Product Insights
Simons Work Socks are a Canadian-made, 40% wool blend mid-layer sock designed for sub-zero warmth, moisture wicking, and durability in work boots, with a stay-up fit and softness after one wash. However, some long-time buyers note a decline in quality and a near-doubling in price, creating a tradeoff between recent positive reviews and a perceived reduction in value.
Verified claims
- Stay-up
- Ribbed cuff and 1% spandex keep socks from slouching inside boots.
- Insulation
- The 40% wool and 5% acrylic blend retains loft and warmth when damp and is suited to sub-zero work-boot wear.
- Breathability
- The cotton and wool blend breathes and absorbs moisture, and buyers note the socks soften with washing rather than staying scratchy.
- Value
- At 40% wool, these socks use more natural fiber than the Kodiak Merino Wool Work Socks (23% merino) and the Perris Women's Wool Work Sock (27% wool), at a similar or lower price.
- Softening
- Buyers describe the socks as a bit scratchy or stiff at first, but they soften with each wash and become more comfortable.
- Care
- 34% nylon and reinforced heel/toe resist abrasion inside work boots.
- Shape retention
- 1% spandex and elastic edging provide a stay-up fit that resists slouching through repeated wear inside boots.
- Quality shift
- Some long-time buyers say the materials were changed to lower quality and the price has risen from $12.99 to $19.99, reducing perceived value.
- Origin
- Designed and knit entirely in Canada, a rare supply-chain advantage.
- Performance
- The blend of 40% wool, 34% nylon, 20% cotton, 5% acrylic, 1% spandex provides warmth, durability, comfort, fit, and breathability.
- Consumer loyalty
- Buyers report annual repurchasing and gifting of these socks.
- Glitter thread
- Subtle glitter thread runs along the black stripe.
- Visual design
- The socks come in colors like teal and lavender, and the design pairs a red-striped ribbed cuff with contrast heel and toe reinforcements.
- Purchase format
- Single-pair format in curated colorways makes it a popular gift choice.
- Warmth
- Mid-level warmth: warmer than cotton, less than 80% wool socks, boosted by acrylic loft.
- Boot compatibility
- Buyers pair these with winter work boots, shorter boots, and hiking.
- Quality consistency
- While some long-time buyers report lower material quality and a higher price, many reviewers describe the socks as durable, warm, and comfortable.
- Moisture management
- The 40% wool and 20% cotton provide more breathability and moisture management than acrylic-dominant work socks.
- Wool type
- The wool content is not specified as merino; the blend simply lists 'wool' at 40%.
- Cushioning
- The socks are not described as having any added cushioning or padding in the sole; buyers who need extra underfoot support may want to add insoles.
- Care instructions
- The socks are machine washable, but care guidance says not to tumble dry, bleach, or iron; wring out and hang dry instead.

Wearing with winter work boots
These thick wool-blend socks are a fit for cold workdays in winter boots, with steady warmth that holds up in freezing temperatures. According to an analysis of customer reviews, the stay-up fit helps keep them from bunching inside boots.[1]
Cool-weather hiking
According to customer reviews, these socks are a pick for cool-weather hikes: the natural wool wicks moisture and cushions feet on long trails. Reviewers' original comments were summarized in an analysis, so this reflects their reported experience rather than a guaranteed result.[1]
A cozy holiday gift staple
Per a review analysis, these socks are a recurring request for Christmas and family gifts, credited to their cozy quality and elegant packaging-ready look. Details like a subtle glitter thread and unexpected colors such as teal or lavender add warmth with a bit of personality.[1]
Keeping feet warm while lounging on cold floors
Cozy indoor socks for lounging around the house when floors feel cold, with a toasty, warm feel reported by customers. Note that the wool may feel scratchy against bare skin at first, softening after a few washes.[1]
Warm socks for cold workdays in winter boots
For cold workdays or time outdoors in winter boots, reviewers describe these wool-blend work socks as providing steady warmth without overheating, with a stay-up fit that doesn't slouch through all-day wear. They hold up to repeated machine washes and reportedly get softer and comfier after laundering, though some found the wool a bit scratchy on first wear. Per the review analysis, they run slightly small at first and stretch with wear, so those between sizes might want to order up.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Work Socks: Choose this if you want thick, warm socks for winter boots or cold-weather wear — reviews describe the wool blend as insulating in freezing temperatures with a stay-up fit that resists bunching, and they hold up to repeated machine washes. Note that the wool can feel scratchy at first and reviewers say a wash or two softens them considerably; they may also run snug initially, so sizing up is suggested if you are between sizes. This one-size variant comes in Patterned Red.[1] | 1840 Wool Socks Our History, Our Heritage Collection Unisex: Choose this if you want thick, warm wool socks for cozy at-home wear in cold months: aggregated customer reviews describe the soft wool blend as comfortable and non-irritating even for people sensitive to wool, and the heritage-inspired design with an embroidered leaf makes them a reported crowd-pleasing gift. They are a Simons exclusive designed in Canada with a made-in-Portugal label, made of 63% wool with polyamide and elastane, and offered in Patterned Grey and Patterned Green in Small/Medium (women's 6-9, men's 5-8) or Large/Extra-Large (women's 10-13, men's 9-12). One caveat from aggregated reviews: the patterned pairs are constructed significantly smaller than solid gray and run tight across the instep, making them nearly impossible to pull on — and risking tearing — for foot sizes men's 10.5 and up.[2,3,4] | Heathered Wool Ped Socks Made In Portugal: Choose these low-cut wool-blend ped socks if you want warm, breathable everyday wear in closed shoes or boots, with built-in arch support, an elastic ribbed cuff, and a soft 62% wool knit that reviewers say holds up through repeated washes. Be aware the one-size design runs large out of the package—most owners report it predictably shrinks to a stay-put fit after a wash or dryer cycle, but some wearers with narrow or smaller feet report persistent bunching and poor stay-up.[5,6] |

A SOLID sock. More colours and lower the price please!
I have bought these socks for MANY years and worn them A LOT! Yes the quality has changed ( the materials were changed slightly to a lower quality) and the price has shot up from $12. 99. Womens socks don't use as much material as mens- no reason for these to be $19. 99 whatsoever! Please bring back the green and light purple options and lower the price so more women can afford this great warm sock. ( and lose glittery thread please) Many women for work, outdoors, warmth can benefit from this great Simon's product- please don't discontinue it!!
