FAQs
Are these socks itchy for children?
No, these socks are made from organic merino wool, which is known for its softness and is generally not itchy, even for sensitive skin.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
The size '7-8' is recommended for children within that age range. If your child is between sizes or has larger calves, you may want to consider sizing up.
Can these socks be worn in summer?
Merino wool is breathable and regulates temperature. While ideal for cooler weather, it can also help keep feet cool and dry in warmer conditions by wicking away moisture.
How often should I wash these socks?
It's recommended to wash them after each wear, especially if the child has been active, to maintain hygiene and the integrity of the wool fibers.
What is the benefit of the knee-high design?
The knee-high design provides extra warmth and coverage, making them suitable for wearing with boots or in colder weather, and offering protection during active play.
Will the geometric pattern fade?
The pattern is integrated into the fabric. Following the recommended care instructions (cold wash, gentle cycle) will help preserve the color and pattern integrity.
Troubleshooting
Socks slipping down the leg
Ensure the socks are correctly sized. Re-adjust them to ensure they are pulled up evenly. The elastane blend is designed to minimize slipping, but very active movement may require minor adjustments.
Socks feel tight or uncomfortable
Verify the size is correct for the child's age (7-8 years). Ensure they are not bunched up around the ankle. If the issue persists, consider a larger size if the current one is borderline.
Loss of elasticity after washing
Avoid high-temperature washing and tumble drying, as these can degrade the elastane. Always follow the cold water, gentle cycle, and flat-dry instructions.
