The plus12 has been manufactured in Germany since 2005. <\/span>and that the plus12 measuring gauge<\/strong> <\/span>We\u2019re glad to know that our product is made close to home \u2013 almost right on our doorstep \u2013 instead of thousands of kilometers away. <\/span>The same goes for the plus12socks<\/strong>. <\/span>Back in 2019, we completed the development and planning process, hired a knitting technician, and bought a knitting machine.<\/strong> <\/span>es, it was a risk, but since then we are even happier to know that our plus12socks here are knitted right here in Austria (Vorarlberg) <\/span>and that the plus12 measuring gauge<\/strong> <\/span>is produced in Germany.<\/p>\nIf you\u2019re wondering why we only have 2 prices on the plus12socks for the time being, it\u2019s quite simple: We like to keep things uncomplicated, and more importantly, we want our children\u2019s socks \u2013 even if they are made in Austria \u2013 to be affordable for as many parents as possible. And we will stand by that principle as long as we possibly can. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

That\u2019s actually really unhealthy for feet, especially growing ones: The toes get squeezed together and can even retain this unnatural position permanently.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

But the solution seems simple: Why not just make socks that are the same shape as feet?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

So we did: Straight at the big toe, in line with your feet, and with plenty of wiggle room for the rest of your toes, too. That\u2019s the idea behind plus12socks. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
