3 pairs of white bamboo tennis socks mix with green/blue/red stripes and long rib

Three pairs of white bamboo tennis socks with a long ribbed leg and stripes in green, blue and red

If you cannot choose between the stripe colours, this is the solution: three pairs of white ribbed socks where the stripes vary in green, blue and red, so the pack covers the whole palette of the striped models in the range. Three pairs, three expressions, one construction. The model is unisex, and the sizes run from 30/33 to 45/49.

A mix that makes sense

The single shade packs give you identical pairs, but the stripe mix gives you options. Green stripes for the earth toned days, blue for denim, red when the sock is meant to play off the rest. Because the base is white and the leg is the same on all three pairs, the drawer still looks coherent, and every pair matches the same shoes. That is variation without mess.

The long ribbed leg

All three pairs have the long, rib knitted leg of the range. The ribbing grips the calf along the whole length of the leg and keeps the sock smooth and upright from morning to evening without a tight single edge. The stripes sit at the top, where they are visible above the shoe, and with three different stripe colours it is rather the point that the leg stays up, so that the stripes are actually seen.

The foundation of the tennis sock

The underside of the foot is knitted extra thick and cushions the pressure against hard floors, so the socks are just as useful on long days on your feet as they are for completing an outfit. The heel is shaped in the knit, and the seams over the toes are flat, so nothing rubs inside the shoe.

The material

The socks are knitted from 75 % bamboo viscose, 23 % polyester and 2 % elastane. The bamboo viscose moves sweat away from the skin and out into the fabric, where it evaporates, so your foot stays dry and fresh all day. The polyester reinforces the heel, toe and sole, and the elastane works together with the ribbing to keep the leg up. How bamboo ends up as soft knitting yarn is described under how bamboo viscose is made.

Certification

The socks are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, cert. no. 976-15301. The certificate covers all materials, including the dyes in all three stripe colours, so the whole pack is tested for harmful substances.

An obvious gift

The stripe mix is also the easiest of the ribbed socks to give away. Three different stripe colours mean that at least one will suit the taste of the recipient, and because the model is unisex and the sizes run from a child's foot to a large man's foot, it is hard to get it completely wrong. Socks in the gift class should be ones the recipient would not have bought themselves, and a white ribbed sock with coloured stripes is precisely that. The full overview for both men and women is found under socks for men and women.

Washing

Wash the socks together at 40 degrees with your light laundry. The stripes are colourfast and do not run onto the white base, not even across the pairs. Avoid fabric softener, and let the socks air dry, so the ribbing keeps its spring. More advice is set out under washing and care.

Size and the rest of the range

Choose the range your normal shoe size falls in, and the smaller of two if in doubt, because a long leg needs a precise fit. If you later want to buy your favourite among the stripes as three identical pairs, all three combinations are available as separate packs. If you are in doubt about anything along the way, the answers are found under frequently asked questions, and the entire range can be found under bamboo socks.
