This is Kate Jones, here to talk about a brand of socks with style and function.
 
Recently, I came across Sockwell's Essential Comfort line at Dave’s Boot Shop in Petoskey, Michigan. The key component of these socks is merino wool that comes from free-grazing sheep raised in the U.S. In other words, as the packaging notes, the wool comes from "happy sheep."

I bought a pair of non-cushion socks with an attractive “Big Bloom” flower design, which lives up to the company’s stated intent to bring “fresh modern styling to every sock we make.” The socks are super comfortable too.

Visit sockwellusa.com to find out about all the Sockwell lines and also the company's commitment to wellness, sustainability and ethically raised sheep .

If you’re going to Petoskey and want to check out Dave’s Boot Shop, you can find the address and phone number by visiting the store hours page on the website. Sockwell socks weren't on Dave's site when I visited it, but the store doesn't list its entire inventory online.

This is the third in an occasional series that I call GHR Recommends. It's a service of The Gale Hill Radio Hour. The first episode in the series is Ep 62 about my favorite granola; the second is Ep 69 about a stylish and beautifully made robe.  As always, no payment or goods are exchanged for these recommendations.

This is Kate Jones. Thank you for listening to The Gale Hill Radio Hour!

The show is available in Apple and Google Podcasts, Spotify and other podcast directories. Also on Substack and YouTube; Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn.
