Storage: Pair and store flat or rolled.

Expanded Care Instructions (clear, step-by-step)

1. Preparation
– Turn inside out before washing to remove sweat, dirt, and bacteria.
– Sort by colour and fabric (cotton, wool, synthetics) to prevent colour transfer and fabric damage.

2. Washing
– Machine wash: use cold or warm water (avoid hot); choose a gentle cycle for delicate and wool.
– Hand wash: soak in lukewarm water with mild detergent; gently rub—do not scrub.

3. Detergent & Additives
– Use a mild detergent; avoid harsh chemicals and fabric softeners that reduce elasticity.
– Do not use bleach unless the sock label explicitly allows it for white cotton.
– For odour control, add a small amount of baking soda or white vinegar to the wash.

4. Drying
– Air‑dry flat to preserve shape and elasticity.
– If using a dryer, select low heat to avoid shrinkage and elastic damage.
– Avoid direct sunlight for coloured socks to prevent fading.

5. Storage
– Pair immediately after drying to avoid mismatches.
– Store flat or rolled (do not stretch over hangers) to preserve elastic life.

Quick Risks & Tips

– High heat shrinks cotton and weakens elastic.
– Bleach causes fibre weakening and discoloration.
– Over‑drying shortens sock lifespan.
– Mixing fabrics (wool with synthetics) can cause pilling or distortion

Special Materials

– Wool socks: cold wash, gentle cycle, no dryer (air-dry only).
– Compression socks: hand wash or gentle cycle, air-dry only to protect compression.
