Product Information

Full details

These Hilly Marathon Fresh Anklet Min Running Socks are designed for adult runners seeking comfort and odor control during their runs. The key benefit is the Polygiene® technology, which permanently eliminates odor-causing bacteria, keeping feet fresh. A potential consideration is their 'minimum' cushioning level, which may not suit those preferring substantial padding. These socks offer a snug fit with anatomical cushioning and advanced moisture management.

FAQs

What is Polygiene® technology?

Polygiene® is a fabric treatment that uses low concentrations of silver salt, a naturally occurring element, to permanently inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria and fungi at the cellular level. It is safe for skin and does not interfere with the skin's natural bacterial flora.

Will the Polygiene® odor control wash out?

No, the Polygiene® technology is permanently bound and integrated into the sock fibers. It is designed to last the lifetime of the garment and will not wash out.

What does 'Minimum Cushioning' mean for these socks?

Minimum cushioning indicates a low level of padding, specifically in key pressure zones like the heel and toe. This design is for runners who prefer a more direct feel with their footwear and minimal bulk, offering just enough comfort for support.

How do I wash and care for these socks?

Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. Avoid using fabric softener as it can impede the sock's performance.

What is the benefit of LYCRA® SPORT fibre?

LYCRA® SPORT fibre provides a close, comfortable, and supportive fit. It helps the sock to hug the foot, reducing the potential for folds and slippage, which can lead to blisters and discomfort during runs.

What is the satisfaction guarantee?

Hilly offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you experience any issues with your socks, you should contact the retailer you purchased them from, and they will assist with a replacement.

Are these socks suitable for all weather conditions?

The minimum cushioning and upper foot venting make these socks particularly well-suited for warmer weather running due to enhanced breathability. For very cold conditions, runners might prefer socks with more substantial insulation.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The LYCRA® SPORT fibre is designed for a snug fit, but if it feels excessively tight, consider a size up. Ensure the socks are not bunched up inside your shoe.

Odor is not completely eliminated

While Polygiene® is highly effective, extremely prolonged use without washing may still lead to some odor. Ensure socks are washed according to care instructions. The technology is permanent but effectiveness relies on proper hygiene.

Seam irritation in the toe area

The flat under toe seam is designed to prevent irritation. Ensure the sock is pulled on correctly and smoothly, with no folds or bunching in the toe box of your shoe. If irritation persists, try a different sock size or model.
