Product & Materials FAQs

What are Soleberie socks made from?

Soleberie socks are made from 39% bamboo, 37% organic cotton, 17% polyamide, 6% elastodiene and 1% elastane.
We have chosen this blend to create a sock that feels soft, comfortable and durable enough for everyday wear.
The heels and toes are made with cotton, with polyamide running through the heels, toes and sole to provide additional durability in the areas that work hardest.
Our socks are also OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, giving reassurance that the materials and components used have been tested for harmful substances according to the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 requirements.

Bamboo is wonderfully soft and gives the socks a lovely handle, which is one of the main reasons we chose it.
We wanted Soleberie socks to feel genuinely comfortable from the moment you put them on, whether you are wearing them in boots, wellies or trainers.

Bamboo viscose is a short fibre, which means some of the fibre ends can occasionally lift and create a slightly fuzzy appearance.
This is completely normal and does not affect the structure, performance or softness of the socks. In fact, it is a natural characteristic of bamboo-rich yarns.

Soleberie socks are made in Portugal by specialist sock manufacturers.
We chose to manufacture in Portugal because of the quality, expertise and attention to detail that goes into every pair.

Yes. Soleberie socks are designed as premium everyday long socks rather than being limited to a particular season, although you’ll probably find them most suitable from autumn to spring.
They are comfortable for daily wear throughout the year in a wide variety of footwear.

The bamboo and organic cotton blend helps create a soft, comfortable sock designed for long periods of wear.
Bamboo is an amazing plant and, when it is turned into yarn, it is equally amazing. It is thermoregulating, super absorbent and hypoallergenic. It can also help minimise odour.

Many customers choose bamboo-rich socks because they are exceptionally soft against the skin.
Soleberie socks are also OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, which means the materials and components used have been tested for harmful substances according to the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 requirements.
If you have a known fibre allergy or particularly sensitive skin, we recommend checking the full fibre composition before ordering.

Soleberie was born from a frustration with ordinary socks that slipped down, did not feel special and were generally a bit rubbish.
Every detail has been chosen to create a sock that feels soft, stays comfortable and stands up to everyday life.
The combination of bamboo softness, organic cotton comfort and reinforced high-wear areas creates a premium everyday sock designed to be worn again and again.

We use organic cotton and manufacture in Portugal with a focus on quality and longevity.
Our aim is to create products that are made to be worn and enjoyed for a long time rather than treated as disposable items.
Our socks are also OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, giving additional reassurance that the materials and components used have been tested to meet recognised product safety standards.

OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 is one of the best-known textile testing standards.
It means that the materials and components used in the socks have been tested for harmful substances according to the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 requirements.
