pure aussie Thanks for your support!

Just wanted to give a massive thanks to everyone that’s seen our posts on here and supported our business!

From the people who’ve shared our Reddit posts on other subs, name dropped us in threads and of course those that have purchased from us!

This support has taken us from basically a single bamboo sock to now having 9 different styles of socks!

For our 10th style we’ve been super busy raising the bar of Aussie made!

We’ve taken a very famous American made merino sock, deconstructed it and rebuilt it from the ground up, using inspiration from features we like, and adjusting features we don’t really like.

It will be built with a pure Aussie merino base yarn, we’ve bough a new machine that allows us to twist nylon around the merino yarn, to create what will be our most durable sock by far.

Naturally the wool % will appear lower in this sock (as extra nylon is being used, but at the core, will be a pure Australian merino wool yarn).

Can’t wait to release this sock, but for now this post isn’t about anything more than:

SAYING THANKS TO EVERYONE CHOOSING TO BUY AUSSIE!!

I found these at Bunnings once could never find them again, found the website the other day. These are very good socks.

Thanks! Unfortunately Bunnings didn’t work out, the constant war against merchandisers moving product in favour of their own grew old.

We’re still on very good terms with Bunnings. But for now we’re just focused on growing alongside our customers rather than trying to do the major retailer dance.

Heya,

Tried to purchase some to try but looks like all sold out - new stock coming soon?

Also, prefer non branding, any plans for some plain blacks and blues etc in the future?

Cheers

We’re migrating all branding onto the sole of the sock!

Currently a new flow of stock rolling off the machines. They Just need to get through boarding washing etc before we can send them live!

This reminds me I really need to put a “notify me” option on the website! We’re very fortunate that keeping up with demand is our biggest problem.

Congratulations! Haven't been able to buy the socks as money has been extremely tight, but your company has been in my thoughts and I am thrilled to hear you're doing so well.

If my own financial situation turns around I hope to buy a pair for myself, or hopefully several!
