FAQs
What materials are these socks made from?
These socks are made from a blend of 51% nylon, 23% cotton, 23% polyester, and 3% elastane, providing a balance of durability, moisture management, and stretch.
Are these socks suitable for long-distance running?
Yes, with their padded heel and toe, moisture-wicking fabric, and ergonomic fit, they are designed to provide comfort and reduce friction during both short and long-distance runs.
How do the Fresh Guard odour neutraliser work?
The Fresh Guard treatment inhibits the growth of odour-causing bacteria on the fabric, helping to keep your feet and socks smelling fresher for longer.
Can I machine wash these socks?
Yes, these socks are machine washable. It is recommended to wash them with similar colours on a gentle cycle using cold or lukewarm water and to air dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Why might the style of the socks vary?
The manufacturer indicates that the style you receive may vary. This can sometimes occur with multi-packs or ongoing product updates, where minor aesthetic details might differ from the product image.
Are these socks specifically for women?
Yes, the product description specifies these are 'Ladies running socks' and they are designed with a 'Female' gender attribute, suggesting they are tailored for a women's foot shape and size.
Will these socks help prevent blisters?
The padded toe and heel, combined with the ergonomic fit and moisture-wicking properties, are specifically designed to reduce friction and keep your feet dry, which are key factors in preventing blisters during running.
Troubleshooting
Feet still feel sweaty or damp during/after a run.
Ensure your running shoes offer good ventilation. While the socks are moisture-wicking, extremely hot conditions or non-breathable shoes can hinder full evaporation. Also, check if the socks are showing signs of wear, as older socks may lose their wicking efficiency over time.
Odour persists even after washing.
Ensure you are washing the socks after every use. For stubborn odours, consider adding a sports detergent or a small amount of white vinegar to your wash cycle. Also, check your running shoes for odour build-up, as this can transfer to socks.
Socks feel too tight or loose.
Verify you have the correct size. Running socks should fit snugly without being restrictive. If you are between sizes, consider trying both to find the ideal fit. An incorrect fit can lead to discomfort and reduced performance.
Experiencing blisters despite the padding.
While padding reduces friction, other factors like ill-fitting shoes, new shoes, or very long distances can still cause blisters. Ensure your shoes fit well, are properly broken in, and consider using anti-chafing balm on prone areas.

These running socks require no special setup; simply pull them on as you would any other sock. They are designed for optimal performance when worn with appropriate running footwear. To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your Karrimor running socks, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine washable. Wash with similar colours on a gentle cycle, using cold or lukewarm water. Avoid using bleach, as it can damage the fabric's properties.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the elastic and moisture-wicking properties. If using a dryer, tumble dry on a low heat setting. High heat can cause shrinkage and break down the fibres.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
