Family hosiery from Schmallenberg: sports socks, knitwear and base layers

Fourth-generation Sauerland sock makers who still knit most of the range in their own plants, with Schmallenberg as HQ since 1920. Running, trekking, ski and cycling socks sit beside fashion hosiery; the South African plant is a subsidiary, not a separate brand.
