FAQs
What TOG rating do these socks have?
These HEAT HOLDERS Kids Lite Socks have a TOG rating of 1.6.
How do these socks compare to standard cotton socks?
They are approximately four times warmer than a basic cotton sock due to their thermal properties and brushed lining.
Are these socks suitable for very cold weather?
These are 'Lite' thermal socks, offering a good balance of warmth and thickness. For extreme cold, heavier thermal socks might be more appropriate. However, they provide significantly more warmth than standard socks.
How should I wash these socks?
You can machine wash them at 40°C. It is recommended to line dry them to preserve their quality and thermal properties, although tumble drying is also an option.
What is the material composition?
The fibre composition is 94% Acrylic, 5% Polyester, and 1% Elastane.
Do these socks have non-slip features?
Yes, they feature non-slip grippers on the sole to help prevent slips.
Who is the target age group for these socks?
These specific socks are sized for kids, with this variant being size UK 9-10.
Troubleshooting
Socks feel too tight
Ensure the correct size is being used. If the size is correct, the socks may require a few wears to gently stretch and conform to the foot. Avoid stretching them manually.
Reduced warmth over time
Check for fabric damage or excessive pilling. Gentle washing and line drying will help maintain the thermal properties. Ensure no fabric softeners were used, as they can reduce thermal efficiency.
Grippers losing effectiveness
Wash the socks to remove any dirt or debris that may be on the grippers. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the grippers and make them slippery.
