Women's Ankle Sock
"These socks are GREAT! Low enough to look sleek and just the right height to not slip down in your shoe. Thick yet breathable. I will be purchasing more."

Care
Machine wash cold on normal cycle. Tumble dry low.
Built on CiCLO® biodegradable fiber.
CiCLO® is built into our recycled synthetics to do two things: shed fewer microplastics in wear and wash, and biodegrade rather than linger. Independent testing shows CiCLO treated fibers biodegrade in under four years — so they don’t add to long-term microplastic pollution.
Certified by ECO PASSPORT by OEKO-TEX®.
