FAQs

Are these socks suitable for summer riding?

These are 'Mid Season' weight socks. While the mesh ventilation helps, they may be too thick for very hot summer climates.

Can I tumble dry these socks?

It is not recommended to tumble dry as heat can degrade the natural fibres and affect the fit.

Do I need to use special detergent?

Using a wool-specific or mild detergent without fabric softener is best for maintaining the Merino performance.

Why is the padding asymmetrical?

The padding is mapped to the specific pressure points of a cyclist's foot to provide protection where it is most needed without adding unnecessary bulk.

Will these socks shrink?

When cared for according to the instructions and washed at 40°C without high-heat drying, the socks are designed to hold their shape.

Are these suitable for hiking?

While they provide comfort, they are specifically engineered with features (like vibration-dampening for pedal pressure) optimized for mountain biking.

Troubleshooting

Sock feels bunched inside the cycling shoe

Ensure the sock is pulled taut and the anatomical heel cup is properly seated before putting on your footwear.

Sock slipping down during ride

Check that the cuff is not being obstructed by trouser hems or knee pads; the tighter weave is designed to grip the lower calf directly.

Excessive moisture buildup

Confirm that your cycling shoe has adequate ventilation; if the issue persists, ensure you are not wearing additional cotton layers underneath.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking and anti-odour properties
  • Anatomical padding provides genuine trail vibration reduction
  • Stay-put cuff prevents slipping and debris ingress
  • Durable construction suitable for rugged MTB conditions

Cons

  • Mid-season weight may be too warm for peak summer temperatures
  • Not intended for casual wear outside of active cycling
  • Requires specific care to maintain Merino wool integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance and longevity, pull the socks on to ensure the anatomical heel and toe zones are correctly aligned with your foot shape. These socks are highly compatible with standard mountain bike shoes that feature moderate ventilation. For care, wash the socks in a machine on a gentle cycle at 40°C. To maintain the elasticity and natural properties of the Merino wool, avoid using fabric softeners or bleach. Air drying is highly recommended to prevent potential shrinkage and to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fiber blend.
