Product Information
Full details
Designed for adult riders who demand precision and comfort in the saddle, the LeMieux Competition Socks in Pink offer a lightweight, ultra-close fit that enhances the connection between leg and horse. These socks feature a compression-focused design that prevents bunching inside long riding boots, allowing for a distraction-free performance; however, users should note that the ultra-thin material is specifically engineered for competitive use and may offer less cushioning than thicker, everyday casual socks.

FAQs
Are these socks suitable for daily yard work?
While they are comfortable enough for daily use, their primary design is for competition and riding to minimize bulk in tall boots; you may prefer a thicker sock for heavy manual labor.
How should I wash these to keep them supportive?
Machine wash on a cool setting and avoid tumble drying to preserve the elasticity and compression fibers.
Do these socks come in different sizes?
Yes, LeMieux offers various sizing options across their competition range to ensure a proper fit for adult feet.
Are the seams truly seamless?
They feature a low-profile, smooth topside seam designed to minimize bulk and prevent rubbing against the inside of your riding boots.
Will these socks keep me warm in winter?
These are lightweight performance socks. They are breathable to prevent overheating, so they are not designed for extreme cold insulation.
Troubleshooting
Sock feels tight on the calf
Ensure the sock is pulled evenly from the foot upwards to distribute the compression tension throughout the length of the leg.
Sock slipping down during use
Check that your boot fits correctly; if the boot is too loose, the friction against the sock may cause it to slide regardless of the sock design.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your LeMieux Competition Socks maintain their compression properties and structural integrity, always wash them in a gentle cycle with like colors. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as these can degrade the elasticity of the synthetic stretch material over time. These socks are specifically compatible with all styles of long riding boots, from dressage field boots to synthetic schooling gear. For best results, pull the socks up fully and smooth them out before sliding your boots on to ensure an even distribution of the compression fabric across the calf.
