Troubleshooting

Socks feel too tight or too loose

Review the sizing chart and ensure you have selected the correct size based on your shoe size. Consider if the socks are being worn with or without shin pads, as this can affect fit.

Elastics feel weak after several washes

Follow the care instructions carefully, avoiding high heat drying and harsh detergents which can degrade elastic fibers. Air drying is recommended.

Discomfort or rubbing despite smooth toe seams

Ensure socks are pulled up smoothly without wrinkles. Verify that the correct size has been chosen, as an incorrect fit can still cause friction points.

Moisture-wicking seems less effective

Ensure the socks are clean and free from residual detergents or fabric softeners, which can impede moisture-wicking properties. Ensure the COOLMAX Pro footbeds are not blocked by dirt or debris.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • Sizing needs careful attention to ensure the best fit.
