Composition
The most luxurious socks in the world, cashmere is softer and approximately three times warmer than sheep's wool.
Our leisure weight cashmere yarn is woollen spun using the finest grade of cashmere knitted with nylon to give extra durability and stretch. An affordable taste of luxury.
It takes approximately 6 goats to produce enough fibre to make one dozen pairs of Pantherella short cashmere socks.
The Cashmere Pantherella use has a count of 3/80 NM - this number translates as the number of ends (ply) by length in metres per 1 gram of mass (3 ply x 80 metres).
Pantherella's lesiure-weight knit Cashmere socks are knitted on a 96-needle machine.
Wear around the home with soft shoes or slippers, for total indulgence, and like fine wine, cashmere will improve with age if cared for properly.
What is Cashmere?
Cashmere is one of the finest natural fibres in the world and is obtained from the hair of Cashmere goats whose coat is made up of two distinct layers. The outer layer (guard hair) and the undercoat (cashmere). The guard hair is coarse and waterproof, which serves to protect the goat (and the undercoat). The undercoat is ultrafine, soft and an excellent insulator, to protect the goat from the extreme cold.Only the soft, ultrafine undercoat is used to produce cashmere. In spring, as the goats moult for summer, they are combed by hand to remove their ultrafine undercoat, while leaving the guard hair intact.
These combings are then washed and sorted to remove any stray guard hairs. What is left is pure cashmere. This laborious process results in a fibre that is exceptionally exquisite and rare. It therefore it commands a higher price than more easily obtained fibres.

This sizing guide aims to provide you with as much information as possible to ensure the best fit for you. We have provided internal length measurements in the table below for every last shape so that you can make an informed choice.
Steps to getting the best fit
- Measure your own feet in centimetres. The simplest way to do this is to draw around your feet on a plain piece of paper, keeping your pen vertical at all times. Then take a measurement from the heel to the tip of the longest toe.
- Round up the measurement to the nearest 0.5cm and then add 1cm extra to this measurement (if you have slim or regular width feet), or add 1.5cm to this measurement (if you have wider feet).
- Look for the required brand and last on the table below and read downwards to find the size closest to your required measurement.
(Example 1: You measure your feet and your longest foot is 27.9cm. Round this up to 28cm. Now add 1cm at least to this (29cm). You're interested in the 915 Berwick last, so read down this column until you get 29cm. This would mean you'd need a size 9 UK in this last.)
(Example 2: You measure your feet and your longest foot is 31.3cm. Round this up to 31.5cm. Now add 1cm at least to this (32.5cm). You're interested in the 4444 Trickers last, so read down this column until you get 32.5cm. This would mean you'd need a size 12 UK in this last.)
Please note: these are only recommended length guides based on an average foot and will not give you an indication of width, depth or feel when the footwear is on the foot. We provide these measurements as an approximation of fit, but we make no guarantee that choosing a size based on this advise will be accurate.
If you have a low or high volume foot you may need to adjust the required size up or down accordingly.
Please be advised that we accept no liability for returns, should you disagree with any sizing assistance we have provided.
All measurements are shown in centimetres (cm)
If you still require sizing assistance after reading these charts, please do email us at info@afinepairofshoes.co.uk.
International Sizing Conversion Chart
The conversion from American to UK and European sizes can be complicated because of rounding differences. Shoe models and manufacturers often have size differences. A UK 10 in one model may be a size US 10.5 or US 11 depending on the model or manufacturer. For this reason, the table below serves only as a rough guide and may simplify your search.
