Alpaca Socks Provide Exceptional Comfort

Whether you're hiking through rugged terrain or strolling along the beach, alpaca wool socks offer a level of comfort and performance that goes beyond ordinary socks.

Unparalleled Softness for Your Feet

Alpaca fibre is known for its luxurious softness, offering a level of comfort that pampers your feet like no other. This unparalleled softness ensures that every step you take is cushioned and gentle, making alpaca socks a delightful treat for your feet.


In addition to their coziness, alpaca socks are a smart choice for individuals with sensitive skin or allergies. They're naturally hypoallergenic, free from lanolin, and possess anti-bacterial properties that make them gentle and non-irritating. Plus, their odour-resistant quality means you can wear your socks for extended periods between washings.  This means not only is there less for you to pack on your next camping adventure, but your feet will also stay comfortable and fresh throughout your trip.


Pro tip: Don't let your partner near your sock drawer, 'cuz if they don't already have their own alpaca socks, you're going to loose yours. Save yourself the hassle and buy them a pair too.

Alpaca: The Eco-Friendly Choice

Alpaca wool, revered for its luxurious softness and insulating value, is also a champion of sustainability.  Unlike traditional wool, alpaca fibres come from animals with a notably lower carbon footprint.  Alpacas are gentle on the earth; they don't have hooves, rather two soft-padded toes on each foot minimize soil disruptions and they have an efficient grazing habit that preserves the integrity of their environment.

Caring for Your Alpaca Socks

Your alpaca socks not only offer exceptional comfort but are also renowned for their durability, being less likely to pill or become rough compared to traditional wool sock. To ensure that your alpaca wool socks maintain their insulating properties and softness over the years, a few simple care steps can make all the difference.

Washing Instructions

  • Hand-wash your socks in tepid water.
  • Use gentle agitation only to avoid fulling or felting the fibres.
  • Use a mild, bleach-free detergent specially formulated for wool or delicate items. Eucalan Delicate Wash is an exceptional no-rinse wash specially designed for all your knits.
  • Lay your socks flat to air dry, avoiding direct sunlight.
  • Never use a tumble dryer, as heat can shrink or warp the natural fibres.

Storage

  • Hang storing can stretch the fabric, so neatly fold your socks for storage.
  • Store in a cedar chest or use natural moth repellents like lavender sachets or washes like Eucalan which is infused with essential oils

By caring for your alpaca socks properly, you’ll prolong their lifespan and you'll continue to enjoy their unique properties for years to come.
