Are they hot in summer?
Not at all.
Lightweight merino regulates temperature better than cotton or synthetics. It wicks moisture fast, dries quickly, and stays comfy whether it’s hot or cold.
No swampy feet. No heavy wool feeling.
What’s the point of toe socks?
Toe socks keep your feet drier, fresher, and blister-free by preventing skin-on-skin rubbing.
Creepers combine superfine merino + toe separation to deliver:
🩹 Blister prevention
💦 Fast moisture wicking
🦨 Natural odour resistance
👣 Better toe splay & comfort
Perfect for running, hiking, travel, and long days on your feet.
How are Creepers different from other toe socks?
Most toe socks feel synthetic, get sweaty, or wear out fast.
Creepers are built different:
👉 Superfine merino (no itch, dries fast)
👉 Seamless toe sleeves
👉 Lightweight performance knit
👉 NZ-designed and athlete-tested on real trails
👉 Natural feel. Zero bunching. Long-lasting comfort.
Why merino wool over alpaca, cotton, or synthetics?
Merino gives the best balance of comfort + performance:
🔥 Regulates temperature in heat and cold
💨 Dries faster than cotton and traditional wool
🦠 Naturally antimicrobial (less stink, fewer washes)
🧈 Softer feel — especially our superfine grade
🏔 Performs wet — unlike cotton, which collapses when damp. It’s the go-anywhere, do-anything fibre that never feels overbuilt or sweaty.
Is your merino responsibly sourced?
Yes — 100% of our wool meets the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), ensuring high standards of animal welfare and land management.
All yarn is OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified, meaning it’s tested safe for skin.
