, natural fibre socks may require special care such as hand washing. However, many of our socks can be machine washed and hung to dry.

Our socks are incridbly gentle but if you have an allergy to a specific natural fibre, such as wool, look for socks made from alternative fibre like our bamboo range.
