Description

Introducing Thistle — a rich and bold purple, a striking new colour for this season in The Harris Extra Long Leg range. Expertly knitted in the United Kingdom with a premium Merino wool and acrylic blend reinforced with nylon, this sock delivers exceptional comfort and durability. Keeping true to the exclusive design, it extends the conventional length by 3" to banish the “mind the gap” dilemma for our taller customers and features a ribbed leg crafted for wider calves alongside a classic cable knit turnover. The optional lilac and thistle two-tone garter adds a refined finishing touch with complementary hues for a sophisticated country look. Step confidently into the season with The Harris Extra Long Leg in Thistle — bold, timeless, and unmistakably elegant.

Care Guidelines

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
