Product Information
Full details
The HOKA Race Day Crew Sock is engineered for competitive runners who demand a lightweight, responsive feel during high-intensity efforts. Designed to complement HOKA's fastest performance footwear, these socks feature a minimalist construction with strategic ventilation and secure-fit technology. While they excel at providing a sleek, barely-there sensation for race conditions, the ultra-thin material may offer less long-term durability compared to thicker, daily-training socks.

FAQs
Are these socks unisex?
Yes, the HOKA Race Day Crew Sock is designed for all runners regardless of gender.
Can I use these for long-distance training?
While they are comfortable, they feature minimal cushioning. They are best reserved for race days or speed workouts.
What is the primary benefit of the open-hole mesh?
The mesh provides enhanced airflow and moisture management, which is critical for keeping feet cool during high-intensity efforts.
How do I choose the right size?
Choose your size based on your standard shoe or apparel size; the socks are constructed with enough stretch to accommodate natural foot swelling during runs.
Is the silicone gripper safe for sensitive skin?
The gripper is standard grade, but if you have known silicone allergies, it is recommended to test them during a short run before committing to a full race.
Troubleshooting
Sock slipping or sliding during run
Ensure the silicone gripper is resting directly against the skin and not over a layer of hair or hair products; also, ensure you are wearing the correct size.
Excessive wear on the sole
This sock is designed for race days; for high-mileage daily training, use a sock with higher density reinforcement in the heel and toe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, select your size based on standard athletic apparel sizing. When putting on the socks, ensure the silicone grip is positioned correctly around the ankle/calf to maximize the hold. To maintain the integrity of the breathable mesh and the silicone gripper, it is recommended to machine wash in cold water on a delicate cycle. Avoid using heavy-duty detergents or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the moisture-wicking properties and the grip. Air drying is highly recommended to extend the life of the performance fibers.
