FAQs

Are these socks suitable for daily wear?

Yes, their breathable and moisture-wicking properties make them excellent for everyday use in addition to hiking.

Do these socks really help with circulation?

The non-binding leg design is specifically crafted to avoid constricting the lower leg, which helps in maintaining normal circulation.

Can I machine wash these wool socks?

Yes, but use a delicate cycle and mild detergent to preserve the fibers. Air drying is recommended.

Why is Merino wool used instead of cotton?

Merino wool offers superior moisture management and thermal insulation compared to cotton, keeping feet dry and at a steady temperature.

Will these socks fit people with swollen legs?

The non-binding knitting technology is designed to accommodate different leg contours, making them highly suitable for those with prone-to-swelling legs.

Troubleshooting

Sock feels too loose or slips down

Ensure you are wearing the correct size and that the sock is pulled up smoothly against the calf to utilize the non-binding knit elasticity.

Sock develops pilling after wear

Pilling is common with natural wool; use a fabric shaver or gentle lint brush to maintain the smooth surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents leg restriction and pressure marks
  • High-quality Merino wool for temperature regulation
  • Ideal for individuals with sensitive skin or circulatory concerns
  • Smooth, friction-reducing seam construction

Cons

  • Medium thickness may not fit in very tight-fitting shoes
  • Requires careful laundering to maintain wool integrity
  • Limited to specific sizing options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your IOMI socks maintain their non-binding properties and wool quality, proper care is essential. Always wash them in cool to warm water with a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents or high-heat tumble drying, as extreme heat can cause the natural wool fibers to shrink or lose their elasticity. Because these socks are designed for comfort, they are best suited for footwear that allows for natural foot expansion. When preparing for a hike, ensure your boots are laced to support the ankle while allowing the sock to provide its intended blood-flow-friendly fit.
