Product properties
Our sheep wool socks are made from wool of Mongolian sheep. Due to the proportion of synthetic fiber and bamboo fiber the socks fit perfectly and adapt to the shape of your feet. Sheep woolkeeps warm, is durable and can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture.. Like all wool products, sheep wool has a temperature-balancing and odor-neutral effect - so your feet feel comfortable at all times, even when you're out and about. The size of the socks is unisex and based on the size of the shoes.
A colorful spectrum of colors
Our beautiful socks made of sheep wool are available in different bright colors, as well as in light gray or anthracite. In everyday life we wear
them in sneakers with jeans or classically in boots.Durability & Care
Our sheep wool socks are also recommended for
for wearing in shoes due to their good durability. If you are on the road for several days, you can simply air the socks in between
and then put them on again. However, the nature of wool also means that even sheep's wool will eventually wear through - durability like that of synthetic fiber products can therefore not be guaranteed.
How are our products produced?
The entire value chain is located in Mongolia. We have lived in Mongolia for a long time and therefore know our producers personally. We buy the finished products directly on site and import them ourselves. Therefore, there are no middlemen and a large part of the revenue flows directly into Mongolia. Due to the short value chain, we can tell you exactly where the wool comes from:
Sheep shearing
Sheep live outside all year round and can move freely with their herd. For wool production, they are only sheared once a year in June when the grass is green and the fur is thick. The life of the nomads revolves around their livestock, as it represents their livelihood, their capital and also their retirement provision. After shearing, the nomads sell their wool in sacks to local wool traders. The price depends on the fineness and purity of the hair. Good wool yields can mean half a year's income for a nomadic family.
Spinning and washing
The wool travels by trains and cars from the provinces to the capital of Mongolia, Ulan-Bator. Our products are produced there by family businesses with less than 50 employees. They buy the wool, wash, dry, comb and spin it. Compared to many other countries, Mongolia is not a "low-wage country". For this reason, mainly high-quality textiles are exported here.
