EliaYoga wool and silk adult socks Hirsch Natur

Feet play a central role in thermoregulation and relaxation.

These adult wool and silk Hirsch Natur socks, formerly known as "bed socks," were designed to accompany moments of rest, relaxation, and recovery. Knitted from untreated natural fibers, they offer gentle, breathable, and stable warmth, ideal for preparing the body for sleep or supporting physical recovery phases. The body falls asleep more easily when it feels thermally secure. Having slightly warmed feet promotes peripheral vasodilation, a physiological mechanism that helps the body lower its core temperature, an essential condition for falling asleep. These wool and silk socks naturally support this process, without overheating or a suffocating sensation. These socks are knitted from a particularly balanced blend of 70% organic merino wool and 30% mulberry silk. The wool provides warmth, thermal regulation, and moisture management, while the silk adds exceptional softness and a soothing glide on the skin.

The low cut at the ankle, combined with a soft, non-compressive ribbed cuff, ensures comfortable support without hindering circulation. The foot is perfectly formed, offering optimal comfort both when lying down and during gentle practices such as yoga, relaxation, or rehabilitation.

The benefits of untreated wool and silk

Used without chemical treatment, wool and silk retain all their natural properties:

• Natural thermoregulation: warm without overheating
• Excellent moisture management (up to 33% of the wool's weight)
• Dry feeling, even when sweating
• Soft and soothing contact for the nervous system
• Living, breathable, and biodegradable fibers

Unlike synthetic socks, these fibers do not create an occlusive effect and do not trap excessive heat or moisture.

Care instructions

Wool and silk require little washing. It is recommended to air the socks between uses and only wash them when necessary.

• Hand wash only
• Lukewarm water
• Same temperature for washing and rinsing
• Lay flat to dry, air dry

These socks should be treated with the same care as a handmade knit. Like all natural fibers, wool wears out faster than synthetic fibers: darning can extend their lifespan.

Why I recommend them

I recommend these socks because they address an often underestimated need: warming the body without disturbing it. They support sleep, relaxation, and recovery with rare precision, thanks to noble, untreated fibers that are deeply respectful of the body. It's a small item, but a great ally for rest.
