FAQs

Are these socks suitable for everyday wear, not just outdoor activities?

Yes, the Korda Kore Merino Wool Socks are designed for both specific outdoor uses and general everyday comfort, especially during colder months due to their warmth and breathability.

What sizes are available?

The socks are available in two sizes: UK 10-12 and UK 7-9.

What are the color options?

The socks are available in Olive and Black.

How do I wash these merino wool socks?

It is recommended to machine wash them cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent for wool or delicates. Lay flat to dry and do not tumble dry.

Can I wear these socks with waterproof boots?

Yes, they are compatible with various footwear, including boots. However, for maximum breathability and moisture management, consider the breathability of your footwear as well.

Are these socks suitable for hiking?

Yes, the natural breathability and warmth of the merino wool make them a good choice for hiking in cooler conditions.

What makes merino wool good for regulating body heat?

Merino wool fibers have a natural crimp that traps air, providing insulation. They also wick moisture away from the skin, preventing the cooling effect that can occur when sweat evaporates, thus helping to maintain a stable temperature.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel damp after prolonged activity.

While merino wool is breathable, extreme conditions or activity levels might overwhelm its moisture-wicking capacity. Ensure your footwear also allows for some breathability. Allow socks to air out if possible.

Socks have lost their shape after washing.

Ensure you are following the specific care instructions: machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and lay flat to dry. Avoid high heat or aggressive washing methods.

Socks feel itchy or irritating.

Although merino wool is generally soft, individual sensitivity can vary. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the socks are clean. If irritation persists, discontinue use.
