What’s in the sock

Bison wool that would otherwise be thrown away

BisonShield™ starts with bison wool intercepted from the waste stream. We blend it with merino so the sock gets bison’s warmth and merino’s softness, and it regulates temperature the way wool does: warm when it’s cold, breathable when it isn’t.

45% recycled polyester, 25% merino wool, 18% nylon, 10% American bison and 2% spandex.

Plush cushion, ribbed arch, reinforced heel and toe

Full cushion for long days on your feet. A ribbed arch holds the sock in place without squeezing. The heel and toe are reinforced where socks give out first.

  • Warm without overheating: bison wool wicks moisture as it insulates
  • Small fits women’s 6–10 and men’s 5–8; Large fits women’s 10–13 and men’s 8–12
  • Three colors: Navy, Natural, Red

Wear them for 30 days. If you don’t love them, send them back.

On the trail, at your desk, inside your boots. If they aren’t the warmest socks you own, you get a full refund or an exchange, even after you’ve worn them.

What people say after a winter in them

4.8 average from 886 reviews on The Ultimate Bison Wool Sock

My feet have always turned numb in the cold. Then I discovered the Ultimate Bison Sock. They are SO warm, and they are comfortable too (no itch). My feet don’t turn numb anymore! I bought SEVEN pairs between this year and last year.
Marian S., Ultimate Bison Sock
I have purchased several pairs of these socks because they are simply put the best socks I have ever owned. I live in Minnesota and the winters get COLD, and these socks are my favorite part of the long winters.
Carter M., Ultimate Bison Sock
These socks are wonderful. I originally bought 3 pairs. I gave one pair to my brother that has poor circulation due to a stroke. He says they are the only sock that keeps his bad foot warm. So this year, I bought him a second pair.
Gina D., Ultimate Bison Sock
Cozy, great fit, warm not stuffy and cool colors. I wore these with birks in the snow and was warm and dry.
Nancy A., Ultimate Bison Sock
The socks are preferred by my husband for all outdoor sports including hunting and ice fishing. They are the only ones he will wear for the cold winter outdoor activities of Wisconsin.
Connie W., Ultimate Bison Sock
They fit just right; not too tight on the top; plenty of room in the toes. It feels like my entire foot is cushioned. I’ll proudly give these socks as gifts to my family and friends.

Questions people ask before they buy

What is BisonShield™ fiber?

BisonShield™ is made from salvaged bison wool that would otherwise go to waste, resulting in a soft, warm fiber.

Will these socks keep my feet warm without overheating?

Yes. Bison wool naturally regulates temperature and wicks moisture, so your feet stay warm but not overheated.

What sizes are available and how do they fit?

Two sizes: Small fits women’s 6–10 and men’s 5–8; Large fits women’s 10–13 and men’s 8–12. They run true to size, and they take up more room in a boot than a thin sock.

Can I return them if I don’t like them after wearing?

Yes. Wear them for up to 30 days and still get a full refund or exchange if you’re not happy.

Are these socks made in the USA?

Yes, they’re knit in the USA.

One pound of trash out of the water, every product.

That’s the deal on everything we make. Buy a pair of socks, and a pound of trash comes out of a river, a beach, or a bay.
