Care and Cleaning

Worrying about damaging wool socks in the wash is a common stress.

Afraid they will shrink or stretch out of shape?

Actually, cleaning is super easy. After reading this, maintaining your wool socks will no longer be a challenge.

【Will they shrink after washing?】
Our wool socks are specially treated for shrink resistance and shape retention before leaving the factory, so they resist deformation after long-term wear and washing.
▶ You can machine wash or soak and hand-wash areas prone to sweat; keep water temperature below 40°C (104°F).
▶ Tumble dry on low heat or air dry in a cool, shaded place. Tip: Turning socks inside out and using a laundry bag helps maintain the fluffiness and cushioning of the inner layer.

【How to choose detergent?】
⚠️ Remember the golden rule: Wool socks contain keratin (the main factor for antibacterial and odor-resistant properties), and acidic or alkaline substances will damage these proteins!
Therefore, we recommend: Using a neutral detergent (choose a gentle detergent with a pH of 7). Avoid using baking soda (weakly alkaline), soap, bleach, detergents containing enzymes, or fabric softeners.

What is CUSHION?

CUSHION consists of TERRY LOOPS knitted into specific parts of the sock. Cushioning increases comfort and warmth while providing extra protection in high-impact areas.

	No Cushion
	High-density underfoot cushion
	Added cushioning in specific spots besides the sole, such as the shin; typically used in ski socks
	Added cushion thickness in the leg portion of the sock, in addition to the sole
	High-density cushioning throughout the entire sock (including the top of the foot)
