Samantha Holmes Alpaca Running Socks
Artisan Crafted
Ethically Made
The Samantha Holmes Alpaca Running Socks are super soft, supportive, durable sports socks, designed for all season high-intensity activity and running. Alpaca, softer and less irritating than sheep's wool, has moisture-wicking, thermoregulating capabilities that makes these socks the perfect companion for any athletic activity.
Samantha Holmes founded her design label in Scotland in 2003 as a niche lifestyle brand, specialising in natural, handcrafted clothing, gifts and home textiles ethically made by their artisan studios in Peru using the softest alpaca. They are a ‘slow fashion’ brand focusing on product longevity and sustainable practices, in which their alpaca yarn and fur are made and sourced ethically and responsibly in Peru, completely cruelty-free.
