Which merino socks are right for you?

Which size should I choose?
Choose one size interval above your usual shoe size. For example, choose 44-46 for EU size 43. See the sock size guide.
How do I wash merino socks?
With your normal laundry at up to 60°C; regular detergent is fine when they are washed together with other clothes. Wash new socks before the first use to prolong their life and avoid lint. Dry flat or on a rack.
Why are the socks not 100% merino?
Socks take more friction than any other garment. Nylon in the heel and toe and a blend in the body give a sock that lasts many more kilometres, while the merino keeps feet dry and comfortable.
Can I try the clothes and return them?
WOOL Club members can try clothing for 30 days, including wearing and washing. Unused items have a 365-day return policy. Returns and exchanges are free from Denmark and the EU. See our return terms.
