Care & Cleaning

Damaging your wool socks in the wash can be disheartening.

Worried about shrinking? Afraid they'll lose their shape or fray?

Actually, cleaning is super easy. Once you've read this, caring for your wool socks will never be a challenge.

【Will they shrink?】
Our wool socks undergo special anti-shrink treatment during production, making them resistant to deformation after long-term wear and washing.
▶ Machine wash or hand wash after soaking sweat-prone areas; water temperature should not exceed 40°C.
▶ Tumble dry low or air dry in a cool, shaded area. Pro-tip: Wash inside out in a laundry bag to better maintain the loft and shock absorption of the internal Cushioning.

【How to choose detergent?】
⚠️ The golden rule: Wool socks contain keratin (the key factor for antibacterial and odor-resistant properties), and acidic or alkaline substances will break down these proteins!
Therefore, we recommend: Using a neutral detergent (pH 7). Do not use baking soda (mildly alkaline), soap, bleach, detergents containing enzymes, or fabric softeners.

What is CUSHION?

CUSHION consists of terry loops knitted into specific areas of the sock. Cushioning increases comfort and warmth while providing extra protection in high-impact zones.

	No Cushion
	High-density cushioning under the foot
	Extra padding in specific zones like the shin (commonly found in ski socks)
	Cushioning on the foot and up the leg
	High-density cushion throughout the entire sock (including the top of the foot)
