Ladies Wool Socks
Ladies wool socks have been in fashion for a very long time and they have no doubt remained in vogue through the years. There are a variety of ladies wool socks to choose from, and the starting point to your decision should ideally be the length and weight of the socks you are looking for.
The different types of socks include Ped socks or ‘’no see’’ socks, low-cut socks which come up just below the ankle bone, mini-crew socks with a length of about 5’’-7’’, crew length socks which are between 9’’-12’’ and the over the calf length socks which are about 15’’ or longer.
With a wide range of ladies wool socks, you will definitely have no problem in finding a pair to suit your needs, be it for fashion, cold winter nights or even outdoor activities.
Wool socks provide heat and insulation for feet and help keep feet dry because wool itself absorbs a considerable amount of damp before your feet start to feel it.
For that extra comfort and luxuriousness, you could find yourself a pair of ladies wool socks which have been made of Merino wool. Merino wool is a high-end type of wool and is said to be exceptional at regulating your body temperature and provides warmth without overheating. Since wool absorbs water of up to 30% of its own weight, it reduces the wearer’s risk of hypothermia in certain instances. And as most wools do, Merino wool also has the rather pleasant characteristic of being able to avoid the fabric from smelling bad due to sweating-which is a clear winner over synthetic materials. Ladies wool socks made of Merino wool will also have one of the softest feels of wool, owing to very thin fibers.
There are several well known brands for good quality ladies wool socks, amongst them are Cabela, Wigwam, Teko and Smartwool. However you could also find several websites which are dealers of high quality ladies wool socks, and a few of these include Bass Pro Shops, The Sock Site, Cabela’s and Probike Kit.

If however you are looking for really high end material, then try Altrec.com, where you could find Darn Tough Vermont’s range of ladies wool socks.
