Women's wool and cashmere socks
Four Cottons wool and cashmere socks are one of those essentials you'll always want to have to hand.
The blend of both fibres gives real warmth while also bringing the soft, delicate feel of cashmere. They are knee-high, adapt to the leg without pinching and stay in place, without slipping down or wrinkling.
Comfort, hand-finished toes and 200-needle looms
Comfort is our priority, which is why we choose first-class materials and processes designed for the wellbeing of your feet.
The toe is finished by hand, so the seam is barely noticeable. We also knit them on 200-needle looms, the highest standard in hosiery, resulting in a denser, softer and more durable fabric.
You'll find them in a wide range of everyday colours, easy to pair with any look.
Where does cashmere come from?
Cashmere comes from the Kashmir goat, which lives in the mountains of Tibet, on the southern slopes of the Himalayas and in the Chinese region of Xinjiang.
Winters there are extreme, with temperatures reaching 30 degrees below zero. To withstand them, these goats grow a double coat: an outer layer of straight, thick, coarse hair, and an inner layer that is much finer and more delicate.
Despite technical advances, the fibre is still obtained using traditional artisan methods.
When spring arrives, the animal moults, and that is when herders gather the fibre by hand with meticulous care, following a ritual passed down from generation to generation.
Genuine cashmere is not sheared but combed, which yields longer, more valuable fibres.
The wool is then sorted into tufts according to its thickness and shade, which ranges from white to beige and may include black or reddish tones.
