Sock Size Guide
Find Your Perfect Fit
Choosing the right size for your merino or goat wool socks is simple. Our cozy socks are designed to be loose-fitting so they feel soft, relaxed, and easy to wear from the moment you slip them on.
- Use your regular shoe size as a starting point.
- If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing down for the best fit.
How Our Socks Are Designed to Fit
Our socks are made to feel comfortable, relaxed, and easy to wear.
- Designed as cozy house socks with a naturally loose fit
- Meant to feel soft and comfortable, not tight or restrictive
- Ideal for relaxing at home, lounging, or wearing as slipper socks
- Many styles are non-binding wool socks with a gentle top and no tight elastic
- Provide pressure-free comfort, especially for sensitive, swollen, or tired feet
If you’re looking for socks without elastic or a softer fit, our non-binding, relaxed-fit designs are made with comfort in mind.
Sock Length Guide
Choosing the right length helps you find the best style for your needs:
- Low-cut wool socks sit at the ankle, ideal as house socks or for sleeping. We have several non-binding designs in this length, but most are made with a gentle elastic top. Offered in lightweight, medium-weight, and heavyweight options.
- Crew wool socks are mid-calf length for added warmth and coverage. Our crew socks are our most versatile option, available in both regular and non-binding styles, as well as lightweight, medium-weight, and heavyweight options.
- Knee-high wool socks offer extended coverage, great for layering, wearing with loose-fitting boots, or adding style to your favorite cold-weather outfit. This length is part of our lightweight collection and made in our popular non-binding style, which is designed to fit a wide range of leg sizes.
- Over-the-knee socks are part of our lightweight collection, yet provide maximum coverage and cozy warmth. Ideal for layering with loose-fitting boots and leggings, this length is also made in our non-binding style.
From low-cut wool socks to knee-high wool socks, each style offers a different level of comfort and warmth.
Choosing the Right Sock Weight
Our socks come in different weights, so you can choose your ideal level of warmth:
- Lightweight styles have a thinner knit and a more flexible feel. These goat hair socks are often chosen for layering or wearing with slippers or relaxed footwear, and include many taller styles.
- Medium-weight socks offer a balanced level of warmth and cushioning, making them a versatile option for everyday comfort. Many customers reach for these as slipper socks or house socks, though they can also be worn with loose-fitting slippers or boots, depending on preference.
- Heavyweight (double-layer) styles are extra plush and insulating, creating the warmest option in the collection. These fuzzy wool socks are best suited for indoor wear, often chosen as extra-thick wool socks or warm winter socks for relaxing at home during colder months.
If you’re unsure where to start, medium-weight is often the easiest and most versatile choice.
Non-Binding Fit Around the Calf
Our non-binding socks are designed for comfort across a wide range of fits:
- Provide gentle, pressure-free comfort for calves up to 20 inches in diameter
- Popular as wide calf wool socks, yet accommodating for standard sizes as well
- Designed with a relaxed fit for flexibility and ease
- Ideal for those looking for:
- socks for swollen feet
- roomy socks for cold feet
- comfortable socks for sensitive legs
Our knee-high socks are especially popular in this category for their accommodating fit, but non-binding options extend to low-cut and crew options as well.
Merino Wool vs Goat Wool Fit
We offer both merino wool socks and goat wool socks, each with a slightly different feel:
-
Merino wool socks
- Smooth, rich texture
- Lighter, more flexible feel
- Great for everyday comfort
-
Goat wool socks
- Fuzzy, soft texture
- Warmer and more plush
- Ideal for cozy wool socks and colder conditions
Both options provide soft cushioning, breathable warmth, and natural comfort — it simply comes down to preference.
Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend sizing down. Our socks are designed as loose-fitting cozy socks, so a slightly smaller size will still feel comfortable while helping them stay in place.
Are they itchy?
Both merino and goat wool have a soft, airy texture that many people find comfortable, especially for cozy or relaxed wear.
Are these socks tight at the top?
No. Our regular styles are made with a gentle elastic top, while our non-binding wool socks offer a looser, relaxed top with no elastic and are designed for a softer, more comfortable fit.
Are these good socks for cold feet?
Yes. Our warm wool socks, especially goat wool socks, provide insulating warmth while remaining breathable.
Are these good for wide calves?
Yes. Our non-binding styles are designed to be accommodating as wide calf socks with a flexible fit that doesn’t feel restrictive.
Do the non-binding socks stay up?
Yes. The well-structured knit helps these socks stay comfortably in place throughout the day without slipping, while still feeling soft against the leg. Many of the knee-high designs come with a piece of yarn to tie at the top to ensure a secure fit.

Care Guide
Our wool socks are naturally easy to care for and don’t need frequent washing. They can be worn multiple times between washes — simply let them air out between wears. To keep your socks feeling soft and comfortable:
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water
- Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach
- Lay flat to dry, or tumble dry on low
With simple care, your merino wool socks and goat wool socks will stay soft, warm, and easy to wear over time.
