FAQs

Are these socks suitable for extreme cold?

Yes, the waterproof and breathable nature of the Raynham sock makes them suitable for cold environments, helping to keep feet dry and warm. For very extreme cold, consider pairing with appropriate insulation.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the sizing guide provided by Sealskinz. Wearing the correct size is crucial for both comfort and the proper functioning of the waterproof membrane.

Can I wear these with any shoes?

Yes, the Raynham socks are designed to be worn with a wide variety of footwear, from hiking boots to trainers.

How long do the waterproof properties last?

With proper care and no physical damage to the membrane, the waterproof properties are designed to last for the expected lifespan of the sock.

Can I use fabric softener when washing?

No, fabric softeners should be avoided as they can clog the pores of the waterproof and breathable membrane, reducing its effectiveness.

Are these socks itchy?

The Raynham sock construction aims for comfort. While some users may find any sock with a membrane slightly different from a standard sock, they are designed to be worn comfortably for extended periods. Versions with Merino Wool are available for enhanced softness.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel wet inside.

Ensure socks are correctly washed and dried according to care instructions. Check for any damage to the waterproof membrane. Make sure you are not experiencing excessive sweating, which can overwhelm even breathable materials.

Reduced breathability.

Wash the socks with a liquid detergent to clear any residue that might be blocking the pores of the membrane. Avoid fabric softeners and harsh detergents.

Water ingress.

Inspect the socks for any tears or holes. If damage is found, the waterproof integrity may be compromised. Ensure the sock cuff is properly sealed and not submerged for extended periods.
