Wool knee socks for warm feet and lower legs
Wool knee socks provide an extra layer of warmth not just for your feet, but for your lower legs as well. This makes them wonderful in boots, under trousers or a skirt, and on cold days when regular socks just aren't enough. In this collection, you will find both solid-colored knee socks and colorful styles with a classic Norwegian pattern.
The knee socks from Hirsch Natur are made in Germany from pure new wool. Wool is breathable, helps regulate moisture, and is much less prone to absorbing odors. This keeps your legs cozy without the socks quickly feeling clammy.
Solid or with a Norwegian pattern
The Norwegian knee socks are real eye-catchers and look beautiful above a boot or under rolled-up trousers. If you are looking for a subtle color for daily use, take a look at the solid wool knee socks. Both styles reach just below the knee.
Sizes and fit of Hirsch Natur
The current wool knee socks are available in sizes 36 through 43. Hirsch Natur generally runs large. Are you between two sizes? Usually, choose the smaller size. Wool can stretch slightly while being worn.
The cuff helps keep the knee sock in place, but every leg is different. Do you have sturdy calves, sensitive legs, or are you prone to marks? Feel free to contact us or come by the store to try them on, and we can help you find which style fits comfortably.
Airing out and careful washing
You need to wash wool knee socks much less often than many other socks. Hang them out to air after wearing and give the wool time to recover. Is washing necessary? Then use the wool cycle, a low temperature, and a low spin speed. We recommend Lanalicious wool detergent with lanolin. Do not use fabric softener and let the socks air dry.
How to manage wear and tear wisely
Pure wool is comfortable and completely natural, but it can wear out. Therefore, wear your knee socks in well-fitting shoes or slippers, not directly on the floor. Regularly check the toes, heels, and ball of the foot. If you see a thin spot, reinforce it before a larger hole develops.
