FAQs
Can these socks be worn for everyday use?
Yes, their design is versatile enough for both hiking and daily comfort.
Are these socks machine washable?
Yes, they are machine washable, but we recommend a gentle cycle in cool or warm water.
Do I need to hang dry them?
While you can tumble dry on low, air drying is the best way to maintain the material's elasticity.
What does the 4 Degree Elite Fit System do?
It uses a specialized elastic system to keep the sock firmly in place, preventing bunching.
What is Indestructawool technology?
It is a manufacturing process that reinforces specific areas of the sock to prevent holes and wear.
Are these socks seam-free?
They feature a 'Virtually Seamless' toe, which minimizes bulk and eliminates pressure points.
Troubleshooting
Sock feels too tight in the toe area
Ensure the heel cup is properly seated before pulling the toe section flat.
Excessive pilling after minimal use
Wash the socks inside out to protect the surface fibers from friction with other garments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Smartwool socks, follow proper care guidelines. Wash inside out in cool or warm water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach, as it can damage the natural fibers. For best results, tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry, as excessive heat can cause shrinkage and compromise the elasticity of the fit system. These socks are compatible with most standard hiking, trekking, and outdoor footwear.
