FAQs
What is the primary material used in these socks?
The Fox Ranger 6in MTB Socks are constructed from durable, high-performance nylon.
Are these socks gender-specific?
No, these are unisex socks designed to fit a wide range of adult foot sizes.
Can these be worn for road cycling?
While designed for mountain biking, their moisture-wicking properties and compression support make them suitable for road cycling as well.
What does the 6in refer to?
The 6-inch measurement refers to the height of the cuff, measured from the heel to the top of the sock.
How should I wash them?
Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach.
Troubleshooting
Socks slipping down during rides
Ensure the rib-knit cuff is placed correctly against the skin without being bunched; avoid fabric softeners which can reduce the grip of the fibers.
Excessive heat buildup
Check that the shoe ventilation matches the sock mesh zones; if riding in extreme heat, ensure your outer shoe does not restrict the breathability of the mesh panels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your Fox Ranger 6in MTB Socks, wash them in cold water with like colors on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the moisture-wicking and compression capabilities of the nylon material. It is recommended to air dry the socks or use a low-heat tumble dry setting. They are compatible with all standard MTB footwear and are designed to pair best with shoes that offer moderate ventilation.
