FAQs

Do I need to hand wash them?

What is the primary material used?
The socks are constructed from a performance wool blend designed for both comfort and durability.
Will these socks cause blisters?
Their moisture-wicking properties are designed to keep feet dry, which is the best way to prevent friction and blisters during long hikes.
Are these available in other sizes?

Troubleshooting
Socks feel too loose after a few miles.
Ensure you are wearing the correct size; if the material bunches, it may be due to moisture saturation or boots being laced too loosely.
Visible signs of pilling on the sole.
This is normal for high-wool content socks. Turn them inside out when washing to reduce surface friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Bridgedale socks, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle (30°C/86°F).
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the fibers and compromise the ThermoFit elasticity.
- Compatibility: These socks work best with low-to-mid-cut hiking boots or trail shoes.
- Storage: Store flat or loosely rolled to maintain the integrity of the knit structure.
