Care and Cleaning

Damaging wool socks while washing is a total downer.

Worried about shrinkage? Afraid they'll lose shape or unravel?

Actually, cleaning is super easy. Follow this guide, and caring for wool socks will be a breeze.

【Will they shrink after washing?】
Our wool socks undergo special anti-shrinkage treatment during production, making them resistant to deformation after extended wear and washing.
▶ Machine wash or hand wash by gently rubbing sweat-prone areas in water below 40°C.
▶ Tumble dry low or air dry in a cool, shaded place. Pro-tip: Turning socks inside out and using a laundry bag helps maintain the fluffiness and cushioning effect of the inner fibers.

【How to choose detergent?】
⚠️ The golden rule: Wool socks contain keratin (the primary factor for anti-bacterial and anti-odor properties), and acidic or alkaline substances can break down this protein!
Therefore, we recommend: Use a neutral detergent (pH 7). Do not use baking soda (mildly alkaline), soap, products containing bleach or enzymes, or fabric softeners.

	No Cushion
	High-density cushion underfoot
	Added cushioning in specific areas besides the sole, such as the shin; usually found in ski socks
	Added cushioning along the leg/height of the sock, in addition to the sole
	High-density cushioning throughout the entire sock (including the top of the foot)
