Size Chart
Sock Sizing
Socks should fit as well as any of your other garments. The heel should sit on your heel and not under it as in a sock too small, nor half way up your Achilles as in a sock that’s too large. Socks should be flush against your foot with no extra material sagging. The toe seam should lay flat across the top of the toes.
Sock Heel at Your Heel
The sock heel should sit on your heel, not under it or above it.
Flat Toe Seam
The toe seam should lie flat along the top of your toes, not above or below.
Taut Across the Foot
Socks should be taut across your foot with no sagging material. If you wear a wide shoe size (E+), consider sizing up.
| Shoe Size | US Men | US Women |
| Small | – | 3 – 6.5 |
| Medium | 7 – 9 | 7 – 10 |
| Large | 9.5 – 11.5 | 10.5 – 12.5 |
| X-Large | 12 – 14 | – |
Insole Sizing
The right insole can make a significant difference to your comfort. The insole should fit the shape and contour of your shoe and the length should be a perfect match. The toe of the insole should not crumple up against the inside of the shoe, nor should it be too short.
Insole Matches Shoe Contour
The insole should fit the shape of your shoe, without any overhang or gaps.
Perfect Length
The insole should match the length of your shoe perfectly. The toe of the insole should not crumple or be too short.

| Small | 5 – 6.5 | 6 – 7.5 |
| Medium | 7 – 8.5 | 8 – 9.5 |
| Large | 9 – 10.5 | 10 – 11.5 |
| X-Large | 11 – 12.5 | 12 – 13.5 |
Bison / Alpaca fibre socks with no wool
All of our Alberta LINE of socks are made from a unique "Made in Alberta, Canada" bison blend yarn. This blend is composed of 40% Bison, 40% Alpaca, and 20% Nylon fibres for our softest sock yet. This cushy and cozy sock simply has an incredible feel on your feet. The soft and fuzzy Terry knit used to create this sock is great for anyone looking to get the benefit of bison fibre (warm, soft) and not have any of the sheep wool fibre in the blend.
Superior breathability, temperature regulation, and natural odor resistance!!
Material Composition
Yarn bases for all our gear is (and will always be) natural fibers. This means that the internal structure of your socks (the parts that touch your skin) will be made from bison fiber, merino wool, mulberry silk, and other 100% natural fibers.
The overall composition (the parts that touch your skin plus everything else) will include other materials like nylon or polyester. This is done to make the sock more durable and ensure that your socks work (and play) as hard as you do.
Yarn Base Composition
40% Bison down / 40% Alpaca / 20% Nylon
Overall Composition
40% Bison down / 40% Alpaca / 20% Nylon
