Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Setting up your adidas Team 23 Sleeve Socks is straightforward:
- First, put on your preferred base socks (e.g., grip socks, padded socks, or regular athletic socks).
- Slide your shin guards onto your shins.
- Pull the adidas Team 23 Sleeve Socks up over your shin guards, ensuring they are positioned securely with the ribbed cuff at the top, just below the knee.
Compatibility
- Base Socks: Fully compatible with a wide range of base socks including padded socks, grip socks, and standard athletic socks. The open-ended design is specifically for this purpose.
- Shin Guards: Designed to accommodate most standard shin guard sizes. The "one size fits most" design offers flexibility but may vary slightly depending on shin guard bulk.
- Sporting Use: Ideal for football (soccer) and any other sport where shin guard retention and moisture management are beneficial.
Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your sleeve socks:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry. Air drying is recommended to preserve fabric integrity.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
- General Tip: Wash with like colors to prevent color transfer. Avoid fabric softeners as they can sometimes impede the moisture-wicking properties of technical fabrics.
