Troubleshooting
Socks slipping down during activity
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check that the elasticated turnover top and ankle band are clean and free from debris. The socks are designed for a secure fit, so significant slipping may indicate an incorrect size choice.
Feet feel too warm or damp
While designed for moisture-wicking, intense prolonged activity may still lead to some dampness. Ensure socks are fully dry before use. Consider the athletic conditions; in extreme heat, some residual moisture is normal.
Blisters or irritation developing
Verify that the external toe seams are sitting flat against the skin. Ensure the socks are the correct size and fit snugly without being overly tight. If irritation persists, try wearing thinner liner socks underneath.
