Description
I designed The Ashton in Rioja to embody a rich, deep burgundy tone complemented by sophisticated accents of purple and green, perfect for those who enjoy bold colours and want their socks to make a statement.
The Ashton shooting sock is one of our exclusive designs—ideal for individuals who appreciate vibrant, expressive knitwear. This striking sock remains a best-seller in our collection, season after season. What makes The Ashton truly unique is its use of eight different colours in the turnover—the maximum number possible—resulting in a design that is both bold and visually captivating.
The Rioja base delivers a luxurious deep burgundy foundation, accented by a palette of Violet, Airforce Blue, Orchid, Grey Tweed, Crushed Raspberry, Lichen, and Lilac. These carefully chosen hues blend beautifully to offer a sock that pairs effortlessly with classic country attire and tweeds alike.
Made from a durable Merino wool blend, The Ashton Rioja feels incredibly soft and comfortable while offering long-lasting performance. It is also machine washable, making it practical as well as stylish. Proudly crafted in the UK, this sock is a signature piece from The Shooting Sock Company.
To maintain exclusivity and freshness, each colourway undergoes a limited production run of approximately two years before retirement. The tri-colour garter—featuring Lichen, Rioja, and Orchid—offers an elegant finishing detail that ties the design together. The Ashton in Rioja is more than just a sock—it’s a statement of timeless style, quality workmanship, and bold individuality.
Our socks are knitted from a variety of yarns, all of which are selected for their performance.
A Merino wool and acrylic blend is an ideal yarn choice for shooting socks, combining the best of both fibres. Merino wool offers excellent warmth, breathability, and natural moisture-wicking properties, keeping feet dry and comfortable during long days. The addition of acrylic enhances durability and elasticity, helping the socks maintain their shape and resist wear over time. Using Italian spun premium yarn ensures a soft, high-quality finish with consistent strength, making these socks both luxurious and long-lasting for all your adventures in the field.
