Hi, I just wanted to thank you so much for making your wonderful socks available. I have muscular dystrophy and I have very poor circulation in my feet therefore they are always cold. Nothing but a hot bath warms them up even in August! A friend of mine told me about your socks a suggested I try them, I have to admit I was very skeptical because I have bought a lot of "warm" socks and nothing has ever worked. I have had cold feet for many, many years and have just learned to accept it as the way I am and carry on but all of that has changed now. I tried your socks and they are amazing, my feet haven't been warm in years, I really didn't think they would work but was I wrong! I love them and so do my feet, that you and your Angora goats! They are the best socks I have ever owned and I don't want to take them off. I can't wait to try your therapeutic socks and your mitts! Karen Larocque - January 22, 2007 I bought these socks last year at the Calgary Art Market and gave them to my Dad, who has extreme problems with cold feet. He wears them to bed and absolutely swears by them. My Mom can hardly get them from him to wash them! When I went online and saw your selection of other socks, I decided to get him the extra heavy socks for work as well. He called me at work to see where I got his socks as his sister, who is 85 and just been hospitalized, is suffering from cold feet and he wanted a pair for her. Thank you for getting them out to me so quickly. Merry Christmas Laura R. Henuset - Calgary, AB - December 11, 2004 Thank you so much for the call this morning. It is so nice to run into someone who actually cares about what they do for a living!! I ran into your company about 5 years ago at the Winnipeg Christmas Craft Show in the convention center, and now have 5 (6) pairs of socks myself, and have supplied friends and family with them too. And your gift boxes are lovely ... I am a diabetic and couldn't sleep at night because my feet were so cold - until I found your therapeutic socks!Thanks Again Pam - Churchill, AB - December 9, 2004 Theresa I am 58 and have spina bifida and also Post Polio. I have suffered with cold feet for years and this winter has been tough. I remembered that a friend gave me a pair of your socks a couple of years ago and I did not know what I had. So about a month ago, while searching in my drawers for warm socks, I pulled out your socks and started to wear them. I have been amazed!! I have had toasty warm feet through all of this cold. I have put them to the test. getting them wet and still they are warm!!! I am a wellness coach and work with people who could benefit from your socks. What would it take for me to become one of your retailers? I have told so many people about your socks and I would like to be able to provide them with socks. Thank you for doing what you do. You have made my life a whole lot more comfortable. Sharon Leach - March 12, 2003 I wanted to share with you an experience I had last Christmas while visiting my family in Manitoba. It was long after we had turned in for the night when I heard something that sounded like bath water running in the main bathroom. I got out of bed to see what it was and found my Grandmother who is 86 years old soaking her feet in the tub. I am a nurse and have worked extensively with the elderly. When I saw her seated on the edge of the tub with her feet in what looked like very hot water I quickly went to check the water temperature, and assist her. She told me her feet were so cold that they are painful. I dried her feet, helped her out of the bathroom and took out the ankle length Thermohair socks I had bought her for Christmas even though it was a few days early. She got back in bed, and I put the socks on her feet and massaged them a little. I checked in on her about a half hour later and she was sound asleep. I just want to thank you for making such a wonderful product, and highly recommend to anyone who suffers from circulatory problems to consider your socks. Judy, Kemptville, ON - February 11, 2002 I am a die-hard customer of your socks. Since childhood, I have never had warm feet due to the fact my feet are always "sweaty", in hot or cold weather conditions. Later in life, I have acquired circulation problems, and with your Thermohair socks, worn both in summer and in winter ( in Manitoba, Canada), my feet do not endure extreme temperature changes, but seem to stay a constant cozy, and warm despite any sweating or lack of extremity circulation. I now give them as gifts to my friends who only have to say, "My feet are always cold", and they own a pair in no time. Thank you for making my feet and life happy, cozy, and warm forever. I only wish your socks could be purchased at a retail outlet in Winnipeg, Manitoba, as I have to wait for the Annual Craft Show to "stock up" and shop for myself and friends. Anita Moyse - December 2001 My father suffers from poor circulation and complains of chronically cold feet. Although he has tried every pair of socks, including battery operated warming socks, to help warm his feet, he has had no success. Last year I purchased a pair of Thermohair Socks for him thinking that even if they didn't keep his feet warm, they were soft and would be comfortable. Much to my amazement, they worked! He says that he has never worn such a comfortable and warm pair of socks in his life. Now, however, my mother is the one complaining. He refuses to take them off, even to wash them! She has to wait until he's sleeping to remove them. Apparently this has caused a bit of dissention in the house. I'm very grateful that I found you at the craft sale this year. I've purchased another couple of pairs for him in the hopes that he'll be less reluctant to remove them to wash them. Hopefully now, peace will reign in their household once more. Dad will have several pairs of clean socks to wear and Mom won't have to hold her nose any longer. I plan on keeping your brochure handy. If one of the pairs get destroyed (and I sincerely hope that this won't happen), then I will have a way of replacing them ... quickly. I thank you for these socks ... as well as do my parents. They are a great product. Sharon Leblanc, Sudbury ON - November 2001 I am a curler, Secretary of a Curling Club, and I also write a newspaper column on the sport. Mohair socks are my secret weapon! I have problems with one of my feet, ever since a motorcycle accident in my high school days. I don't have complete movement of my foot, and as a result, it freezes. I use the very finest curling shoes, with fleece lining, and have tried all kinds of insoles, and socks. But last year I bought some Mohair socks and Wow ! They keep my foot warm Brent Harrison - August 2000 I can't begin to tell you how good your wonderful socks feel - I had foot surgery a couple years ago. The mohair socks in my Birkenstocks are so very comfortable I can stand and walk in perfect comfort Doris Eakon, New Minas NS - February 2000 My mother gave me a pair of thermohair socks for Christmas and I wore them for the first time last night on my daughter's birthday party sleigh ride in -25C Winnipeg weather-I put them to the test! I have suffered from Raynauld's disease for many, many years - I am a healthy 38 year old woman who has never smoked, exercises rigorously and often, and feels excellent except that my hands and feet during the winter months especially turn "chalk white" and generally freeze within minutes .............. Last night on the sleigh ride, I was definitely the warmest person on the ride including my feet! It was only at the end that my feet started to feel cold. I could have sold dozens of your socks to the others on the ride! Gaelyn McGregor - January 2000 My father has tried the Thermohair socks, and is very impressed. He says they are very warm, and he has very bad leg circulation. Pauline Stanley, Markham ON - January 2000 I have nerve damage in my feet caused by chemo treatment for cancer, but your socks make my feet feel great - especially on long steep, 10 mile hikes & on bike trips David Jackson, Sedona, AZ - June 1999 Dear Dr. Davies I am enclosing some information on some unusual and extraordinarily warm and comfortable socks made using the mohair fibres from Angora goats. Knowing your interest in research I felt you might find this interesting, particularly from a therapeutic point of view. During my check-up with you on Dec 16, 1994, I explained that my feet were always cold and that I was experiencing more frequent and greater swelling of my ankles, particularly my left foot. On examining me you confirmed that the circulation in my left foot was not as good as to my right foot. Your advice was to keep my feet as warm as possible. I have many kinds of socks made with all wool or in combination with other materials but the only way I have been able to keep my feet warm is directly from a heater or while in bed. On January 14th, my sister gave me a pair of these Thermohair socks for my birthday. I have been wearing them ever since and they are absolutely amazing. They are extremely comfortable, non-binding, even after repeated washings, and my feet are always warm ... Letter to Dr Richard Davies, University of Ottawa Heart Institute from Bill Spurrell, Ottawa ON - February 1995
