Product Information

Full details

The Dhb Primaloft Wool Socks are an essential accessory for adult cyclists who require reliable warmth and comfort during cold-weather training and long-distance winter rides. By blending merino wool with high-performance PrimaLoft fibers, these socks offer superior moisture management and insulation without adding excessive bulk to your cycling shoes. While they provide excellent thermal regulation, users should be mindful that their technical material requires careful laundering to maintain the integrity of the fibers over time.

FAQs

Can I put these socks in the tumble dryer?

No, tumble drying is not recommended as the high heat can damage the merino wool and synthetic fibers, leading to shrinkage.

Are these socks waterproof?

No, these are not waterproof. They are designed for warmth and moisture management. For wet conditions, pair them with cycling overshoes.

What is the best way to wash them?

Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius on a gentle cycle, preferably using a wool-friendly detergent.

Can these be used for activities other than cycling?

While designed for cycling, the thermal properties make them suitable for other outdoor activities like hiking or walking in cold weather.

Do these socks provide compression?

They feature an anatomical fit designed for stability and comfort, but they are not classified as medical-grade compression socks.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel slightly damp after a long ride

This is likely due to moisture saturation from external rain or excessive sweat; ensure you are using breathable, waterproof overshoes in wet weather.

Visible pilling after several washes

Wash the socks inside-out and avoid washing them with items featuring abrasive zippers or Velcro, which can catch the wool fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective moisture management keeps feet dry

  • Mid-length cuff prevents drafts

Cons

  • Requires specific washing temperatures
  • Not suitable for extremely wet conditions without outer shoe covers
  • Limited to adult sizing for specific variants

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Dhb Primaloft Wool Socks, proper maintenance is vital. Due to the high wool content, these socks must be machine washed at a maximum temperature of 30 degrees Celsius. Avoid using aggressive biological detergents or bleach, as these can degrade the natural fibers and the stretch capacity of the elastane.

We recommend air drying the socks flat in a shaded area rather than using a tumble dryer, which can cause the fabric to shrink or lose its shape. Because these are unisex, ensure you check the specific size guide for the 'L' or 'S' variants to ensure the correct heel-to-toe fit before your first ride.
