Collection: Factory Seconds
Occasionally we don't Get it 100% right.. but rather than send a perfectly good pair of socks to landfill, we sell them here at a discounted price!
When do we deem a sock as 'seconds'?
- Colour isn't right
- Brand name is in the wrong position / size
- we weren't happy with the sock height
Is the quality compromised?
- No, all of our 'seconds' socks are still extremely high quality and Australian made.. They are finished to the same standard as our regular socks, they just have one of the minor imperfections listed above.
Please be aware, that our 'seconds' socks aren't covered under warranty, and they don't come in branded packaging.

Easy to deal with, great turn around time.
Very comfortable, nice length and survive the wash. Would buy again.
Awesome quality, so comfortable, love Aussie made, Aussie products keep up Aussie made 👍
Great customer service and Postal Delivery was on time. Will deal with Only Socks again as item stood the hard test not only at work but also on the Fireground.
Even though I’m a Truck Driver I’m also a Volunteer Firefighter. Yesterday these socks were put through the test and came out shining. A hard day on the Fireground and the socks were comfortable and cool to the point I didn’t know I had them on. Will be buying some more soon to replace my synthetic socks of a known Brand. Also where possible I try to support Aussie businesses that sell Aussie produced items which are harder to find these days. Keep up the great work Only Socks.
THE PIONEER - FULLY CUSHIONED MERINO WORK SOCK
The socks are very comfortable when I am wearing my work boots. When I wear my work boots, I generally wear out the toes on my socks, but these socks I haven’t worn out the toes. The socks are harder wearing than my normal explorers I wear.
FAQs
What are the benefits of Merino wool socks?
Merino wool socks offer natural temperature regulation, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties. They keep your feet dry, warm in winter, and cool in summer—making them ideal for hiking, work, or everyday wear.
Are your Merino wool socks made in Australia?
Yes, all our Merino wool socks are proudly Australian made using 100% locally sourced Merino wool. We support Australian farmers and manufacturers to ensure high-quality, ethical production.
Are Merino wool socks good for hiking?
Absolutely. Merino hiking socks are a top choice for hikers due to their ability to reduce blisters, manage moisture, and stay comfortable on long treks. They're also naturally odor-resistant.
Can I wear Merino wool socks for work?
Yes. Merino wool work socks provide all-day comfort, especially for tradies, farmers, and anyone on their feet. They're durable, cushioned, and breathable—perfect for tough conditions.
Are Merino wool socks itchy?
Unlike traditional wool, Merino wool is ultra-fine and soft against the skin. Our socks are designed to be itch-free and comfortable for all-day wear.
How do I care for Merino wool socks?
To keep your Merino socks in top condition, wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle and air dry. Avoid hot water or tumble drying to preserve the natural fibres.
