7 Reasons Why Camel City Mill Socks Are Transforming the Work Week for Trade Workers.
And Keep Selling Out.

Struggle with sweaty feet in your work boots?

Do you have to change your socks mid-day? Or just suffer through the back-half of your day with damp, squishy socks? And you get blisters or tender feet?

The Camel City Mill Lightweight work sock is designed specifically for tradies, construction workers, and anyone working a blue collar job to ensure they never have sweaty feet in their work boots again.

But how?

1. Ironside Merino Wool: 35% More Sweat Wicking than Polyester or Nylon

Merino wool is the best natural sweat wicking material out there. Think about it: nylon and polyester are plastic. Most “sweat wicking” socks are made entirely out of these synthetic fibers. So they’re basically like wearing plastic bags on your feet. Let’s change that.

Wool is proven to be 35% more effective at wicking sweat compared to synthetic fibers, so you won’t have sweaty feet ever again.

2. No Sweat Venting Where it Counts

We all know that a huge amount of heat is thrown off your feet. But we analyzed where on your feet that heat jets off from. Turns out, you release most of your heat through the top of the foot, where the skin is thinner and allows for better cooling.

We designed No Sweat Vents into the top of the sock to maximize the amount of airflow and allow air to naturally cool you down. This not only helps keep your feet from sweating, but it’ll keep your entire body cooler as the blood recirculates. Speaking of circulation...

3. Light Compression to Promote Better Circulation

The Camel City Mill Lightweight has slight compression through the calf and arch. It’s designed that way for 2 reasons. First, when you combine the Cool-Air Venting with better circulation, it helps regulate the temperature of your entire body---not just reduce foot sweat.

But also, better circulation allows for faster recovery throughout the day and overnight. So if you’re used to working tough 14-hour shifts and waking up the next day with sore feet, the Camel City Mill Lightweight will help you recover faster so you feel refreshed in the morning.

4. Backed by a 10-Year Durability Guarantee

Ironside Merino Wool is more durable than regular Merino Wool (I’ll discuss why a little later). Because of this, Camel City Mill is able to confidently offer a 10-year durability guarantee.

That’s right. If the socks tear or get a hole in them within 10 years, ship them back and we’ll replace them -- no charge.

5. 100% USA Made

We’re a proud North Carolina company, and our socks are milled here in NC, the heart of America’s textile industry. We ship out of Winston Salem, NC, and even our sheep are American.

6. Ironside Merino Wool is Built Differently

Our mill is a pretty ancient relic. It was our only option to start, but it actually became our biggest strength. Unlike modern machines that prioritize speed, the loom our wool is milled on weaves the Merino wool fibers in a twisting, circular fashion.

Not to get too technical, but the method in which this fiber is woven makes it much stronger than standard Merino wool. That’s why we can offer a 10-year durability guarantee.

In the GIF above, that's a single thread of Ironside Merino wool lifting a 25lb weight. Crazy, right?

7. Cushion in the Toes and Heel

A lot of tradies wear steel toe boots. The Lightweight is designed with extra padding in the toe and heel so that they’re comfortable all day, even if you’re wearing heavy steel toe boots. If you’ve ever felt that soreness in your big toe after wearing work boots all day, you know what I’m talking about. Yep, we fixed that problem.

The Only Problem is...

We Keep Selling Out

Remember that special loom we use? The one that makes Ironside Merino wool so strong we can offer a 10-year durability guarantee?

Yeah, well, it’s slow. It’s an old machine that’s not optimized for speed like more modern equipment.

Even though we’ve hired a 3rd overnight shift (USA textiles making a comeback, baby), we’re still selling out every month.

Camel City Mill is getting more and more popular, and word of mouth is going faster than we can keep up with.

So if you want to transform your work week like thousands of other tradies, construction workers, police and firemen, loggers, and other blue collar folks who aren’t afraid of the 14-hour shift, get a pair now while we have stock.
