Thank you for posting!

I only have two pairs of socks from Devold, but they are amazing quality socks. As someone who gets at least one pair of woollen socks for Christmas every year for several decades now, I have a pretty solid basis for assessing the quality of these products.

The Devold ones are among the best I've ever had without a doubt. :)

Devold is great! I have lots of stuff from them, my favorite are merino wool pants.

They don't ship outside of Scandinavia, unfortunately

I could select countries outside of Scandinavia on all but Janus. Does the checkout not go through if you select anywhere else?

I tried the Devold link, as that was being discussed (and had the socks I was interested in). But it told me no shipping outside of no/swe/fin/den

Aw, that sucks. I see when "international" is selected, it tells you to select other market.
