Some things were better the old-fashioned way. These knee-high tube socks are knitted on traditional mechanical machines and hand-finished at the heel and toe, the way socks used to be made before everything got mass-produced. The deep ribbed calf keeps them snug and in place, whether you're pulling on boots or curling up on the couch. Made from a soft baby alpaca blend, they breathe better than synthetic socks — warm when it's cold, cool as the day heats up, and naturally hypoallergenic on top of it. A heritage-inspired sock that proves real craftsmanship never really goes out of style.

This sock: All-Season warmth, Cloud 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

"Softest and warmest socks ever."

VERY SOFT AND WARM.....THE MINUTE

"VERY SOFT AND WARM.....THE MINUTE I PUT THEM ON, MY FEET AND TOE PAIN GOES AWAY"

— Jo-Ann H. (5/5)

The Only Ones That Work

"I work in a "cold room" and after many tries to keep my feet warm, your socks were the best at warmth. I learned from experience that natural fibers warm the best. The Alpaca fiber, I find, keeps my elderly toes quite warm. They're better than the $35.00 cashmere socks I wore. They are well made and stand up to near constant wear. Wash as instructions say and you'll be happy too.!"

— Mary M. (5/5)

Old Fashion Tender Knee High Tube Sock

"I bought them for warmth as I work in a "cold room" everyday. The coverage the knee highs provide is the perfect amount of warmth. The blend of alpaca and other fibers really work better than some cashmere socks I've used in the past. I don't think about my frozen toes anymore."

— Mary M. (5/5)
