FAQs
Are these socks scratchy?
No. The interior is lined with skin-friendly cotton, ensuring the merino wool does not directly contact your skin.
Can I put these in the dryer?
It is strongly recommended to air dry them to maintain the elasticity and integrity of the merino wool fibers.
Are they suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the cotton-lined interior is specifically designed to be gentle on sensitive skin.
How long do these socks usually last?
With proper care—specifically washing them cold and air drying—the reinforced stress zones help them maintain durability significantly longer than standard thin dress socks.
Can I wear these with formal boots?
Yes, their thin profile makes them ideal for boots and ankle boots, as they provide warmth without adding excessive bulk.
Troubleshooting
Socks slipping down during the day
Ensure they are pulled up fully and that no skin lotion is present on the legs, as oils can compromise the grip of the cuff.
Small snags in the fabric
Avoid contact with rough surfaces or sharp objects. If a small snag occurs, do not pull it; gently smooth the fabric around it to redistribute the tension.
Feeling slightly damp
Ensure the shoes worn are also breathable. The socks are designed to regulate moisture, but they perform best when paired with breathable footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your FALKE knee-high socks, proper care is essential.
- Washing: Use a gentle, cold water cycle or wash by hand. Avoid using bleach or heavy detergents that can strip the natural oils from the merino wool.
- Drying: Air dry these socks flat. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can damage the elastic fibers and cause the socks to shrink or lose their shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure your toenails are trimmed to prevent accidental snagging of the fine knit fabric.
- Compatibility: These socks work best with leather boots, ankle boots, and formal pumps. Their versatile red color serves as a subtle, sophisticated accent to neutral business attire.
