Truly pure elastic-free 100% certified organic merino wool socks, 100% synthetics-free, 100% biodegradable, naturally stretchy but not confining or circulation-constricting. 2-ply (Alpineville, Hartford) is more stretchy than 3-ply (Mountainville, Glaciers); for more snugness, choose 3-ply. These rare & unique 100% organic merino wool socks are finished by hand with organic merino yarns at the seams, a labor-intensive way to ensure that absolutely no elastic, no elastane, no Spandex, no latex, no Lycra, no nylon and no polyester is used. The premium certified organic merino yarn is sourced from France and Italy – luxuriously soft & fine and a far cry from the rough wool socks of yore. CARE GUIDE: Wash as infrequently as possible / practicable. Merino wool is naturally anti-bacterial and anti-odor. Hand wash in lukewarm water (press water out, do not twist) or wash in a laundry net bag on delicate cycle (LUKEWARM water is best, not super tap cold, not warm, not hot; product may shrink or become felted at hot temperatures). Gentle biodegradable detergent only. No fabric softeners, no optical brighteners, no bleach. DO NOT PUT product in the dryer. Lay flat to dry. Products may retract slightly after washing. Gently stretch out to shape and steam-iron at the correct fabric settings (wool for merino, linen for hemp and linen), if needed (steam will restore fabric to the soft state in which you received them). At the workshop, we pre-wash our fabrics before cutting and sewing them. Then we steam iron each product. We do not use any wrinkle-proofing or anti-shrinkage or no-iron chemicals in any of our products as these forever chemicals (like PFOA and PFAS) are often toxic and harmful. Our unique 2-ply 100% certified organic merino wool socks are completely plastic-free, polyester-free, latex-free, nylon-free, spandex-free and elastic-free. These special organic merino wool socks are made from the finest curated certified organic Italian and French merino that is super fine, soft, cozy, smooth, lightweight and warm. Made in-house at Rawganique Atelier in Europe one organic merino wool sock at a time for true purity. Merino wool is legendary for being naturally anti-bacterial and anti-fungal. Unisex S - XL. Hypoallergenic. Chemical-free. Elastic-free knit. These non-confining organic merino wool socks are latex-free and skin-friendly. For everyday wearing & in bed. These organic merino wool socks aren't designed for sports or extreme use; however, many customers report using them to ski in and the organic merino wool socks were fine — no odor and super cozy. Some (not all) of our plastic-free organic merino wool socks come packaged in biodegradable cellophane.

100% natural organic wool socks are generally not as long-lasting or robust as wool socks blended with polyamide, elastic and other types of synthetic fibers (that's why plastic microfiber and polyester socks are so popular). We recommend our synthetic-free 100% organic wool socks for normal everyday wearing and sleeping; our truly natural organic wool socks are created for people who are chemically sensitive, those who are averse to chemicals & synthetics and those who want to pursue a plastic-free lifestyle. Merino wool socks developing holes is NOT a claimable defect. Please take good care of your special socks and don't be rough with them; wiggle them on, don't just roughly pull them on. (Depending on usage, holes may develop over time. They can simply be mended with needle & thread, or needle felting.)
