Product DescriptionNo fabric lets the body breathe better than wool does. Our grandmothers knew this well. Inspired by this wisdom, Julie's socks are knitted from Shetland wool, world-renowned for their softness and durability. Every year, we select very fashionable shades, to produce a range of colors and stripes that perpetuate a charming, traditional look.For those who spend long hours working either standing or sitting, for outdoor lovers or those who just like to take their shoes off, the 2009 collection offers stylish comfort. Besides, Julie's socks are easy-care: they're machine-washable (on the delicate cycle) and they're colorfast—the colors won't run or fade. Perfect to pamper your feet or for give a warm, thoughtful gift! The Virtues of Wool For the past 15 years, Julie's Socks has been perpetuating this beautiful hand-crafted tradition of striped socks, which owe their beginnings to our grandmothers' creative wisdom. And wisdom indeed, because of all fibers, wool is the one we love the best: - No fiber lets the body breathe better than wool. - It efficiently absorbs foot moisture. (Wool can absorb up to one-third of its weight in water!) - It insulates the skin from cold and heat, and thereby helps the blood circulate better. - It is hyper-allergenic and causes no breathing problems. - Wool is soft, long-lasting and ideal for fighting mildew and dust mites. Advice on Care Julie's socks are fully hand-finished and knitted with loving care from superior-quality, colorfast Shetland wool that won't run or fade. - Wash them in cold water on the delicate cycle of your washing machine. - Dry them flat. - Avoid using a clothes dryer, as it shrinks wool. If you want to dry them more quickly, first pat them dry with a towel, but don't wring them. A Well-Appreciated Gift "The colors are stylish and elegant; the fit is perfect… I just love wearing them." Those were the Duke of Windsor's words in thanking Brigid Berlin, back in 1959, for giving him striped, woolen, Murray Bay socks, named after the Charlevoix region of La Malbaie, which had an English name in those days. The Murray Bay socks captured the hearts of Americans and Europeans, and even toured the globe in photos. The Duke, renowned as a fashion plate, proudly wore them when photographed for an article in The New York Times Magazine. Would you like to give a duke-worthy gift? Julie's socks are the epitome of comfort and style. Each pair comes in a pretty wooden crate to enhance the hand-crafted appeal of this product made in Quebec.
