$30.00
What is a Health Sock®? … In 1947, Sidney Humphrey & Albert Law formed a partnership to make great socks at a great value in Australia. And that is exactly what Humphrey Law has done, and done exclusively, for more than 75 years. Along the way, they perfected a proprietary graduated knitting process for crafting soft, smooth, moisture wicking, temperature regulating, Aus-somely comfortable, Merino Wool socks, with no tight tops, to promote better circulation.
Socks that stay up right, without wearing too tight … That is a Health Sock® … and they only come from Humphrey Law, the sock specialist.
Who Knew Your Socks Can Ease Pain and Fatigue? … Do your feet get tired and sore? Are your feet and legs sensitive? Do your feet and legs get swollen, leaving rings and ridges where your socks wear? Or worse, do you live with the pain which accompanies more serious nerve sensitivity or circulatory problems? Do you look forward to that moment of “Ahhhhh” when you get to peel your socks off at the end of the day?
All are symptoms of wearing socks which use large amounts of poly fibers and elastic to squeeze your feet and legs in an effort to stay up. Restricting your body’s natural circulation. Wearing “no worries” Humphrey Law Health Socks eliminates the pressure, eases the pain, and fends off fatigue, while promoting healthy circulation and greater comfort.
Who Knew Merino Wool Can Keep You Warm and Cool? … Do your feet get Hot? Or Cold? How Hot or Cold you feel is largely determined by the moisture on your feet. Merino Wool is the master of moisture (and odor). Your Health Socks keep as much soft, natural fiber next to your body as possible, wicking moisture away, to keep your feet dryer and at a steady, comfortable temperature.
Socks Made for a Purpose. … Every pair of Humphrey Law socks is made for a purpose (Dress, Casual, Work, Sport, Specialty, for Warmth or Cool). Using the maximum amount of the finest Australian Merino Wool, and the minimum amount of petroleum-based poly fibers necessary to fit the purpose, each sock is expertly knit, linked, dyed, pre-shrunk and inspected to fit their purpose, and fit your feet for maximum comfort and wear life.
What Makes This Sock Special? This premium heavy-knit wool sock is made from 90% Australian Fine Merino Wool. Humphrey Law Fine Merino Wool is selected Fine Australian fleece with a comfort factor exceeding 98%, so it will not prickle or itch. This luxuriously soft sock has a wool terry sole for warmth, softness, and comfort. This sock is specially knit to create more warmth capturing air pockets, while still hugging your foot, ankle & calf. The wool provides moisture wicking for dry warmth and odor control.
- More Merino means more air pockets to capture and retain your body heat. Starting with 90% Fine Merino means your sock is almost entirely knit from Mother Nature’s premium insulation.
- Keeping your feet dry is the second key to keeping you and your feet warm. More Merino means more moisture wicking, keeping your feet dry and warm.
- The loose knit and the cushioned sole are like giving each of your feet a custom comforter. Your feet will stay so cozy you’ll look forward to those chilly Winter days.

Excellence from Farm to Feet … Since its founding in 1947, Family-owned Humphrey Law® has done one thing, and one thing alone: make great socks, at a great value, that keep you and your feet feeling great. Humphrey Law still operates in the same factory where it all began more than 75 years ago. In the beginning, the sheep were in the pastures behind the factory. As Melbourne (Australia) and the factory grew, the flocks were moved to New South Wales, and still serve as a source for the pure Australian Merino Wool from which these amazing socks are made.
Natural, Renewable, Sustainable … The primary fibers from which your Humphrey Law socks are made are natural, renewable, and sustainable materials (Australian Merino Wool, Alpaca, Cotton, Bamboo). Humphrey Law typically uses more natural fibers in making your socks than other manufacturers, and less petroleum-based poly fibers. The Humphrey Law Family genuinely cares about your feet, and the Earth upon which they tread. Long before it became fashionable, Humphrey Law began investing in innovative technologies and processes to conserve natural resources and energy, while reducing waste … and responsibly make great socks at a great value.
