Aussie Extra Thick Socks

Bring it on back home with the Bamboo Textiles Aussie Extra Thick Socks. These super soft socks are 100% Australian grown, made and owned with 90% Bamboo and 10% Elastane. Aussie Extra Thick Socks are made from wonderfully natural fibre that let your feet breathe. Say yes to no more stinky sweaty feet at the end of a long day. In fact, these socks have been worn by users for up to a week and remained fresh as a daisy. Strange, but true. The natural anti-bacterial properties of beautiful bamboo act like a natural deodorant.

They’re just like the Bamboo Textiles Extra Thick Socks, but not made in China. You might note the price difference, which is simply the cost of manufacturing in Australia. A small price to pay to keep the flow of energy on Aussie soil. And you won’t find a softer sock! These babies are so easy to slip on without rolling and pulling. Plus, the ribbed top keeps them up all day long without a hassle. Made in a simple, classic black with a grey marle sole. What’s not to love?

Why we love Bamboo.

You’ve probably noticed that your at the Hemp Store, not the Bamboo Store (Yes, you’re still in the right place). Bamboo has certainly made it’s mark on the world of sustainability, and here’s why: Bamboo is naturally fast-growing and self-regenerating, which means it doesn’t have to be replanted. Unlike cotton, Bamboo cultivation requires little amounts of water, pesticides and labour.

Research has gone in to answering “How do bamboo forests grow without pesticides”, and studies have found naturally occurring antibacterial properties may have something to do with it. In fact, the anti-bacterial agent in bamboo has its own name! “Bamboo Kun” combined with the tight molecular structure of bamboo fibres, is believed to give Bamboo its anti-bacterial and bacteriostatic properties – which is not diminished even after more than 50 washes! It is also quite different from chemical additives which can often cause skin irritations and other problems.

So go on! Slip into something more natural, more sustainable and softer than you’ve ever felt. Your new Bamboo Aussie Extra Thick Socks.
