FAQs
Are these socks fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature a Porelle membrane that makes them completely waterproof while remaining breathable.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is highly recommended to hand wash these socks to preserve the structural integrity of the waterproof membrane.
Are these suitable for cold weather?
Yes, the multi-layer construction provides warmth in addition to waterproof protection, making them ideal for chilly, wet conditions.
Will they prevent blisters?
The 4-way stretch technology and moisture-wicking properties help reduce friction, which is a primary cause of blisters.
How do I choose the right size?
This specific model is size XL; please refer to your standard shoe size to ensure the stretch material fits snugly without restricting circulation.
Troubleshooting
Feeling wet inside the sock
Check if water entered through the top opening (the cuff) or if you are sweating significantly; the membrane is waterproof, but the cuff is not sealed against water flow from above.
Sock feels tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size (XL for this variant). Ensure the sock is pulled straight without twists or bunches.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum lifespan, always follow the care instructions. Hand wash in water no hotter than 40C (104F). Avoid tumble drying, ironing, or dry cleaning, as high heat can damage the waterproof membrane. When wearing, ensure the top of the sock is pulled up fully to maintain the seal and avoid debris entering from the top. These socks are compatible with most standard hiking boots and trail shoes.
