Product Information

Full details

FAQs

Are these socks suitable for road cycling?

While designed for MTB, the moisture-wicking and cushioning features can benefit road cyclists, especially on longer rides or in warm weather. However, they are bulkier than typical road cycling socks.

What is the main difference between these and regular sports socks?

These socks feature specialized MTB-specific designs, including enhanced underfoot cushioning, Achilles/ankle protection, and a precise non-slip fit to address the unique demands of mountain biking.

How durable are the T2 AntiShock Cushioning zones?

The T2 cushioning is engineered for longevity and repeated use. Proper care, as outlined in the guide, will help maintain its effectiveness over time.

Can I wear these in cooler weather?

They are designed as summer-weight socks. While they offer some thermal regulation, they are not intended for cold-weather riding. Consider Bridgedale's winter-specific models for colder conditions.

What does 'Sport Fit' mean?

Sport Fit refers to Bridgedale's specific design approach for performance cycling socks, focusing on anatomical shaping, secure fit, and targeted cushioning for athletic activities.

What is the fibre content of these socks?

The fibre content is 34% Polyester/Coolmax, 63% Nylon/Polyamide, and 3% Lycra/Elastane.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the size is correct, allow for a break-in period of a few rides as the materials adapt to your foot shape.

Moisture not wicking effectively.

Ensure socks are not coated with fabric softener, which can impede moisture-wicking. Wash with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Check that your shoes provide adequate ventilation.

Seams feel noticeable.

Verify that the socks are oriented correctly for left and right feet. The underfoot toe seam is designed to be low-profile; ensure it's not bunched up.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Keeps feet cool and dry even in warm conditions.
  • Provides excellent shock absorption to reduce fatigue.
  • Offers targeted protection for Achilles and ankle areas.
  • Ensures a secure, non-slip fit for improved control.
  • Durable construction suitable for demanding mountain biking.

Cons

  • May feel slightly warmer than ultra-lightweight summer socks.
  • The specialized fit might take some getting used to.
  • Higher price point compared to basic sports socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These socks are ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and performance. They are designed to work best with cycling-specific shoes or boots that accommodate a slightly thicker, padded sock.

Compatibility: Compatible with most mountain bike shoes and boots. The sport fit is designed to work well with common cycling shoe geometries.

Care Instructions:

  1. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle.
  2. Use a mild detergent.
  3. Do not bleach.
  4. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry for best results and to preserve fabric integrity.
  5. Do not iron or dry clean.
