Product Information
Full details
The LeMieux Competition Socks 2 Pack are designed for equestrian athletes who prioritize comfort and boot fit during demanding training sessions or show days. These socks provide essential support through a cushioned footbed while utilizing a lightweight, micro-stretch upper to minimize bulk inside tall riding boots. While they offer superior close-contact performance, the thin upper material requires careful handling to ensure longevity against abrasive boot linings.

FAQs
Can these socks be worn for everyday schooling?
Yes, they are designed to be durable enough for daily riding while providing the comfort required for competition.
Are these socks thick enough for winter?
They are designed to be lightweight and close-fitting, so they do not provide heavy insulation and may not be suitable for freezing temperatures.
How should I wash them?
Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle and allow to air dry to maintain the integrity of the elastic fibers.
Do these socks feature a heel grip?
They provide a snug, compressive fit that holds the sock in place, but they do not feature an added silicone grip.
Is the sizing consistent?
Yes, the sizing follows standard apparel guides, but the stretch nature of the upper allows for a forgiving fit across different calf sizes.
Troubleshooting
Sock slipping down during a ride
Ensure the calf is dry before putting on the socks and verify that your riding boots are properly zipped to provide consistent pressure.
Fabric snagging or pilling
Check the interior lining of your riding boots for rough leather patches or protruding hardware that may be catching the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your LeMieux Competition Socks, proper care is essential. Due to the fine, micro-stretch material used in the leg, these socks should be machine washed on a gentle cycle in cool water. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the elasticity of the technical fabric. Always air dry the socks flat or hang them to dry rather than using a high-heat tumble dryer, which can cause the compression fibers to lose their shape over time. These socks are compatible with all standard tall riding boots, providing the best results when paired with correctly fitted, close-contact leather footwear.
