Help & Guides
While barefoot is often considered the ideal for promoting natural foot development, there are times when our children — and even we — need a little extra warmth and comfort. That’s where high-quality barefoot socks, toe socks, and everyday socks come into play. Just like with shoes, selecting the right type of socks is crucial. We've curated a selection of socks that not only supports healthy foot development but also brings a touch of fun, personality, and a wide variety of materials and sock styles to suit every need.
From MP Denmark’s luxurious designs to the quirky charm of Solmate Socks, there’s something for everyone in our selection of socks — whether you need something lightweight for warm days or thicker wool options to combat cold feet.
Essential Guide to Choosing the Perfect Socks for Little (and Big!) Feet
What to Look for in Socks
Ensuring the health and proper development of your child’s feet means considering even the smallest details, including their sock selection. The right pairs of socks can make all the difference. Here’s what to keep in mind:
Fit and Flexibility
Socks should fit well without being too tight, allowing for natural toe movements. Choose socks with good elasticity to prevent slipping or bunching, such as comfy ankle socks or knee-high socks that stay in place during playtime.
Seam Construction
Look for socks with flat or minimal toe seams. This avoids discomfort and reduces the risk of irritation or pinching, which can occur in heavy knit sock styles like wool-rich heavy-knit ankle socks.
Heel Design
A distinct heel area ensures that socks stay in place and don’t gather uncomfortably at the toes. This is particularly important for active children and adults who need reliable wellie socks for their outdoor adventures.
Material
Breathable natural fibres, combined with soft and stretchy materials, offer durability and comfort. Toe socks and barefoot socks are great for promoting natural toe movement, while slipper socks are an excellent choice for lounging. Thicker options like wool socks are perfect for colder weather and keeping cold feet at bay.
Care Instructions
Avoid tumble drying to maintain the socks' shape and fit. Regularly check that socks still fit well to ensure optimal support.
