All Australian-made Goomo socks are made from superfine Australian merino:
Terry hand-dyed socks: 87% superfine Australian merino, 13% Nylon
Terry Check socks: 87% superfine Australian merino, 13% nylon/elastane
Patterned socks: 70% superfine Australian merino, 30% nylon/elastane
These combinations are the perfect blend of warmth and durability. Socks need nylon/elastane, this is what gives them the strength for long wearability; it makes them stay up and adds a soft stretch for comfort.
All our sock designs feature a comfort top! This means that they are not restrictive on your legs and aid good circulation, and they have the perfect amount of bounce to ensure they stay up.
Rest assured, we’re here to assist you! Our sock sizes are simple to navigate. For adults, we offer two sizes: small (2-8) and large (8-11). European sizes correspond, with 35-39 falling under small and 40-44 falling under large.
When it comes to baby and child sizes, we’ve organized them by age groups, such as Newborn to 3 months. It’s a straightforward process – no need to worry!

Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to avoid pilling completely with any Merino products. Pills are caused by the friction of rubbing against another fabric or surface. Pilling depends on several factors, including the action of the wearer; there is a greater chance of pilling if the wearer is more active, the item is not worn as intended, or the fabric is rubbed against another surface. Pilling tends to concentrate on certain areas of an item that receives more friction. Here’s what Woolmark Company have to say, the global authority on wool.
Pilling is a natural process and is not an indicator of poor quality, nor a reason to discard or return an item. Pilling will happen less and less over time, as the loose fibres make their way to the surface. So, remove pills as soon as you notice them:
Caring for any merino item to prevent pilling:
Turn inside out, place in washing bag, cool gentle machine wash on wool setting with pure wool detergent. Dry in shade. Do not iron, bleach, wring, soak, tumble or dry clean.
Please see each individual item listing for specific care instructions appropriate to that item.
Yes, the care instructions are on each garment. Our merino may be machine washed on a gentle wool setting, cool temperature with pure soap. Place garments inside out in a lingerie bag first.
