Humphrey Law

In 1947, Sidney Humphrey and Albert Law built the original Humphrey Law factory on what used to be a lemon orchard in Heathmont, Victoria.

From the very beginning, the company focused on making quality socks from the finest natural yarns available. Humphrey Law continues under the management of Albert Law’s son Rob and senior staff to ensure continuation of 100% Australian Manufacturing.

The company continues to innovate its manufacturing practices and designs – using alpaca yarn and locally sourced merino wool - to create a wide range of comfy, functional socks.

“We make our socks locally with a lot of natural fibres – because that’s the best way to make socks.”

Starting in a wool shed in Western Queensland in the 1990s, Merino Country has become a leading manufacturer of Merino wool clothing and underwear.

Founder Kerrie Richards and her husband Malcolm are passionate about sharing the many benefits of merino wool, and work closely with their local woolgrowers, processers and manufacturers to create their colourful clothing pieces.

“We made the decision to stay local, and Australia grows the best merino wool in the world. So why wouldn’t we use the best product that's in our backyard?”
