Wool is one of those timeless materials, appreciated for centuries for its warmth, softness, and durability. Even today, it's found in many everyday accessories: wool socks for men and women, scarves, neckerchiefs, and warm hats.

But what makes wool so exceptional? Why is it considered a premium and eco-friendly material? In this article, we'll explain everything you need to know about wool, how to choose it, and why it's ideal for your accessories.

Wool comes primarily from shearing sheep, but also from other animals such as alpacas, cashmere goats, and mohair goats. After shearing, the fiber is cleaned, sorted, and then spun to become a warm, soft, and durable yarn. Wool is:

• 100% natural
• Renewable
• Biodegradable

Unlike synthetic materials, it does not release microplastics and requires minimal chemical processing. Ideal for those who want to consume more responsibly and prioritize sustainable fibers.

Each wool fiber contains air, which creates a natural barrier against the cold. As a result, it keeps your feet and head warm, even in a damp or windy environment.

➡ Our men's and women's wool socks and hats are therefore essential for winter.

Unlike cotton, which retains water, wool can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture while remaining dry to the touch. This allows you to:

• limit perspiration,
• avoid feeling damp or cold,
• maintain lasting comfort.

➡ Our wool scarves and neckerchiefs are perfect for keeping you comfortably warm without ever feeling stifled.

The structure of wool fibers prevents bacterial growth. Fewer bacteria mean fewer odors. This is a huge advantage for wool socks, especially during long days or for sports activities. You can wear them longer without discomfort, a real plus when traveling!

Wool is a naturally durable material, but it requires delicate care to maintain all its qualities and softness. Here are our washing recommendations for our wool products:

• Fill a basin with cold or lukewarm water (maximum 30°C).
• Use a mild detergent, specifically for wool or delicate fabrics.
• Wash the item gently, without rubbing or twisting the fibers.
• Rinse with clean, cold water.
• Gently squeeze to remove excess water, without wringing.
• Dry flat on a towel, away from direct heat and sunlight.

Choosing wool accessories means choosing comfort and quality. Naturally insulating, breathable, and soft, wool provides immediate comfort, whether in socks, a hat, or a scarf. Durable and elegant, it retains its shape over time and adapts to all styles and seasons. With wool, you're investing in accessories that are both practical, warm, and timeless.

Wool is the ideal material for everyday accessories. Warm, breathable, durable, and stylish, it ticks all the boxes. Whether you're looking for soft and breathable socks, an elegant scarf, a stylish small scarf, or a warm hat, wool guarantees comfort and durability.
