Nordic Sock Company FAQ
Answers about our wool-blend Nordic socks, shipping from West Sussex, European production, washing and sizing. Featured in British Vogue. Free UK shipping on orders over £40.
Who are we?
We are four friends from Norway and Finland. We founded The Nordic Sock Company to bring high-quality warm socks — the kind we grew up with in the Nordics — to countries that do not usually stock them. We have spent years refining materials and styles so your feet stay warm and cosy.
Where are the socks made?
All of our socks are produced in Europe. All of our yarns are sourced from ethical European suppliers. Designed in Finland and Norway; manufactured in Finland and other European countries.
Where are the socks shipped from?
Orders from this website ship from West Sussex in the United Kingdom. EU customers worried about customs can also buy through our Amazon store.
How fast do you deliver?
We do not dispatch on weekends. Every shipment gets a tracking number by email after dispatch.

Were your socks featured in British Vogue?
Yes. Venetia Scott and Juergen Teller featured them in the November 2020 issue.
Washing instructions?
All socks contain wool. Wash at 30°–40°. Do not tumble dry.
Are all the socks handmade?
Only pairs clearly labelled Hand-crafted or Handmade are hand knitted in rural Finland. We can discuss special commissions — they take longer and ship from Finland.
Which sock is warmest?
Ultra Warm Finnish Wool Socks at 80% wool — our thickest boot sock for deep cold and long hikes. Norwegian Fjord works well for all-day walks. Danish Hygge and Icelandic Saga suit evenings in and bed socks.
Are the socks unisex?
Yes. Sizing runs across standard UK and EU ranges for women and men.
