Socks are an essential element. Good boots mean nothing without the right socks, which are necessary for our feet not to suffer from sweating problems or blisters.
For our feet to breathe correctly, it is not sufficient for our footwear to have Gore-Tex® or not. For optimal performance of our footwear, it is essential to choose the right socks, as this will have a considerable effect on our comfort, especially in terms of climatic comfort.
Washing tips
Both Coolmax and Thermolite fibres can be washed by hand or machine at a suitable temperature of about 35º (never more than 40º).
The use of fabric softeners is not recommended because they can damage the capillary effect, i.e. the evacuation of sweat.
It is always advisable to wash socks inside out because it is in that part of the garment where the sweat and dead skin cells are.
Drying can be done by machine, but it should not be aggressive, i.e. it is advisable to leave the garment with a point of humidity and let it finish drying in the air.
