FAQs

What makes these socks different from regular boot socks?

These socks feature an integrated anti-insect treatment (Nosilife technology) and a blend of Merino Wool for superior insulation, moisture-wicking, and odor control, making them ideal for outdoor adventures.

How long does the insect repellent treatment last?

The duration of the insect repellent treatment depends on wear and care. Following the recommended washing and drying instructions will help maintain its effectiveness for as long as possible.

Can I wear these socks in summer?

While the moisture-wicking properties help, the wool blend offers significant insulation. They are best suited for cooler summer days or evenings, or in environments where insect protection is a priority. For very hot conditions, lighter options might be preferable.

Are these socks suitable for sensitive skin?

Merino Wool is naturally soft and less likely to cause irritation than some other wools. However, individual sensitivities can vary. The blend also includes synthetic fibers.

How should I wash these socks to preserve the features?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle (30°C or 40°C) with a mild detergent. It is best to air dry them and avoid tumble drying or ironing, which can damage the fibers and treatments.

What is the material composition?

The socks are made from a blend of 38% Merino Wool, 38% Polypropylene, 23% Polyamide, and 1% Elastane.

Do these socks come in different sizes?

Yes, these socks are available in various adult sizes. Please refer to the product's sizing chart to find the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel too tight or too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the product's sizing guide. A proper fit is crucial for comfort and performance.

Reduced effectiveness of insect repellent

The anti-insect treatment has a finite lifespan. Follow care instructions carefully to maximize its longevity. If effectiveness diminishes significantly, consider socks with newly applied treatments.

Socks feel excessively warm

While designed for insulation, Merino Wool can be warm. For very hot weather, consider lighter-weight or synthetic-only socks. Ensure boots provide adequate ventilation.

Fabric pilling or wear after multiple washes

Follow the recommended gentle wash cycle and air-drying. Avoid harsh detergents, high spin speeds, and tumble drying.

Cons
