The detail
Tap a point to see how they are made
Embroidered, not printed

The animal is stitched into the sock in thread. Print cracks and fades; thread outlasts the sock.

Fully seamless toe

No ridge of stitching across the toes — the usual source of rubbing inside a shoe.

Cushioned heel and sole

Denser bamboo loops underfoot for padding where your weight actually lands.

Composition
Bamboo-rich blend, knitted in a seamless tube
73% Bamboo ViscoseFor softness and breathability
17% CottonFor added durability
8.5% NylonTo form the structure
1.5% SpandexFor stretch and shape retention
Machine wash at 30°, inside out. No tumble dryer, no fabric conditioner — that is what keeps the embroidery sharp.
Why bamboo

Soft enough to wear every day, not just the fun days

Bamboo pulls sweat off the skin rather than soaking it up, and resists odour on its own. That is the difference between a novelty sock worn once and a pair that lives in the regular rotation.

Embroidered animal socks, stitched not printed

Five designs: panda, bee, koala, sloth and capybara. Each animal is embroidered into the sock rather than printed onto it, which is the difference between a sock that still looks right after thirty washes and one that cracks and fades by the third.

Underneath the design they are the same sock as the rest of the range: knitted fully seamless, cushioned through the heel and sole, with a non-binding cuff. That matters more than it sounds. Novelty socks are usually novelty first and sock second, so they end up in the drawer after one wear. These are made to be the pair you actually reach for.

Which one to choose

Buy a single design in a three-pair pack, or take all five animals together in the five-pair set. The set is the one people tend to buy as a gift: it looks like a considered present rather than an afterthought, and it still arrives in plastic-free packaging rather than a plastic-windowed box.

Questions

Will the design survive the wash? Embroidery is thread, not ink. Wash at 30°C and skip the tumble dryer and it will outlast the sock.

Can I mix designs in one pack? The three-pair packs are single-design. The five-pair set gives you one of each.

Questions, answered

Will the design survive the wash?+

Embroidery is thread, not ink. Wash at 30°C and skip the tumble dryer and it will outlast the sock.

Can I mix designs in one pack?+

The three-pair packs are single-design. The five-pair set gives you one of each — panda, bee, koala, sloth and capybara.

What size are they?+

UK 4–8. They are knitted with plenty of stretch, so they sit comfortably right across that range.

Do they work as a gift?+

The five-pair set is the one people buy as a present. It looks like a considered gift rather than an afterthought, and it still arrives in plastic-free paper packaging.

How does buy 2 get 1 free work?+

Add three packs of anything from the sock range and the cheapest one comes off automatically at checkout. Mix and match freely.

How long does delivery take?+

Free UK delivery over £30, typically 3–5 working days. Express is available at checkout if you order before the cut-off.
