Polly and Andy Bamboo Socks - Sustainable Antibacterial Soft Seams- Dotty (Adult Sizes)
Our summary: these are the comfiest socks we've ever had - everyone in the family agrees. They have soft seams so are ideal for kids and adults with sensory needs. They feel so soft wash after wash and because bamboo is antibacterial, they don't smell bad even in the room of a teenage boy :). It is also fantastic that Polly and Andy is a local business set up by a mum to help with her son's sensory needs. Super comfy, sustainable, suitable for kids and adults alike and supporting Irish business - a total win win that will last far longer than lots of mainstream brands! We recommend sizing up as some shrinkage will occur when washing.
Super soft socks that are moisture wicking, breathable and anti-bacterial as well as being long lasting and sustainable. Dotty isn't fully seamfree as they need a little extra thread to help her dots shine bright. But they are still super soft and non irritating.
The first layer of clothes on our skin is so important. All it takes is one scratchy label on a little neck, an irritating seam across sensitive toes, or rough texture against soft skin, to cause discomfort. And when a child can’t tell you what’s wrong, discomfort can become distress. After a lot of research, trial and error Polly found the perfect solution, bamboo. Bamboo is super soft and smooth and feels great against the skin. It naturally draws moisture away from the body where it can evaporate more easily and keeps skin cool and dry. Bamboo is sustainably grown, long lasting, retains its shape in the wash and is biodegradable.
Benefits for you and your family:
- Super soft and feels great, even against sensitive skin. So soft there is no need for fabric softener.
- Reinforced heel and toe for extra durability.
- Bamboo lets the air circulate around, keeping skin warm in winter, and cool in summer.
- Keeps skin dry - moisture wicking drawing sweat away from skin where it can evaporate.
- Antibacterial and antifungal, resistant to mould and mildew, keeping feet smelling sweet, without the need to wash as often as other materials.
- Strong and durable, keeping its shape and size after washing.
Benefits for the Environment:
- Bamboo is very fast-growing grass, therefore it self-generates, regrowing from the roots with no need to replant. This makes it a highly renewable resource.
- No nasty chemicals: A low maintenance crop, it requires absolutely no pesticides, no herbicides, no fertiliser and very little water to thrive.
- Absorbs 5 times more Carbon Dioxide and releasing 35% more Oxygen than timber or cotton.
Fabric: 75% Bamboo, 23% Nylon, 2% Spandex.
