Quality lacking

Usually love my Quinn items but I bought the lightweight merino wool socks in a three pack and at first loved them. Unfortunately they didn't even last a season. The socks have shrunk despite washing only as needed and following the instructions, and due to the shrinkage, there are now holes in the heels of my socks. They are no longer usable in these chilly Canadian winters. Disappointed. Hoping that my heavier weight one's last longer!

Hi Danielle,

I'm so sorry this happened. Since these socks are not heavily treated some shrinkage is normal with wool. If this has been under one year of use, we would be happy to replace them for you. Please respond to this email and we will get that going for you.

We are once again sorry about your experience.

#1 coziest merino sock

These midweight merino socks are so cozy and warm.

I have and love many merino socks by many makers. They are all good, but these are the coziest and warmest for daily use.

Merino wool on its own is not very sturdy for socks. Many makers choose nylon as the helper material. These are blended with organic cotton instead which is just super cool.

Pros:
Super cozy
Natural fibers
Warm but not too bulky
Ethically sourced merino
Organic cotton

Cons:
Sizing runs large (but that means if you shrink them it'll be okay. Size s/m pictured on 24.5cm feet)
Slippery on wood and tile floors (usual for wool)

Incredibly soft, warm, and comfortable

I bought these for my husband who seems to literally tear through socks every year (always holes). He requested merino wool because he live in 4-seasons. I did some research and found Q for Quinn has an exceptionally high ratio of actual merino wool in their socks compared to other brands. Also love supporting Canadian companies. My husband is really impressed with the quality and loves them. We’ll definitely be repeat purchases.

Comfortable and warm

These are great socks. They are very comfortable, warm and not too thick. They are my go-to socks when I wear my winter blundstones.

Hi Terence, thanks so much for the lovely review! We’re delighted your socks keep your feet comfortable and warm in your winter Blundstones. We really appreciate your support!

Merino wool socks

First of all, these socks are so soft and warm! The only trouble we have with them is the fit. I bought the 2-4T size for my 2.5yo, and the socks are big enough to fit my 6yo. All of the socks are floppy in the foot and snug on the ankle. In my 8yo daughter's case, she has trouble getting the socks over her ankle, and she's an average sized girl. The material is fantastic, the fit needs work.

Hi Karli, thank you for sharing your feedback! We're glad you love the softness and warmth of our socks. We appreciate your note about the fit and will consider it for future improvements. If you'd like, feel free to reach out with specific sizing concerns. Thanks for being a valued customer!

Adult sizing is true to fit but I wish the kids sizes had more options.

It’s so hard to find wool socks that aren’t made with so much plastic. These fit perfectly in my rainboots and are so cozy and warm.

Warm light socks

These socks don't pinch my toes. They are warm yet light so I can wear them with my regular shoes. The green color is earthy and beautiful. Highly recommend! I'd love to see these in brown or taupe..

Hi Emily, thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoy the socks and appreciate the color suggestions. We'll pass that along to our team. Stay warm and stylish!

Nice but longer than expected

There is no length information on the website and from the pictures I assumed the socks are mid-calf, but they actually go to my knees. The socks are super soft and warm however, I just wish there was more information on the website, partially my fault for assuming I guess.

Hi Shayna, thank you for your feedback! We're glad you find the socks soft and warm. We'll work on providing clearer length information on our website to help future customers. Enjoy your winter adventures!

Super soft and warm

My favourite socks that I ordered. Beautifully cushioned, warm and super soft. They feel luscious. I really love them but will give my mum the pink ones because it’s her birthday and her feet are always cold.

Parfaites!

Ces chaussettes sont parfaites. Je les mets même l’été comme bas dans la maison, ça remplace mes pantoufles et je peux les laver (contrairement aux pantoufles). Elles sont confortables et chauds par temps froids. Très satisfaite! Les couleurs sont très belles.

Soft but major fit issues

I really wanted to love these socks because I'm a fan of the idea of cotton/wool socks, and they're really soft. However, the size small socks have some major fit issues in my opinion. I'm a women's 7.5 and on first try on the foot section of the sock was easily 2" too long. The leg section is also extremely long (almost like it could reach my knee), but the top of the sock is way too tight for my calves to fit. So I end up with very baggy socks in the foot/ankle. I did put them in the dryer, which helped a little, and I'm hoping a few more washes/dryer cycles will make them wearable.

Amazing

This is the third purchase of GOTs certified socks that I have purchased. The other two companies are okay. Q for Quinn is absolutely the best! This is where we will purchase our socks from now on.

Hi Kariann, thank you for the amazing review! We are so happy to hear that our Merino Wool - Cotton Midweight Adult Socks have exceeded your expectations. We pride ourselves on using GOTs certified materials and we are glad that it shows in the quality of our products. We look forward to being your go-to for socks in the future.

Perfect socks

These socks keep my feet the perfect temperature no matter what I am doing. They are soft and comfortable. Though not designed specifically for skiing, they make the best ski sock I have ever worn (with perpetually cold feet, I have tried many ski socks!) I found the S/M socks were TTS for my size 8 feet.

Love

These are amazing socks. It was my dream to find merino wool blended with cotton socks instead of nylon. So thrilled that I found these. My only con is that you make a heavyweight merino/cotton blend for my super cold feet and ankles. Hope to find them for the next winter season. Hint, hint, and I will give you 10 stars.

Lovely, sustainable socks

I’m really liking the socks I ordered from Q for Quinn. They are soft, the designs are cute, the colour palette is attractive to me - soft, muted colours, and my toddler loves the cute animal designs on his socks! I love that they’re made from natural fibers. I love that there is attention to wide toe foot splay which is important to me and they feel roomy in the toe area. The seams are soft. I had to change the setting for my washing machine to wash my clothes in delicate because of the socks, which I wasn’t expecting and they aren’t as high as I was expecting (the quarter pacers). They also don’t have a higher option that I noticed (I don’t shave my legs in the winter and I like to ensure even if my pants rise when I move my legs that my lack of leg grooming isn’t noticed). The last reason I’m only rating 4 stars instead of 5 is that I’ve been looking for awhile, and I haven’t found wool socks for toddlers with grips. I understand being a small business can cause delays in materials and things, however. Otherwise, I love them and their commitment to sustainable production and living! Also, last to note, I noticed some shrinkage after washing with the cotton adult socks, but they’re stretchy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need more info? We’ve got you covered.

What’s the difference between GOTS certified and non-GOTS certified Merino wool socks?

Our GOTS certified Merino socks use an enzyme treatment that makes them machine washable and more resistant to pilling and shrinking. Our RWS (non-GOTS) Merino socks are pre-washed, and pre-shrunk, but don’t use the enzyme treatment. This is why the GOTS certified socks are at a higher price point.

Please note however, due care must be taken with both types of socks when washing and drying. Laying flat to dry is the most recommended for all of our socks given they are made from natural fibres that are more delicate.

How tall are the socks?

These are a classic crew height, sitting mid-calf.

What’s the difference between Midweight Merino Wool Socks and Merino Winter Sports Socks?

Winter sports socks are lightweight and designed for performance, making them ideal for activities like skiing. Because they’re breathable and not bulky, they can also be worn comfortably year-round. Midweight socks, on the other hand, have added cushioning and a slightly thicker feel, making them better suited for cooler seasons and everyday wear when you want extra warmth and comfort.

Are the socks seamless?

Yes, all of our socks are designed with a seamless toe for added comfort.
