Twelve stripes, none of them apologising. Knitted in combed Catalan cotton with a nylon-wrapped heel and toe, a flat toe seam you cannot feel through a trainer, and a rib cuff that still grips after forty washes.

Size — EU shoe sizeOn the line between two bands? Take the larger one — the cuff shortens about a centimetre after the first wash.
Posted for €3.90, free over €45. Ordered before 14:00 on a weekday, it leaves the same afternoon.
What's inthe envelope.
Four things, no plastic, nothing you have to throw away except the envelope itself — and that one is card.
A darning card
Two metres of the exact yarn on a stiff card, with a blunt needle slotted into it. Enough thread for three heels.
The wash note
Thirty degrees, inside out, no dryer — printed on the back of the band so it does not become another piece of paper.
A paid return label
Already paid for, already addressed. If the pair is wrong, it goes back in the same envelope with no message to us first.
Eleven minutesof machine time a sock.
Yarn and wash
72% combed Catalan cotton, 24% polyamide at heel and toe, 4% elastane in the cuff. Dyed in Olot in lots of thirty kilos. Thirty degrees, inside out, line dry — a tumble dryer takes the spring out of the cuff in about six cycles and nothing brings it back.
How it wears
The stripe is knitted, not printed, so it does not fade off the surface. The heel is the part that goes first: expect three winters of regular wear before it thins, and send it back for a free darn rather than binning it. Measured flat, a 39—42 is 26cm toe to heel and stretches to 29cm.
Fit notes
A tube sock with no shaped heel, which is why one band covers four shoe sizes. If you wear a narrow 39 it will feel generous at the ankle for a day and then settle. Nobody has ever sent one back for being too tight.
How we post it,how you send it back.
Anywhere in Spain, two to four days
Free over €45. €7.50 to the rest of the EU, five to eight days. Everything leaves the workshop the same afternoon if the order lands before 14:00 on a weekday.
Days to think again, worn or not
Worn or unworn, no form, no explanation. The paid label is in the envelope. Money back on the original card within five working days of the parcel reaching us.
Free darn, for as long as it is in the run
Post the pair back with a note and we will close the hole with the matching yarn and send it on. One darn per pair; after that we send you the thread and a diagram.
I bought the rainbow pair as a joke for my brother and then immediately bought three for myself. Two winters in and the heel has not thinned.

When this batch is gone the Rainbow colourway goes back on the machine in April with a slightly different pink, because that is how dye lots work.
