Sock Stories

You may be interested to know that the socks you have supplied to me have been dog sledding in Central Oregon USA, skiing from various high mountains in the US, riding horses through the Rockies, walked into the Grand Canyon and tramped miles through Native American Reservations in New Mexico! All my socks are still fine, no holes, no smells, no problems! I love them and can't imagine how I got through life before them!

In June I bought some of your socks for use on an expedition to the Baltoro glacier in Pakistan.We successfully walked up the glacier for about 45 miles to reach K2 Basecamp at 16500ft., and then went over the Ghondokhoro Pass at 19250ft. and climbed Ghondokhoro Peak at 21200ft. The socks you sent me were magnificent. I wore two pairs - a pair of Sportsman underneath a pair of Companion - and my feet remained warm, dry and blister-free all through the 21 days of the trek, despite the fact that I wore my alpine boots throughout, in temperatures varying between 45C by day on the glacier and as low as -15C at night on the high pass. They withstood the trek very well, showing few signs of wear, despite being washed only infrequently in the glacial meltwater streams. Some of your socks are now being worn by our erstwhile Balti porters - some I gave away,others were stolen - and are much appreciated by them too, no doubt! Thank you for your excellent socks. They made a great contribution to my comfort on trek, and to the success of the expedition.

I am writing to let you know how very pleased I have been with the Corrymoor Mohair socks during my recent holiday in Iceland. So very comfortable. The socks will certainly remain on my gift list for Christmas.

My son wears Corrymoor socks in Jamaica and swears that they are excellent in the heat of the tropics.

Thank you for your reply. I have walked miles in your socks and have covered most of the Peak District and Derbyshire and my daughter, a police officer has plodded the beat in them for over five years and they are still keeping our feet warm and cosy.
A Big Thank You for a great product.
