Product Information
Full details
The Muji Right Angle Ribbed Socks are designed for adults seeking an ergonomic everyday sock that stays securely in place. By utilizing a unique 90-degree heel construction instead of the industry-standard 120-degree angle, these socks provide a superior anatomical fit that minimizes bunching and discomfort; however, they require specific attention during laundry cycles to maintain their shape and elasticity over time.

FAQs
What makes the 90-degree angle better than standard socks?
Standard socks typically use a 120-degree angle, which causes excess fabric to bunch up. The 90-degree design mirrors the actual angle of the foot for a more precise, stay-put fit.
Are these socks breathable?
Yes, they are made from high-quality cotton designed to be breathable while incorporating features that help manage and eliminate sweat odour.
Do these socks come in different colours?
Yes, the Muji Right Angle Ribbed series is available in various colours including brown, white, blue, and beige.
Can I tumble dry these socks?
It is not recommended. Air drying is best to maintain the specific 90-degree heel shape and prevent the cotton from shrinking.
Who are these socks for?
They are designed for adults looking for everyday socks that offer an ergonomic fit and consistent comfort.
Troubleshooting
Socks feel too tight at the calf
Ensure you are not putting them in the high-heat dryer cycle, which can cause the elastic fibres to lose their elasticity.
Sock heel seems to be shifting
Verify that you are aligning the heel pocket correctly during initial wear; the 90-degree angle must be seated perfectly at the back of your heel to function as intended.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these socks rely on a precise anatomical shape, proper care is essential to keep the 90-degree heel in its intended form.
Care Instructions
- Washing: Machine wash in cold or warm water using a gentle cycle. Avoid high-heat drying, as extreme heat can cause the cotton to shrink and lose its specific shape.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to extend the lifespan of the fibres and maintain the elastic quality of the ribs.
- Storage: Store flat or folded loosely; avoid stretching the heel area over hard objects or improper forms for long periods.
