FAQs

While very comfortable, these socks are specifically designed with compression and a close fit for riding boots. For everyday casual wear, you might find them a bit too snug.
How many pairs of socks are included in a pack?

Can I wear these with short riding boots?

What is the main benefit of the compression feature?
The gentle compression helps to enhance the fit of your long boots, reducing bulk and providing a more streamlined, comfortable feel, which can also aid in support.
What material are the socks made from?
They are made from a lightweight, seamless, low-profile fabric with a micro-weight stretch upper.
How do I ensure the best fit?

Are these socks gender-specific?
No, these socks are designed as unisex and are suitable for riders of any gender.
Troubleshooting
Socks feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the size is correct, try wearing them for short periods initially to allow the fabric to adapt to your leg shape.
Socks bunching inside boots
Make sure the socks are pulled up smoothly without any wrinkles, especially around the ankle and calf. Ensure the boot is also properly fitted and not too loose.
Fabric pilling after washing
Wash on a cold, gentle cycle and avoid tumble drying. Air drying is best. Ensure you are not washing with abrasive materials like denim or velcro.
