about me

Hey there, I’m “roam”! I’m excited by the opportunity to become your new daily companion :)

Here’s why you should take me home with you:

• I'm designed for ultimate comfort: luxurious organic combed cotton (GOTS certified) stitched with a high-gauge needle count, which makes me supremely soft and long lasting.
• I won't slip down! My blister tab at the back helps me to stay up. It's one of my most attractive features :)
• My compression arch further enhances your support and fit. Add in my seamless toe and terry cushioned heel and sole, and you'll never want to take me off.
• And as with all my other hipSwan friends, you'll be supporting the planting of one tree for every order.

Regarding sizing, I come in three sizes (small, medium, large). Sizing is based on my length in centimetres and I've created a handy chart that maps my lengths onto approximate shoe sizes.

If you’ve any doubts about whether I'll fit you can return me within 60 days and just pay the return postage.

composition and care

Composition: 75% GOTS-certified organic combed cotton, 5% nylon, 20% lycra spandex

Care instructions:

Be gentle. Either hand wash or machine wash in cold water on the gentle cycle. If using a machine, it's best to place them in a laundry bag to protect them further just like other delicates. Use a mild detergent and never use bleach. Refrain from using fabric softener.

Turn your socks inside out. This way, the extra cushioning at the soles and heels will get a more thorough wash.

Do not use a dryer. The heat and circulation of a dryer will decrease the longevity of your socks. Best to air dry them on a drying rack.

Do not iron. There's no need to iron socks, and it's especially important to refrain from ironing those styles with silicone grippers (flow and chill).

sizing

hipSwan socks are available in three sizes (small, medium, large). Their inherent elasticity allows them to fit a wide range of feet and are not gender specific.

For additional guidance, the following chart presents the approximate shoe sizes that our socks are likely to fit:

What if the socks don’t fit me? No problem, you have 60 days to return them. Just pay the return postage and we'll refund you, no questions asked. The socks must be in new, unworn condition with the outer wrappers included. Full details of our return policy are here.
