Luxury Collection by Nobile Italy 1982

Light and breathable cashmere for your feet

Cashmere wool is obtained from the Hircus goat, an activity that dates back about 3,000 years in Mongolia during the settlement of the first nomadic shepherd communities.

For centuries, the Mongols refined the techniques of cashmere production, making their product extremely valuable and sought after by international traders.

The Made in Italy processing of this ancient yarn brings a precious and sought-after product with unparalleled benefits to your feet.

Hircus Laniger goat

Noble Yarn

A single Hircus goat produces only about 150-200 grams of clean cashmere fiber per year, making its cashmere extremely rare and valuable.

The harvesting of this fine wool takes place once a year during the goat's shedding season, a completely natural and non-invasive process.

The result is an exceptionally soft and light yarn. Another advantage is that it naturally regulates temperature, offering comfort throughout the year by keeping feet warm in winter and cool in summer.

Properties

Breathable

Despite its warmth, cashmere from Hircus goat is highly breathable, which helps prevent moisture buildup and keeps feet dry and comfortable.

Its fibers contain microscopic air chambers that trap warm air, providing superior warmth compared to other types of fibers while remaining incredibly light and breathable.

This allows Hircus goat cashmere socks to keep feet warm without excessive overheating.

Comfort

Gentle on the Skin

Cashmere has a natural elasticity that allows the socks to fit well to the feet, offering optimal comfort and preventing the socks from moving or slipping.

It is also hypoallergenic, making it suitable for people with sensitive skin or allergies.

The fibers of the Hircus Laniger goat offer a superior level of comfort, making these socks a true pleasure to wear in every season and on every occasion.

Our socks are Made in Italy, entirely sewn in Racale, a town based in the south of Italy, known for being "the city of socks" thanks above all to the high skills developed by local craftsmen.

Our socks are made with the best cotton in the world and are more resistant than socks made by common cotton.

However, to better protect the natural shine properties and durability over time, it is recommended to wash by hand in cold water, with a non-aggressive neutral detergent.

Just leave the socks to soak in cold water with the detergent for less than 15 minutes, then rinse them, squeeze them, "beat" them and hang them out to dry.

The socks do not need to be ironed and can be worn as soon as they are dry. On the leg, they won't show any kind of wrinkles.

After taking charge of your order, it takes about 1-2 working days to process the order and 4-7 working days for shipping and delivery.
