Extended Product Information

FAQs

What makes these socks 'Endurance' socks?

The 'Endurance' designation highlights their design for long-distance comfort, durability, and support, using specialized yarns and construction to minimize fatigue on extended rides.

What is the material composition?

The socks are primarily composed of 90% Polyamide and 10% Elastane, offering a blend of durability, stretch, and fast-drying properties.

How do I determine my size?

Assos provides three sizes: 0 (EU 35-38), I (EU 39-42), and II (EU 43-46). Refer to the product description or Assos sizing chart for precise measurements.

Are these socks suitable for all seasons?

They are engineered for cooling breathability and long-distance comfort, making them ideal for spring, summer, and autumn riding. For very cold conditions, dedicated winter socks would be more appropriate.

Can I use these for activities other than cycling?

While optimized for cycling, their supportive and comfortable design may be beneficial for other endurance sports. However, the specific features like cuff height and compression are tailored for cycling ergonomics.

How does the compression work?

Odor-resistant yarns are mapped to provide light, targeted compression across the metatarsals, arch, and ankle, offering support without being constrictive.

What is the cuff height?

The cuff height is universally appropriate at 18cm (approximately 7 inches).

Troubleshooting

Socks feel too tight or too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the Assos sizing guide. Re-measure your foot if necessary.

Excessive heat or moisture build-up

While designed for breathability, in extremely hot conditions, ensure your cycling shoes also offer adequate ventilation. Check that the socks are not excessively worn, which could reduce their wicking properties.

Seams causing irritation (rare due to seamless design)

Verify the socks are correctly positioned on your foot and not twisted. Ensure no debris is trapped within the sock.
