Product Information
Full details
The FALKE Softmerino Knee-High Socks are designed for adults who prioritize comfort and climate control in both professional and casual settings. By blending warming merino wool on the exterior with skin-friendly cotton on the interior, these socks provide a soft, non-scratchy experience that effectively regulates moisture for all-day wear. While they offer exceptional comfort and protection against pressure points, users should note that they require careful laundering to maintain the integrity of the natural wool fibers.

FAQs
Are these socks suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the interior is lined with cotton to ensure the wool does not directly touch the skin, preventing irritation.
Can I put these socks in the dryer?
It is not recommended. Heat can shrink the merino wool and damage the elastic fibers, so air drying is best.
Do I need to wash these more often than synthetic socks?
Because merino wool is naturally odour-inhibiting, you often need to wash them less frequently than purely synthetic socks.
What is the best way to store them?
Store them folded loosely or laid flat in a drawer to maintain the elasticity of the cuffs.
Can these be worn with professional footwear?
Absolutely, the slim, flat-seam design makes them ideal for professional shoes, loafers, and boots.
Troubleshooting
Socks feel slightly itchy
Ensure they are washed with a wool-safe detergent to keep the inner cotton fibers soft and free of residue.
Socks showing signs of pilling
Wash inside out in a laundry bag and avoid contact with rough surfaces inside boots or shoes.
Elastic grip feels loose
Avoid using high heat during drying as it damages the elastic integrity; air dry only.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your FALKE socks remain in optimal condition, always wash them in a gentle cycle with a detergent specifically formulated for wool. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the wool fibers and inhibit their natural moisture-wicking and breathability properties. Always air dry the socks flat rather than using a tumble dryer, as extreme heat can cause the natural fibers to shrink or lose their shape. Ensure you select the correct size to benefit from the intended compression and fit technology designed by the brand.
