How do I wash my WackySox?
Wash in cool water using standard detergent. Avoid bleaching and high-heat drying to maintain the performance of the technical fabrics.

Yes, WackySox are designed as unisex apparel suitable for adult athletes of all genders.
What is the main material used?
These socks are primarily constructed from high-quality polyester, chosen for its durability and moisture-wicking capabilities.

WackySox are proudly manufactured in Great Britain.
Troubleshooting
Sock slipping down during play
Ensure the knee-high elastic section is not being stretched over excessive bulk. Check that the sock is pulled all the way up and that you are not using fabric softeners, which can make the fabric slippery.
Feeling friction in the toe area
Ensure the flat toe seam is aligned correctly against your skin. If the sock is too large, the excess fabric may fold and cause friction; ensure you are using the correct size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your WackySox maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Slide the sock on and align the central foot band with your arch for maximum support. Pull the leg section up fully before placing your shin pads to ensure even tension.
- Compatibility: These are compatible with all standard football, rugby, and hockey shin pads. The unisex sizing in Medium (M) is designed to fit a standard adult foot profile.
- Washing: Wash in cool water to preserve the elastic integrity and moisture-wicking properties of the polyester blend. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the synthetic fibers and weaken the stay-up elastication.
