Alpaca Bed Socks Non Elasticated

  • £15.50
  • in stock

These bed socks are suitable for both men and women and we make them up to size 10-12. Natural undyed oatmeal 90% alpaca bed socks in what they call a 2 x 2 rib with no elastication. They slacken up quicker than the other socks but still never get to the stage where they feel too loose or about to fall off.

As with all our bed socks, 90% alpaca really is for house use only and not for plodding around the town! Alpaca naturally repels bacteria so these socks will stay fresh for a week or more, in fact they just get better and better with wearing.

We can send gifts all over the world and only charge the rates we are charged ourselves. Ireland is classed as Europe for postage purposes. Norway is not a member of the EU and goods will be subject to import duty. Customers in the Channel Islands need to specify their island and not select United Kingdom to have the VAT deducted - we cannot adjust it manually after the order has been placed. Import duty in Brazil is so absurd we suggest you do not even think about doing an order.

 All our alpaca bed socks are made of 90% alpaca and 10% nylon. Alpaca has unique hollow fibres that have higher insulating properties than any other wool. The fibre has a low "prickle factor" which means that it can be worn by babies and people with sensitive skins. It naturally repels bacteria and odour so socks can be worn for a week without the need to wash. Embrace the arrival of long-life socks! 

We have found that alpaca socks and knitwear wash beautifully and there is no shrinkage at all, ever. We have socks that have been worn and washed for five years and they are still perfect.

It is not heat that will ruin your alpaca goods but agitation,  this is why it is imperative to do them on a wool cycle only in your machine - or hand wash of course.

  • Wash on a 30/40°C wool cycle.
  • Can be washed gently by hand in tepid water with a short spin.
  • Wash dark colours separately.
  • Reshape while damp.
  • Do not bleach.
  • Dry naturally - they do take 24 hours to air dry properly.
  • Do not dry on direct heat such as a radiator or Aga.
  • Do not tumble dry.
  • Wash in a net bag or pillow case.
  • Can be ironed
