The ultimate sock guide
When dressing according to different conditions, the big question is often which pants or sweater is most appropriate, where the choice of underwear is not as crucial to the decision-making process. Just as the lower and upper garments are important factors, socks are of great importance for the outfit. Even though they are often hidden behind pants and shoes, the pair has a significant impact on comfort. How warm your feet are has a lot to say for body temperature, and using socks that provide too little or too much warmth will have a greater impact than one might think.

Among the wide selection available on the market, you will find bamboo socks, tennis socks, wool socks, and thick socks. Find the socks that best suit your type of training here!

Tennis Socks
Tennis socks are primarily made for physical activity and training. The socks are white, stretchy, and usually made of cotton.

Ankle Socks
During a workout inside a gym, the temperature will quickly rise, and a pair of ankle-height socks will be a good choice. You will feel a good breathability, which is important for a good workout. Just as you'll find short socks for training, there are also good ankle socks for everyday use. N When it comes to ankle socks for training, we recommend our short tennis socks. These are produced with the same good qualities as the long tennis socks, but are sold in a 2-pack.
Bamboo Socks
Fabric made from bamboo has a hollow fiber structure that makes it very absorbent and with good breathability. Bamboo is therefore a perfect material for socks. Feet can easily become clammy, and with good bamboo socks, your feet will fare better and bad odor is reduced. Our bamboo socks are sold in a 2-pack and are designed not to show over your shoes. They are therefore perfect for summer under a pair of ballet flats or sneakers.

Wool Socks
For colder days, it is important to have good wool socks that keep you warm. As mentioned earlier, socks are a crucial factor for maintaining body temperature, and therefore wool socks are essential in winter. Perhaps more people associate wool with itchiness and discomfort - and clothing made from these materials may be avoided. On the other hand, there are wool socks that neither itch nor feel overly large and bulky on the foot.
Our high wool socks are made from soft merino wool, which makes them comfortable, functional, and warm. Due to their length, they are perfect for physical activity outdoors, while they can also be good for indoor use for extra warmth.
Thick Socks
A pair of thick socks is, unlike the two aforementioned wool socks, a thicker option. These are perfect for cabin trips or as a pair of cozy socks at home by the fireplace. Due to their thickness, they provide maximum warmth, which will be a comfortable alternative for the coldest days. Our thick socks are made with breathable properties, making them perfect for cold and wet climates - as is usually the case in Norway during autumn and winter.
