FAQs
How do I know which size to order?
Please refer to the specific sizing guide provided. For size XL, this typically corresponds to Adult Shoe Size 11-14. It is crucial to choose the size that matches your shoe size for the best fit and performance.
Can these socks be worn with shin pads?
Yes, these knee-length sports socks are designed to be worn comfortably with shin pads.
What is the material composition of these socks?
The socks are made from 95% polyamide and 5% elastane, providing a snug, soft, and supportive fit.
How should I wash my WackySox?
Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat and do not iron. Washing inside out can help preserve the design and material integrity.
Are these socks suitable for all sports?
These socks are ideal for high-impact sports like rugby, football, and hockey due to their knee-length design, support features, and moisture-wicking technology.
What makes the footbed 'ultra-high performance'?
The COOLMAX Pro ultra-high performance padded footbeds are designed to actively regulate temperature and wick moisture away from the foot, keeping you cool and dry during strenuous activity.
Do the socks offer arch support?
The socks feature an elasticated central foot band which helps to reduce slippage and provides a secure fit, contributing to overall comfort and support during sports.
Troubleshooting
Socks slipping down during activity
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Double-check that the turnover top and elasticated ankle bands are properly positioned and not bunched up.
Feet feel damp or sweaty
While the socks are moisture-wicking, prolonged intense activity in very warm conditions can still lead to some moisture. Ensure socks are not too tight, which can impede circulation. Wash socks as per care instructions to maintain material performance.
Discomfort or rubbing at the toes
Verify you have the correct size; too small can cause rubbing. The smooth toe seams are designed to prevent blisters, but ensure socks are pulled on smoothly without wrinkles around the toe area.
Socks feel too tight on the calf
Confirm you have selected the correct size according to the shoe size guide. The elasticated turnover top is designed to be snug but should not restrict circulation. If discomfort persists, consider if the sock size is appropriate for your leg circumference.
