Why alpaca

Alpaca vs. Merino Wool vs. Cotton

How alpaca fiber stacks up against the two most common sock materials, rated honestly.

This sock: Light warmth, Soft softness

Comparison of alpaca, merino wool and cotton sock fibers
Feature Warrior Alpaca Merino Wool Cotton
Warmth Best Hollow fibers trap heat, warmer than wool without the bulk Good Warm, but needs more bulk for the same heat Poor Little insulation, and none once it gets wet
Moisture-wicking Best Pulls sweat away and dries fast Good Wicks well, dries more slowly Poor Absorbs sweat and stays wet
Odor resistance Best Naturally antimicrobial, stays fresh in boots Good Resists odor well Poor Traps odor after a day of wear
Itch-free softness Best Smooth fiber scales, no prickle Good Soft, though some feel a prickle Good Soft and itch-free
Sensitive skin Best Lanolin-free and hypoallergenic Fair Contains lanolin, which can irritate Good Gentle on most skin
Durability Best Strong fiber that holds its shape Good Durable, prone to felting if overheated Fair Wears thin and stretches out

Reviews

Socks

"Just what i needed for cold soccer games"

— JOY c. (5/5)

Great socks

"Warm and a great fit"

— THERESA H. (5/5)

Bee Happy Alpaca socks

"When I chose the grip sock category from your site, these socks came up in the grip sock category. I bought them without realising that they weren't actually grip socks. They are nice socks but not what I wanted. Can you please remove them from the grip sock category? thanks Wendy"

— WENDY R. (3/5)

Best Socks Ever

"These are the most durable and comfortable socks I have ever owned"

— Chris S. (5/5)

Can't blame 'em!

"These socks are soft and fit perfectly. I got two pair one for my husband and one for myself. They come up my leg and extend out of my boots. They are thick, but they don't make my boots tight when I wear them. My husband wears them all the time, and his feet smell better, too! They are perfect in every way, except for the loss in the playoffs, but we can hardly blame them! I'm sure they will bring more luck for the hockey games!"

— Kimberly D. (5/5)

Love these socks

"These socks are really cute and warm when wearing shoes. I thought I could wear them around the house to stay warm, but they are thin. So, you do need slippers. But they are great quality and super cute!"

— KRISTA R. (5/5)

Great socks!

"Neat design, but more importantly warm and comfortable!"

— BRUCE M. (5/5)

Fun and WARM!

"Wearing these in the dead of below zero winter and my feet are staying nice and warm!"

— EDWARD W. (5/5)

Good buy.

"Love the pattern. Soft and distinctively warmer than socks of other materials. Top band is a bit tight and constrictive- and I have slender legs. I fold the top down a few inches for comfort."

— Gayla J. (5/5)

Pittsburgh colors

"Purchased these as Christmas gifts. Although I obviously haven't used them yet, they look great and are heavy. Shipping was also incredibly fast."

— BOB S. (5/5)
