What Is Lamb's Wool?

Lamb’s wool is a soft and smooth natural material that can be used to cushion and protect sensitive areas of the feet. Lamb's wool is commonly used to help with issues such as blisters, corns, fractures, and shoe pressure.

Uses

  • Cushioning: Lamb's wool provides a soft layer of protection between toes or around pressure points, reducing friction that can cause blisters, corns, or calluses.
  • Toe Separators: Lamb’s wool can be wrapped around or between toes to separate them, preventing rubbing and reducing irritation. This is particularly helpful for conditions like hammer toes or bunions.
  • Moisture Absorption: The natural fibers of lamb’s wool wick away moisture, keeping feet dry and preventing conditions like athlete’s foot or skin breakdown.
  • Warmth and Insulation: It helps keep feet warm by providing a layer of insulation, making it ideal for people with poor circulation or conditions that cause cold feet.
