FAQs
Are these socks itchy?
No. The interior layer is made of soft cotton, ensuring that the merino wool does not directly touch your skin.
Can I put these in the tumble dryer?
No, tumble drying will cause the merino wool fibers to shrink and the elastic to degrade. Always air dry flat.
Do these socks really prevent odors?
Yes, merino wool is naturally odor-inhibiting and moisture-regulating, which helps keep your feet feeling fresher for longer periods.
Are these suitable for winter?
They provide excellent temperature regulation. They are ideal for general cold weather and office environments, though they are thin and not intended for heavy-duty Arctic conditions.
What should I do if the socks slide down?
Ensure you are using the correct size for your foot. The specialized knitting technique is designed to hold the sock in place, but using fabric softener can sometimes make them slippery.
Can these be hand-washed?
Yes, hand-washing in cool water with wool-safe detergent is the gentlest way to clean them and will extend their lifespan.
Troubleshooting
Socks feel slightly loose after multiple wears
Wash the socks according to instructions; the natural fibers typically regain their original shape and elasticity after a gentle wash and proper drying.
Small snags appearing in the fabric
Avoid contact with rough surfaces or sharp objects inside footwear. Ensure the interior of your shoes does not have protruding staples or worn-out inner soles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your FALKE knee-highs, treat them with care:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at a low temperature (ideally 30 degrees Celsius). Use a laundry bag to protect the fine knit from snagging on zippers or buttons in the drum.
- Detergent: Use a mild wool detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can coat the wool fibers and reduce their natural breathability.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the socks flat on a clean towel away from direct sunlight or heat sources to maintain their elasticity and shape.
- Compatibility: These socks are specifically designed to fit well within standard formal shoes, loafers, and ankle boots. They are best suited for adult female sizing.
