Product Information
Full details
The Nike Academy Football Socks are designed for adult football players seeking enhanced performance through anatomical support and moisture management. These knee-high socks utilize Dri-FIT technology to keep feet dry during intense matches, featuring a reinforced structure for long-lasting durability; however, users should note that the nylon-heavy blend provides a compressive fit that may feel tighter than standard everyday socks.

FAQs
Are these socks left and right foot specific?
Yes, they feature an anatomical design with left/right specific shaping for an enhanced fit.
Can I put these in the dryer?
While they are machine washable, it is best to air dry them to prevent heat damage to the synthetic fibers.
Are these knee-high socks?
Yes, they are designed as knee-high socks to provide full coverage for shin guards.
What is the material composition?
The socks are primarily made of 97-98% nylon with 2-3% elastane or spandex for stretch.
Do they provide arch support?
Yes, they include built-in arch support to provide a snug and supportive feel.
Troubleshooting
Socks slipping down during play
Ensure the socks are pulled up correctly and the fold-over cuff is positioned snugly; check that your shin guards are not too bulky.
Fabric losing elasticity
Avoid high-heat drying, which degrades the nylon/spandex blend. Use cold water cycles and air dry to restore fiber memory.
Dri-FIT technology not wicking effectively
The buildup of fabric softener can block moisture transport. Wash the socks without softeners to strip the residue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Academy Football Socks maintain their shape and sweat-wicking properties, adhere to these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water with like colors. Avoid heavy detergents that can break down the moisture-wicking finish.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to preserve the integrity of the elastane fibers. If using a machine, tumble dry on a low-heat setting.
- Bleach/Softener: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can coat the synthetic fibers and negate the effectiveness of the Dri-FIT technology.
- Compatibility: These knee socks are compatible with all standard football shin guards and provide enough length to comfortably fold over the top of the guard for a secure fit.
