FAQs
Are these socks left and right specific?
Yes, they feature an anatomical design specifically shaped for left and right feet to provide a better fit.
Can I tumble dry these socks?
It is recommended to air dry them to maintain the elasticity and performance of the synthetic fibers.
What material are they made of?
They are composed of 97% nylon and 3% spandex for a blend of durability and necessary stretch.
Do they provide arch support?
Yes, they include built-in arch support for a snug, supportive fit.
Are these suitable for sports other than football?
While designed for football, the moisture-wicking properties make them excellent for any high-intensity field sport.
Troubleshooting
Sock slipping down during gameplay
Ensure the socks are pulled up correctly with the fold-over cuff adjusted above the shin guard for maximum grip.
Feeling too tight around the calf
Verify the size is correct for your foot; if they feel overly restrictive, avoid folding the cuff too many times to reduce pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Academy Socks maintain their shape and moisture-wicking properties, adhere to these care guidelines:
- Compatibility: These are knee-length performance socks designed to be worn with shin guards. The fold-over cuff allows for adjustment based on your personal shin guard height.
- Washing: Machine wash in cold or warm water with like colors. Avoid using bleach, which can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to preserve the elasticity of the nylon and elastane blend. If using a dryer, select a low-heat setting to avoid damaging the synthetic moisture-wicking properties.
- Storage: Fold them naturally or roll them to prevent over-stretching the ribbed cuff.
