Our grandparents
recognised the comfort and quality of a hand knit sock. The
design mirrors the human foot in striking detail. When
combined with nature's finest wool and cotton fibres, a
treasure is to behold!
Oldtymestockings hand knit socks uphold the time-honoured
tradition of custom-fitted ankles, heels and toes. Lengths
are precise and made to measure.
Our grandparents emphasised the benefits of natural fibres.
The absence of foot disease and skin disorders was secondary to the excellent wicking
properties of wool.
Their wisdom and insight are preserved in each sock.
Oldtymestockings hand knit socks are seamless.
Viscount Kitchener of Khartoum's introduction of seamless
hosiery during the First World War freed many from the
anguish of foot sores and calluses.
Such
ailments were caused by
seams along the ventral surface of hosiery.
