Beloved for its signature CozyChic yarn that delivers unreal softness, Barefoot Dreams socks are a lounging essential. Its Gripper Socks feature a rubber grip-dot sole to help prevent slipping and sliding around the house, while giving cold feet the toasty warmth they crave during the winter months. This is ideal for lounging, since the socks are warm and soft, yet you can easily walk around the house without worrying about slipping (especially if you have hard floors). We love the subtlety of the classic herringbone pattern, and the fact that these trusty lounging socks keep their softness after repeat washes!

The crew length sock stays up (but can be scrunched down if you’re into that sort of thing) and is speckled with different yarns for a subtle contrast reminiscent of a vintage cardigan.
