Our perspective

Small details.
A bigger journey.

DENALISE is for people who choose more time outside. We focus on hiking and skiing, paying attention to the blend, the knit and the way each pair works with footwear.

Materials

Merino wool is blended with supporting fibres for softness, stretch and structure. Each style has its own composition, matched to its intended use.

Construction

Cuff height, heel shape and cushioning affect how a sock sits inside footwear. Consider those details alongside the shoes or boots you wear.

Care

Looking after your socks is part of the journey. Follow the care label, wash gently and dry with care before your next day outside.

A few things worth knowing

Before the
next adventure.

Practical answers for choosing and caring for your next pair.

How do I choose a sock height?

Start with your footwear. Keep the sock cuff above the collar of your shoe or boot. Ankle and crew profiles suit different hiking footwear; ski-length socks should extend above a ski boot cuff.

How much cushioning do I need?

Compare the cushioning profile with the space in your footwear and your own preference. More cushioning changes the feel underfoot and can take up more room inside a close-fitting boot.

Are all wool blends the same?

No. The wool content and supporting fibers can differ between styles. Check the composition on the product page or care label for the specific pair you choose.

How should I wash my wool socks?

Use the care label as your starting point. Turn socks inside out, use a wool-safe detergent and avoid bleach or fabric softener. Machine wash only on a cycle and temperature permitted by the label.

Can I put wool socks in a dryer?

Only if the care label permits it. Otherwise, reshape the socks gently and dry flat, away from direct heat. Avoid twisting or forceful wringing.

Size guide

Measure first.
Choose with confidence.

  1. Stand on a sheet of paper and mark your heel and longest toe.
  2. Measure the distance between the two marks. Repeat for the other foot.
  3. Use the longer measurement and the size chart for your chosen DENALISE style.

Sizes and fit can vary by style. Use that product's chart rather than a general shoe-size conversion.

Sock height

Match the sock
to your footwear.

Ankle

A shorter profile for low shoes. Keep the sock cuff above the shoe collar.

Crew

More coverage around the ankle and lower leg. Compare the height with your hiking boot collar.

Ski

Choose ski-length socks that sit above the ski boot cuff. Check the product's size and cushioning profile.

Wool sock care

A little care.
A longer journey.

  1. Read the care label first. Turn your socks inside out and separate colors.
  2. Use a mild, wool-safe detergent. If the label allows machine washing, use the indicated gentle cycle and temperature.
  3. Avoid bleach, fabric softener and forceful wringing.
  4. Reshape gently and dry flat away from direct heat. Tumble dry only if the care label allows it.
  5. Store socks clean and completely dry. Rotate pairs between outings.

The care label on your particular pair takes priority over general advice.
