Meet the Salpaka Stripe Socks, our bestselling unisex luxury socks, designed to combine exceptional warmth, softness, and everyday durability. Expertly crafted in Britain from Genevieve's exclusive custom-spun yarn, they combine the insulating loft of natural alpaca with the resilience of fine merino wool, creating a sock that's as comfortable lounging at home as it is exploring outdoors.
Finished in a rich jade green with a charcoal-and-royal-blue marl stripe, the Salpaka is naturally breathable, temperature-regulating, and beautifully soft against the skin. Whether worn as cosy lounge socks or paired with winter boots, they're the pair you'll find yourself reaching for every day.

The Weight
Knitted in a medium-weight gauge, the Salpaka offers warmth without unnecessary bulk. The lofty alpaca fibres trap warmth while remaining naturally breathable, making these socks ideal for year-round comfort—warm enough for winter boots and cosy evenings, yet comfortable for everyday wear.
GS Style Advice
The ultimate two-in-one sock. Wear with walking boots, hiking shoes or everyday trainers for extra warmth on colder days, or pull them on with your favourite knitwear for slow mornings and evenings at home. Their rich jade green marl and royal blue marl stripe add a subtle pop of colour, making them equally suited to outdoor adventures, weekend walks and cosy nights by the fire.
