Product Information
Full details
The adidas Adizero Calf Running Socks are designed for serious athletes and runners seeking a performance-oriented accessory that minimizes friction and manages moisture. Featuring advanced Climacool technology, these socks effectively wick away sweat to keep feet dry, while the ergonomic, high-elasticity construction provides a stable, blister-reducing fit. While they offer exceptional durability and targeted reinforcements, potential users should be aware that their snug performance compression fit may feel too restrictive for those preferring a looser, casual-wear sock.

Troubleshooting
Socks feel too tight
The Adizero range features a performance compression fit. If you are between sizes, ensure you are utilizing the size guide; otherwise, avoid over-stretching the socks when putting them on.
Material feels slippery inside the shoe
Ensure your shoes are properly tied and that you have positioned the grip area at the back of the heel correctly to maximize friction against the shoe lining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your adidas Adizero socks, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as they can degrade the moisture-wicking capabilities of the Climacool fibers.
- Drying: Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the elasticity and shape of the synthetic material. If you must use a dryer, choose a low-heat setting.
- Compatibility: These socks are designed to work best with performance running shoes. The 'calf' length provides a classic athletic silhouette that pairs well with both shorts and tight-fitting running leggings.
- Storage: Fold them gently to avoid overstretching the elastic fibers when not in use.
