Full details
The PUMA teamLIGA Core Socks in blue are designed for active kids who require reliable support during athletic activities, particularly football. These socks feature an anatomically correct fit and specialized support zones to enhance performance, though parents should note that the fabric blend prioritizes durability and support over a pure cotton feel, as they are primarily composed of polyester and spandex.

FAQs
Are these socks suitable for adults?
This specific variant is designed for kids, though Puma offers similar teamLIGA models in adult sizing.
Can I tumble dry these socks?
It is not recommended. High heat can damage the spandex, leading to a loss of elasticity.
Why are there different socks for the left and right foot?
The anatomical knitting allows for a better fit around the contours of your feet, reducing bunching and friction inside the shoe.
What is the material composition?
These socks are made from 90% polyester and 10% spandex, with cotton used specifically in the heel and toe areas for comfort.
Do these provide arch support?
Yes, the anatomical design and compression zones provide mid-foot stability similar to arch support.
Troubleshooting
Sock feels too tight around the calf
Ensure the sock is pulled up evenly and the compression zone is aligned correctly over the ankle bone rather than the calf muscle.
Sock slides down inside the boot
Check that you are wearing the correct size and ensure the moisture-wicking fabric is not being compromised by excessively thick inner-shoe linings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, ensure the sock marked 'L' is worn on the left foot and 'R' on the right foot to benefit from the anatomical shaping. To keep these socks performing at their peak, machine wash them in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using harsh bleach or high-heat tumble drying, as excessive heat can break down the spandex fibers and cause the socks to lose their supportive compression over time. Hang drying is recommended to extend the lifespan of the elastic bands.
