How to use: Just put on these socks like you would with any other pair. They're great for everyday wear, whether you're at the office or out on a hike. Note: Avoid wearing overly tight shoes with these socks as it might reduce the cushioning effect. Maintenance: Wash them in cold water with mild detergent. Don't use bleach. You can tumble - dry them on low heat, but air - drying is better to maintain the shape and quality of the merino wool.
