Wool Jacquard Socks - Wine

These jacquard socks, though made of wool, are designed to be virtually shrink-proof. This shrink-proofing method has been developed by specialist Japanese sock company Nishiguchi Kutsushita, established in 1950. Produced from specially-selected wool which in itself is less inclined to shrink, the wool is repeatedly pre-washed in a method that future-proofs the socks from shrinking in the washing machine. The soft, lustrous material is reminiscent of luxurious, high pile carpets which envelope the feet in their warmth. These socks are available in three different colours: red, oatmeal, and grey.

Machine wash with mild detergents only.