Every Other Sock is Solar Powered … Most recently, under the Leadership of Rob Law and Elizabeth (Law) Challenger, Humphrey Law has installed solar panels entirely covering the roof of the factory. Today, they generate 50% of all the electricity they use. Yes, you can proudly proclaim that your Left foot (or Right) is solar powered.
Ethical Clothing Australia … Humphrey Law’s commitment to the environment does not stop at the front door. The Leadership is equally committed to their people and work environment. A commitment which has earned them full accreditation from Ethical Clothing Australia. The Phillips Family of Cape Woolamai Mercantile has had the pleasure of touring the Humphrey Law Factory and meeting the Team on several occasions. On of the reasons Humphrey Law socks are so great is that they are a reflection of the people who make them. We are proud to represent both.
Helping Solve 10 Top Foot and Fashion Problems … Humphrey Law does more than make great socks. Humphrey Law makes great socks to address the specific needs of your feet. One of our most popular Mens socks, this 95% Merino Ribbed Health Sock addresses these 10 top foot and fashion problems in the following manner:
- Cold Feet – By placing the maximum amount of soft Merino Wool next to your body, this sock wicks away more moisture, faster. Keeping your feet dryer and comfortably warm all day. By adding more Merino, and knitting it to allow for the most heat holding air pockets, this sock helps you stay warmer. As a Health Sock with no tight tops to restrict circulation, you will enjoy optimum blood flow to your feet, promoting natural warmth.
- Fashionable Feet – What does “Warm” look like? It looks a lot like this lusciously knit Fine Merino Health Sock. Knit to be a little fluffy, with alternating wide & narrow ribs giving the sock a quilted feel, this Winter Health Sock is the picture of warmth and comfort.
- Healthy Feet – The socks with no tight tops, Humphrey Law Health Socks promote better natural circulation, while providing all the other benefits of the natural fibers from which they are knit. Doctors in Australia are known to recommend their patients living with Diabetes and other circulatory issues wear Humphrey Law Health Socks.
- Hot Feet –The same high proportion of moisture wicking Merino Wool which helps keep cold feet warm, helps to keep warm feet from overheating. Created to help your feet more comfortably survive the Winter cold, this Fine Merino Health Sock will help keep your feet properly warm by venting off excess heat. Nothing breathes like Merino!
- Sore Feet – A true “cushion sole” sock, the terry sole is like wrapping your feet in little pillows to cushion each step you take. By terrying the sole, Humphrey Law also puts more Fine Merino in contact with your feet, to wick away more moisture faster, to keep your feet comfortably warm.
- Sensitive Feet & Legs – Humphrey Law Socks are knit from the finest natural fibers you can knit into an effective sock. The Fine Merino fiber from which this Health Sock is crafted, is about the finest fiber you can knit into a wearable sock. Silky soft, with all the moisture wicking and insulating attributes of Merino Wool, and double-side finished so there are no loose threads to irritate your legs or snag on toes, makes this a great sock for people with sensitive feet and legs.
- Smelly Feet – Merino wool is naturally odor resistant. Merino’s anti-microbial attributes also help fight the foot fungus we don’t speak about in polite conversation, but which grows, spreads, itches, and burns, when given a warm, humid environment within which to grow. Walk, work, sweat, and take your shoes off with confidence and comfort at the end of the day.
- Sporting Feet – Not a pure sport sock, this sock can be very comfortable for enjoying the many great Cold Day casual activities (Tailgating, Leaf Peeping, Holiday Shopping, etc.).
- Working Feet – Not made with work boots in mind, this sock is extremely comfortable for people who make their living on their feet in cold environments (Hospitality Workers, Cold Room Environments, Outdoor Entertainment Workers, etc.).
- Large Feet – Humphrey Law understands that just because your shoe size is 12+ doesn’t mean you don’t want comfort with a sense of style. For sizes up to Mens 14, this sock has your feet covered too.
