FAQs

How does the Nosilife technology work?

Nosilife is a permanent insect-repellent treatment woven into the fabric fibers that helps deter mosquitoes and other biting insects.

Are these socks suitable for machine washing?

Yes, they can be machine washed, but it is recommended to wash at 30°C and avoid fabric softeners to protect the technical coatings.

Are these socks unisex?

Yes, these socks are designed with a unisex fit suitable for any adult user.

Do they prevent blisters?

The flat toe seam and cushioned heel/toe design are specifically implemented to reduce friction and help prevent blister formation.

Can I use these for winter hiking?

These are ankle socks primarily suited for warmer conditions or mild weather; for winter, you may require thicker, wool-based options.

Troubleshooting

Sock slipping down inside the shoe

Ensure the double cuff is pulled up properly and that the shoe is laced tightly enough to provide adequate tension.

Feeling damp during heavy activity

While breathable, cotton retains more moisture than wool; consider carrying a spare pair for long, high-intensity hikes to swap out.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective integrated insect-repellent technology
  • Excellent cushioning for long-term comfort
  • Flat toe seams minimize blister risk
  • Secure fit provided by the double cuff

Cons

  • Limited to ankle-length coverage
  • Cotton-rich fabric may retain moisture compared to full synthetic alternatives
  • Insect repellent efficacy may fade over extended wash cycles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the longevity of your Craghoppers socks, wash them inside out at 30°C using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the fabric and degrade the efficiency of the anti-insect and anti-odour treatments. They are fully compatible with standard hiking boots and trail shoes. Ensure you choose the correct size based on your specific shoe measurement to benefit fully from the targeted cushioning zones.
