Product Information

Full details

The Dhb Primaloft Wool Socks are high-performance cycling essentials designed for adult cyclists who require reliable warmth and moisture management during cold-weather rides. By blending merino wool with PrimaLoft polyester, these socks provide excellent insulation and a soft feel without the bulk, ensuring your feet stay comfortable inside tight-fitting cycling shoes; however, riders needing extreme expedition-level thermal protection might find these better suited for moderate rather than sub-zero winter temperatures.

FAQs

Are these socks waterproof?

No, they are designed for warmth and moisture management, not as waterproof barriers.

Do these socks shrink in the wash?

If washed on a high-heat cycle or tumble dried, they may shrink. Always follow the cold or gentle wash recommendations.

Can I wear these for hiking?

While they are comfortable, they are specifically engineered for the pedaling motion of cycling and may not have the cushioning required for long-distance hiking.

What does the 18 cm cuff mean?

This refers to the height of the sock measured from the heel, reaching approximately mid-calf.

Are these suitable for summer riding?

These are intended for cold-weather riding; they will likely be too warm for typical summer temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel damp after short rides

Ensure your cycling shoes are not overtightened, which can restrict airflow and cause moisture build-up.

Material pilling or thinning

Avoid washing with abrasive items like jeans or gear with zippers; always use a laundry bag for delicate wool cycles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio
  • Moisture-wicking properties keep feet dry
  • Anatomical design prevents mid-ride slippage
  • Low profile fits well in race-fit cycling shoes

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme deep-winter sub-zero temperatures
  • Requires careful washing to maintain wool integrity
  • Limited to cycling-specific fit

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Dhb Primaloft Wool Socks, treat them as you would other technical wool garments. Wash them in a machine on a gentle cycle at a low temperature, ideally using a wool-safe detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the natural moisture-wicking capabilities of the merino wool and clog the breathable fibres. Air dry the socks rather than using a tumble dryer, as heat can shrink the fibres and compromise the anatomical fit. These are compatible with all standard road and mountain bike cycling shoes.
