FAQs
Can these be worn for non-contact sports?
Yes, their moisture-wicking and comfort features make them excellent for any sport requiring footwear, such as running or gym training.
What is the primary material used?
These socks are crafted from high-performance nylon, chosen for its strength and ability to retain its shape.
Are these socks gender-specific?
This particular variant is designed for females, though WackySox offers a wide range of unisex options within their product line.
Do I need to wear tape with these socks?
The reinforced elastication is designed to keep the socks up on its own, though some players prefer extra tape based on personal preference.
Where are these socks manufactured?
WackySox are proudly manufactured in Great Britain.
How should I clean my WackySox?
Machine wash in cool water and allow them to air dry to preserve the integrity of the compression and moisture-wicking materials.
Troubleshooting
Socks slipping down during a game
Ensure the knee elastication is pulled fully above the calf muscle and that your shin pads are not pushing the fabric down.
Feeling damp inside the boot
Check that the socks are turned right side out and that you are not wearing an additional layer of cotton socks underneath, which traps moisture.
Elastic feeling loose after several washes
Avoid using high-heat tumble drying, which degrades the nylon and elastic fibers over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your WackySox, pull the foot section on first, ensuring the padded area aligns correctly with your sole. Pull the leg section up over your shin pads, adjusting the knee elastication so it sits comfortably above the calf muscle. To maintain the elasticity and moisture-wicking performance, wash these socks in cool to warm water. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and interfere with the COOLMAX technology. Air drying is recommended to extend the lifespan of the elastic components.
