Children yak socks - grey

Mongolian yak from Arkhangai province has really fine and soft fur. It lives in area where the temperature drops to -35°C in winter. As soon as your hand touches the fiber, you will feel its luxurious, soft and silky touch. You may even feel like you have cashmere in your hand as the texture is incredibly light and has the same softness.

Anything made from this premium wool will keep you warm and dry as their fibers do so for yaks in Mongolia. Breathable, quick-drying, comfortable even for long outings. Yak down fibers are hollow, allowing them to trap air and provide high warmth-to-weight ratios.

Yak down even outperformed Merino in independent laboratory testing boasting 40% more warmth, 66% greater air permeability, and 17% greater water vapor permeability than Merino wool fabrics.

Please, do not wear the socks in shoes. As yak wool is really soft and delicate, the socks won't last long in shoes or while walking around in apartment due to rubbing and pressure.

We recommend washing socks as less as possible. If possible do not wash. Wool contains lanolin (animal fat), which acts as a natural impregnation, i.e. repels dirt and impurities from the surface of the fabric. Anything made from wool doesn't get dirty as quickly. Simply wipe it off or let it air out in the fresh air. If you have to wash, preferably by hand wool detergent. We recommend reading more about the care instructions here.
