Wearing mohair on your feet is like natural therapy. The capillary capability of the fibre means it is antibacterial and naturally moisture wicking which means no smelly feet and no blisters. (Great for diabetics as it enables good temperature regulation and blood circulation)
As a natural fibre, Mohair is 100% biodegradable. We source our mohair from a sustainable South African supplier and is manufactured in a factory that maintains ethical labour practices.
Mohair is flame retardant which makes it ideal for workers in high-risk environments such as factories, farms or mines.
When combined with wool, cotton and bamboo we can create multifunctional socks and other garments to suit specific lifestyle requirements such as work, fashion and pretty much any sport. We have a sock for everyone!
The production of mohair is labour-intensive which provides much-needed jobs, especially in rural areas to many South Africans
Mohair is excellent at regulating body temperature which allows your skin to breath, keeping your body and feet feeling both light and snug. The perfect fibre for socks and blankets.

We're proud to be associated with 3rd Generation Mohair Farmers who love their animals and harvest the Mohair in the most sustainable and ethical manner.
Supporting hundreds of farm and factory workers, our supply chain, from farm to factory,
is free of any form of child labour.
Dry Cleaning is preferred. Do not under any circumstances run the blanket through a washing machine. You can hand wash in cold or tepid water using a mild hand-washing liquid. Gently squeeze out – never pull or wring. Lay flat to dry. They may be tumble-dried inside a pillowcase on a gentle program
All our socks can be washed in a washing machine on your normal warm cycle. However, we don't recommend tumble drying.
Perfect for winter snuggling but please avoid walking in the socks directly on hard surfaces.
Surprisingly, YES you can! We've tested for up to 5 days without washing and have experienced no adverse effects on our feet. This makes our socks perfect for multi-day hikes/treks. However, we leave that choice up to you.
For now yes, but we're working on expanding our range in the future.
We work with one specific farm and factory, owned by the same family for multiple generations. We're 100% confident that our mohair is ethically sourced and that our factory runs ethical people and environmentally sustainable practices.
We initially had this thought but were blown away at how comfortable and natural the socks and blankets feel and are not one bit itchy or scratchy at all.
Hi Jay. I’ve run with the socks twice this week. Feedback from those runs: very soft feel and comfortable. Cushioned sole. They breathe very well. Warm. I don’t mind the longer top. They have less support than most trail socks but I like that because they’re less constricted.

I'm really impressed with the comfort and design of the diabetic sock. The foot is well cushioned and my feet feel good at the end of the day - not clammy at all. The ankle section is comfortable and does not restrict my leg. I do prefer a slightly shorter leg section though - anyway you can make that part shorter?
