Description

Introducing an exciting addition to The Shooting Sock Company’s collection — The Chessboard Shooting Sock in the exclusive Forest & Bronze. Designed and crafted in Scotland, this stunning new colourway features a rich marled yarn blend that beautifully combines earthy forest green with warm bronze tones, creating a unique two-tone chequerboard pattern that blends beautifully on the moors.

While embracing the same clean, angular design that has been a hallmark of the Chessboard sock for over 20 years, this fresh colour combination offers a rugged yet refined look. The Merino & Acrylic blend yarn ensures exceptional comfort, warmth, and durability in any terrain.

Enhance your shooting attire with the optional matching two-tone garter tie in bronze and forest, striking the perfect balance between style and function.

Delivery & Returns

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.

Sock Composition: 85% Merino Wool Acrylic Blend (50%/50%), 10% Nylon, 5% Lycra
