Troubleshooting
Socks feel too tight in existing shoes
The Woolie Boolie is a thicker sock. Ensure your cycling or hiking shoes are properly adjusted; you may need to loosen your closure system or dials to accommodate the extra cushion.
Appearance of lint or small fibers
Some shedding is normal for wool products during initial wear. Wash inside out on a delicate cycle to manage fiber integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Merino wool socks, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting, though line drying is highly recommended to prevent shrinkage.
- Compatibility: These socks work with most cycling shoes, hiking boots, and running sneakers. Note that they have a medium-to-thick weight, so ensure your footwear has appropriate volume for a thick wool sock to avoid restricting circulation.
- Durability Tip: Turn socks inside out before washing to reduce surface abrasion and pilling.
