FAQs

Can I tumble dry these socks?

It is recommended to air dry or use a low-heat setting on your dryer to preserve the elasticity of the arch and cuff.

Are these socks gender-specific?

These are unisex socks, available in various sizes from S to L to accommodate different foot shapes.

What temperature should I wash them at?

The manufacturer recommends washing at 40°C to maintain the integrity of the performance fabrics.

Are they suitable for trail running?

While excellent for road running and gym work, the ankle-height cut may allow debris to enter the shoe more easily on rugged trails compared to crew-length socks.

How do I know which size to pick?

Refer to the standard apparel size guide based on your shoe size; the 'M' size is generally standard for most medium-fit requirements.

Do they really prevent blisters?

The flat-toe seams and moisture-wicking zones are specifically designed to minimize the friction and moisture that cause blisters, though individual fit is also a major factor.

Troubleshooting

Sock slipping down into the shoe

Ensure the elasticated arch band is positioned correctly under the midfoot and the ribbed cuff is fully pulled up.

Fabric feels damp after short workouts

Ensure you are using the socks with breathable, mesh-upper trainers to allow the mesh ventilation zones to function effectively.

Premature wear on the heel area

Check the interior of your running shoes for rough edges or worn-out heel liners that may be causing excessive abrasion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your New Balance Performance Ankle Socks, follow these care instructions. These socks are machine washable; for optimal results, wash them at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid using harsh bleach or high-heat tumble drying, as these can degrade the elastic fibres in the arch and cuff. When pairing with footwear, these socks are most compatible with low-profile running trainers and cross-training shoes. Because the construction is designed to grip the leg, ensure you pull the cuff up fully to engage the ribbed tension, which prevents the fabric from sliding during vigorous activity.
