Product Information
Full details
Designed for adult riders who demand precision in their riding gear, these LeMieux Competition Socks provide professional-grade support and stability for long days in the saddle. They are specifically engineered to sit comfortably under tight-fitting riding boots without creating extra bulk, ensuring optimal connection between the rider's leg and the horse. While they offer superior comfort, users should note that the specialized micro-weight upper is highly technical and requires careful handling during machine washing to maintain its structural integrity.

FAQs
Are these socks suitable for daily yard work?
While durable for riding, the micro-weight upper is designed for the interior of riding boots. Using them for heavy-duty yard work may increase wear and tear.
Does this pack come with different colors?
This specific item is a black twin pack. Other colorways are available in the LeMieux range if needed.
Can I use bleach on these socks?
No, bleach will degrade the technical stretch fibers and compromise the support features of the sock.
Are these socks unisex?
Yes, they are designed to provide a secure, comfortable fit for both male and female adult riders.
What does the XS size correspond to?
The XS size is designed for smaller foot profiles; please refer to your standard shoe size to ensure the most comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
Sock slipping or sliding down inside the boot
Ensure you are wearing the correct size; if the sock continues to slide, ensure the boot is fastened securely to provide proper compression.
Fabric snagging or pilling
Avoid contact with rough surfaces, velcro on breeches, or spurs that are not correctly positioned; pull socks on gently to avoid straining the fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your LeMieux Competition Socks, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash at a low temperature (30 degrees Celsius recommended).
- Drying: Air dry only; avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the elasticized micro-weight fibers in the upper section.
- Compatibility: These are compatible with all standard riding boots, though they are specifically optimized for close-contact dressage and jumping boots.
- Storage: Keep away from sharp objects or velcro fasteners on riding gear, which can snag the delicate weave.
