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

Awesome Socks!

"I have been wearing them in humid 90 + degree heat with no sweaty or hot feet. One of the other benefits of these socks is how they allow for an easy wide toe spread. They wash easily - I do use wool wash with lanolin because I have so much wool and I never out them in the dryer. When ordered, they came within a very reasonable time. After posting this, I am buying more! Looking forward to the winter test."

Great socks

"Comfortable, soft, and great fit."

— Ed L. (5/5)

They're just ok.

"I've only worn them once and the elastic band is unraveling and they are "pilling". They are comfortable and warm, but not worth the money. I'm disappointed."

— Lynn H. (3/5)

Q&A

What are the washing instructions for your socks?
Hi! Washing instructions are available on every item, and shown in the footer. General rule of thumb is machine wash cold, lay flat to dry. Please remember that alpaca socks are designed for more wears and you should only wash them they have been worn multiple times, not after every wear. Hope this helps! The Warrior Alpaca Sock Team.

At this time we don’t offer this sock in size XL, but we do have others that have that size available. - The Warrior Alpaca Sock Team
Do they have wide toe box
Yes! They do! Our socks are sized to allow for the best fit & have a designed toe box so no squished toes! - Hope this helps! The Warrior Alpaca Sock Team
