FAQs

How long does the insect repellent last?

The Nosilife treatment is designed for durable protection throughout the lifespan of the garment, though performance may subtly decrease with very frequent washing cycles. Adhering to the recommended care instructions will help maintain its effectiveness.

Are these socks suitable for cold weather?

Yes, the Merino wool blend provides natural insulation, making them suitable for cooler conditions. However, they are primarily designed for moderate outdoor temperatures and activity levels.

Can I wear these socks with regular shoes?

While designed for boots, they can be worn with other types of footwear. However, their thickness and cushioning are optimized for boot-style footwear.

How do I know which size to order?

The product is available in specific UK size ranges (e.g., 3 UK-5 UK, 9 UK-12 UK). Please refer to standard UK sizing charts to determine the best fit for your foot.

What is the primary benefit of the wool blend?

The wool blend combines the natural benefits of Merino wool (warmth, breathability, odor resistance) with the durability and moisture-wicking properties of synthetic fibers like polypropylene and polyamide.

Are the insect repellent properties safe?

Yes, the Nosilife technology is a permanent treatment integrated into the fabric, designed to be safe for skin contact.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel damp after wear

Ensure socks are correctly washed without fabric softener, which can hinder moisture-wicking. Allow socks to air dry completely between wears.

Insect repellent seems less effective

The Nosilife treatment is designed for long-lasting effectiveness but may gradually diminish with extensive washing. Ensure adherence to care instructions to maximize longevity.

Socks lose shape after washing

Follow the recommended gentle wash cycle and avoid high heat drying or ironing. Air drying is best for maintaining the sock's integrity.
