Description
UK Alpaca’s Lounge Socks are great for lazing around on the sofa, padding about the house and keeping your feet warm in bed. Natural alpaca fibre is breathable, anti-bacterial with good wicking properties that ensure comfy, warm, dry and odour free feet.
The socks are made from 90% British alpaca and 10% nylon and are made from our British alpaca yarn. With so little nylon in the mix they will not wear well if used with continual walking or in a shoe. Designed as a bed sock or slipper sock. For shoe use we suggest for selecting from the Town & Country range.
This new and improved range feature a linked toe design and loose ankle top for much increased comfort.
All the alpaca comes from the fleeces of alpacas farmed in the UK.
For best results hand wash or use a low temperature delicate machine wash, spin at no more then 600rpm and air dry.
