Rib Beanie
- Unisex
- 7-gauge
Price includes VAT. Shipping is worked out at checkout.
Thick ribbed wool socks for cold floors, with a nylon-reinforced heel and toe so the wool does not wear through.
Pick a size before adding it.
Knitted on a 7-gauge machine, which makes them thick enough to replace slippers on a tiled floor. Mostly wool for warmth, nylon in the heel and toe for the places that wear, a little elastane in the leg so they stay up without a tight band. Sized by shoe size, not S/M/L.
Wool socks felt in a 40 °C wash: they come out smaller, denser and permanently so. Wash at 30 on a wool cycle and they last for years.

Honest bit. The way this fabric behaves - what pills, what shrinks, what creases - is written above, not hidden. The care guide goes fibre by fibre.

The weight listed on the page is the weight that turned up. I have stopped trusting photos and started trusting grams, and this shop gives you grams.
Second order. The sizes line up between the hoodie and the joggers, which sounds basic until you have bought a set elsewhere that did not.
Pilled slightly for the first washes, exactly as the page said it would, then stopped. I would have preferred no pilling, but I would rather be told.
Socks are sized by EU shoe size. If you are on the line between two, take the smaller: the rib stretches, and a sock that is too long bunches at the toe.
