Ensure the skin is clean of any lotions or oils before putting the socks on, as these can affect the grip of the cuff.
Wash the socks inside out within a laundry mesh bag to prevent friction against other garments in the washing machine.
To ensure the longevity of the nylon-blend fabric, it is recommended to machine wash these socks at a low temperature (30°C/86°F) using a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach, fabric softeners, or harsh detergents, as these can break down the breathable fibers and compromise the elastic properties of the cuff. For the best fit, ensure you select your size based on standard cycling sizing, as the 18cm cuff is designed to sit comfortably on the calf. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the integrity of the fabric and prevent shrinkage.
