Product Information
Full details
These Heat Holders Lite Patterned Socks in Floral Blue are designed for adult females seeking comfortable warmth in casual shoes during cooler weather. Their key benefit is providing significant insulation (1.6 TOG) with a lighter feel than thicker thermal socks. A potential caveat is their specific sizing, catering to UK 4-8 / EUR 37-42 / US 5-9.

FAQs
What does a 1.6 TOG rating mean?
TOG is a measure of thermal insulation. A 1.6 TOG rating indicates that these socks provide significant warmth, scientifically tested to be four times warmer than a standard cotton sock.
Are these socks suitable for very cold weather?
These are 'Lite' thermal socks, offering a good balance of warmth and breathability for cooler conditions and milder winter days. For extreme cold, Heat Holders offers thicker options.
How do I ensure the right fit?
The socks are available in one adult size: UK 4-8, EUR 37-42, US 5-9. Please check these measurements against your own shoe size.
Can I tumble dry these socks?
Yes, they can be tumble dried, but we recommend line drying. Line drying helps to maintain the integrity of the fibres and the sock's thermal performance over time.
What makes the 'extra long looped cushion pile' beneficial?
This innovative knitting technology creates a dense, soft pile inside the sock. This structure effectively traps more warm air close to your skin, maximizing insulation and providing all-day comfort.
Are these socks breathable?
Yes, they are designed with superior moisture-breathing abilities to help manage sweat and keep your feet dry, preventing overheating even when providing substantial warmth.
What material are the socks made of?
The fibre composition is 93% Acrylic, 6% Polyester, and 1% Elastane. This blend is chosen for its excellent insulating properties, durability, and comfortable stretch.
Troubleshooting
Socks feel too tight
Ensure you are within the recommended size range (UK 4-8 / EUR 37-42 / US 5-9). The 'Lite' version is designed for a less compressive fit than heavier thermal socks.
Feet still feel cold
While rated 1.6 TOG, these are 'Lite' socks. For extreme cold, consider Heat Holders' thicker thermal sock ranges. Ensure socks are clean and dry, as moisture can reduce insulation.
Pilling after washing
Some minor pilling can occur with acrylic blends. Washing inside out and line drying can help minimize this. Avoid harsh detergents.
