FAQs
Can I tumble dry these socks?
No, you should never tumble dry these socks as the heat will destroy the four-way stretch technology and elasticity.
What type of detergent should I use?
You should use non-bio laundry products to protect the fabric fibers and ensure the longevity of the socks.
Are these socks suitable for daily yard work?
While they are comfortable, they are specifically designed as competition socks to fit under riding boots. Frequent wear in abrasive environments may wear out the lightweight fabric faster.
Does this pack include more than one pair?
Yes, each purchase contains two pairs of socks.
Are these socks unisex?
Yes, these are designed as unisex apparel suitable for all riders.
What is the maximum wash temperature?
The socks should be machine washed at a temperature no higher than 30 degrees Celsius.
Troubleshooting
Socks losing elasticity over time
Ensure you are using non-bio detergents and avoiding high-temperature washing or tumble drying, as these damage the stretch fibers.
Fabric irritation or friction
Check that the socks are pulled up smoothly and no debris or dirt is trapped between the boot and the sock.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These socks are designed to be worn directly against the skin under standard tall riding boots. No special setup is required; simply ensure the sock is pulled taut to avoid any fabric bunching.
To ensure the longevity of the fabric and the compression technology, follow these care steps:
- Turn socks inside out before washing.
- Machine wash at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius.
- Always use non-bio laundry detergents.
- Air dry only; do not use a tumble dryer.
- Avoid bleaching, ironing, or dry cleaning as these processes will damage the integrity of the stretch fibers.
