Why prefer organic cotton products over classic cotton?
conventional cotton cultivation has a negative impact on the environment and farmers
cotton fields occupy less than 3% of the world's arable land, but consume about 25% of all insecticides and 10% of all herbicides
chemicals that are banned in food production are used extensively for cotton cultivation
cotton is one of the most genetically modified plants, especially to tolerate above-average doses of chemicals
about half a kilo of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers are used to make one T-shirt and one jeans
in the cultivation and production of organic cotton, the use of toxic chemicals that cause poisoning of agricultural workers and damage to the environment, as well as genetically modified organisms, is prohibited
certified organic cotton farms strive to build a biologically diverse agricultural system and maintain soil fertility in a natural way
organic cotton is grown alternately with other types of plants, farmers grow 70-90% of rain irrigation during cultivation
organic cotton consumes up to 10 times less surface water resources
organic cotton, unlike conventionally grown cotton, does not cause allergic reactions, so it is suitable for children, allergy sufferers, eczema and people with sensitive skin
organic cotton products are easily degradable in nature and do not harm the environment
Elastan (2%)
Elastane is a synthetic material that gives your clothes flexibility and elasticity. Thanks to the elastane, the clothes hold their shape and do not pull out so easily. Clothing with elastane easily adapts to the shape of your body. Elastane also appears on the market under various trade names, such as Lycra or Spandex.
Benefits and characteristics
GOTS
The Global Organic Textile Standard certification represents the purest method of textile production. It is a guarantee that the clothing was created using procedures that are friendly to the nature and health of all people, including a fair approach and reward for the people who participated in its production. GOTS prohibits the use of genetically modified crops (GMOs) in cultivation and allows the use of only harmless fertilizers.
Sustainable materials
Made from materials that have been grown and processed with respect for nature, man and the environment.
Vegan
The product does not contain any animal components and no animal suffered during its production. Veganism is a way of life that seeks to eliminate all forms of animal exploitation and cruelty to animals for food, clothing, or any other purpose.
Temperature class A (from +10 to +35 °C)
Light socks suitable for warm weather with temperatures from 10 to 35 °C. Ideal for spring, summer, autumn. It is also the most suitable temperature class of socks for year-round household use.
How to extend the life of your socks?
After cutting the toenails, always grind with a fine file! Sharp edges on the nails in combination with the wrong size of the shoes are the most common reason for piercing the socks in the toe. If you want sharp toenails, wear kevral socks, not cotton.
Do not wear socks in smaller sizes. You may wear them, but excessive tension on the knit reduces the life of the socks and makes them easier to wear.
Wear shoes in the correct size, which is at least 5mm larger than the size of your foot. The small size of the shoes causes more intensive contact of the sock with the shoe in the area of the toe and heel, where the socks are subsequently abraded faster.
Quality socks in low quality shoes will not have a long life. Watch the wear of the inner parts of the shoes and change the shoes in time.
The perforation of the socks in the heel area is 80% caused by the abrasion of the sock against the worn (rough) inner part of the shoe.
Store the socks in the wardrobe in an unfolded state. The popular twisting of a pair of socks into a ball and fixing with the hem of one sock reduces the elasticity of the hems over time.
Eco washing organic cotton
Some recommendations for washing of organic cotton products:
stains and worse soiled areas are first treated with an ecological product for stains, or soaked in advance
organic cotton materials will appreciate washing in soap nuts - they remain soft and breathable. Natural soap flakes are also a suitable variant.
recommended washing temperature 60 ºC
for white linen we choose a product with ecological bleach (eg sodium percarbonate)
we do not use fabric softener on natural materials, it settles on the fibers and reduces the absorbency of the fibers
if other detergents are used, it is advisable to use a rinse aid for the final wash, which rinses the detergent residue from the material and thus keeps the laundry soft and breathable
These are only general recommendations. Usually the product also contains other textile fibers, so the authoritative instructions for treatment are always given on the product label.

What size sock do I need?
just find out the size of your shoes and choose socks in the same size
if you do not have any shoes with their size stated, it is necessary to measure the size of the foot as follows:
place the paper on the floor against the wall so that it is pressed directly against the wall
stand on the paper by pressing the heel directly against the wall
at the furthest point from the heel, where your foot reaches, draw a line directly in front of your toe
measure the distance from the edge of the paper to the painted line
you will find out the size of the foot in cm and select the correct size of socks according to the table above
How to choose the right size of socks?
the sizes of the socks are given in the EU sizes - derived from the French numbering of the shoes, which indicates the size of the inner insole of the shoe
you can find out the size from the size table above
you are in the range of two sizes - choose the bigger one and the socks will last you longer
