Light Grey Wool Socks – Long

These light grey sheep’s wool socks from Skéépe are made from wool from Texel sheep. The long style sits higher up the lower leg, providing extra warmth. The socks are sturdy, warm and breathable, and are worn by both men and women who prefer natural wool socks.

Wool socks made from Texel wool

The wool for these socks comes from the Texel breed of sheep. The sheep live here in the salty sea air, surrounded by wind and open grasslands. This produces a strong and resilient wool, which has been prized for its quality for generations.

At Skéépe, it all starts with the wool itself. The wool is collected directly from Texel farmers and then washed, spun and finally knitted into socks. This way of working keeps the entire supply chain transparent and as local as possible.

Anyone wearing these sheep’s wool socks is also wearing a little piece of the island.

Long style for extra warmth

This style is the long version of our woollen socks. The sock sits higher on the lower leg and therefore stays securely in place in boots or sturdy shoes. Many people wear these long woollen socks whilst walking, when working outdoors or simply at home when it’s cold.

The light grey colour has a calm and natural look. This makes these woollen socks easy to pair with various outfits and they are often chosen as everyday warm socks.
