FAQs

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Karrimor, typically based on shoe size and/or calf circumference. Measure your calf to ensure an accurate fit.

How should I wash my compression socks?

Machine wash with similar colours in cold water. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners. Air dry the socks to maintain their compression and elasticity.

Can I wear these socks for other sports?

Yes, these socks can be worn for various sports and activities where compression and support are beneficial, such as hiking, cycling, or gym workouts.

How long should I wear compression socks after a run?

Many users find it beneficial to wear compression socks for 2-4 hours after a run to aid in recovery. Some people wear them overnight.

What is the material composition of the socks?

The socks are made from 41% Tactel, 34% Nylon, 10% Cotton, 10% Polyester, and 5% Elastane.

Are these socks suitable for sensitive skin?

While the material blend is generally suitable for most users, those with very sensitive skin should test the socks for a short period before extended wear or consult a dermatologist.

What is the benefit of graduated compression?

Graduated compression provides the most compression at the ankle and gradually decreases up the calf. This helps improve blood flow, reduce swelling, and decrease muscle fatigue.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. Review the size chart and try a larger size if necessary. Compression socks should feel snug, but not constricting.

Socks slip down during runs.

Make sure the socks are pulled up correctly and that they fit snugly around the calf. Consider trying a different size or brand if the issue persists.

Socks become stretched or lose compression.

Follow the care instructions carefully. Avoid tumble drying, as heat can damage the elastic fibres. Replace the socks if they no longer provide adequate compression.
