FAQs

Are these socks suitable for hiking?

Yes, they are excellent for hiking due to their warmth, moisture-wicking properties, and durability. They are best suited for cooler weather hiking.

How should I wash these socks?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent specifically designed for wool. Tumble dry low or air dry.

Will these socks shrink?

Shrinkage can occur if not cared for properly. Always follow washing instructions and avoid high heat.

Can I use bleach on these socks?

No, do not use bleach as it can damage the wool fibers.

Are these socks odor-resistant?

Yes, Merino wool naturally prevents odor buildup.

What is the warranty on these socks?

Simms offers a warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Contact Simms customer service for details.

Where are these socks made?

Troubleshooting

Socks feel itchy.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent. Consider wearing a thin liner sock underneath for added comfort. If the problem persists, you may be sensitive to merino wool and should discontinue use.

Socks are stretched out or lost their shape.

Follow washing and drying instructions carefully. Avoid high heat during drying as this can damage the wool fibers. Consider air-drying to maintain shape.

Socks are not keeping feet warm.

Ensure the socks are the correct size and fit snugly. Check that your boots or shoes are not too tight, as this can compress the socks and reduce their insulating properties. Consider layering with a thinner sock in very cold conditions.
