Combining moisture-managing merino wool with synthetic insulation, these socks are perfect for long winter training sessions, though they are specifically intended for use in cool to cold conditions and may feel too warm for mild spring or summer weather.

FAQs

Can I use these socks for walking?

While intended for cycling, their thermal properties make them suitable for other outdoor activities, though they are optimized for the anatomical demands of pedaling.

Are they itchy like traditional wool?

No, the blend of merino wool and synthetic fibres is designed to be soft and comfortable against the skin.

Will these fit in my race-fit shoes?

Yes, their low-bulk construction is specifically designed to minimize volume while maximizing warmth.

Do I need to wash them inside out?

It is not strictly required, but washing inside out can help preserve the outer knit surface of the socks.

Are these socks waterproof?

No, they are moisture-wicking and insulating, but they will not prevent water from penetrating if you ride through deep puddles.

Troubleshooting

Socks slipping down during rides

Ensure you are using the correct size; the anatomical design relies on the fabric's elasticity to grip the calf properly.

Feeling damp after a ride

This may indicate the shoes are not breathable enough to allow moisture transfer; check if your shoe vents are blocked.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio
  • Low-bulk design fits comfortably under snug cycling shoes
  • Effective moisture wicking keeps feet dry
  • Secure anatomical fit prevents bunching or slipping

Cons

  • Not suitable for hot summer temperatures
  • Requires specific low-temperature wash care
  • Limited to hand-wash or gentle machine cycles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Dhb Primaloft Cycling Socks last through many winters, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at a maximum of 30°C. Always use a gentle cycle.
  2. Colour Care: Wash dark colours separately to prevent dye transfer.
  3. Restrictions: Do not bleach, tumble dry, iron, or dry clean the socks, as this will damage the technical fibres and elastic composition.
  4. Compatibility: These are compatible with all standard road, mountain, and gravel cycling shoes. Their anatomical shape is designed for a unisex fit, ensuring reliability regardless of the shoe type used.
