Wool Socks - Thick Warm Winter Socks - Ribbed Mid-Calf for Boots

The Terrabound Wool Socks are thick, wool-rich winter socks with a ribbed mid-calf leg, made for cold walks, cold floors and the boots you already own. They are knitted thick enough to feel the difference on a frosty morning, but not so thick that your walking boots stop fitting.

The yarn is high in wool and brushed for a soft finish, so it feels closer to a good sweater than to the coarse, scratchy wool of a budget multipack. A 200 needle knit gives the sock its depth, a vertical rib runs through the leg and over the foot, and the ribbed cuff holds the sock at mid-calf without a tight band.

Wool is what keeps feet warm, not thickness on its own. The fibre traps air in its own crimp and keeps insulating when it gets a little damp, which is the point where a cotton sock turns cold against your toes. One pair of these does the job of two cotton socks doubled up, which means warm feet all winter, in the boots you already own.

Key Features:

• Wool-rich yarn keeps insulating when damp, so your toes stay warm long after a cotton sock has gone cold.
• A thick 200 needle knit gives warmth you can feel while staying slim enough for your usual walking boots and shoes.
• Brushed, soft-finish yarn feels comfortable against bare skin, without the itch of coarse budget wool.
• Mid-calf height sits above the collar of a walking boot, so the boot rubs the sock rather than your ankle.
• A ribbed cuff holds the sock up under your pants without leaving a tight band around your leg.
• Wool naturally resists odour better than cotton, so one pair copes with a full day out and the drive home.
• Seven solid colours, from brown and charcoal to cream and red, make it easy to keep a drawer of winter pairs that all match.

Terrabound builds practical outdoor kit for people who are out every week, whatever the forecast. The Wool Socks come in brown, black, charcoal, light grey, oatmeal, cream and red.

Pair them with our Women's Walking Boots or Men's Trail Shoes for a winter setup that starts at your feet.
