Merino Wool Socks FAQs
Q: How do merino wool socks help prevent blisters?

A: Merino wool naturally reduces friction by removing moisture away from the skin, helping to keep feet dry and comfortable. The soft, fine fibers prevent irritation, while strategically placed cushioning in certain styles provides additional protection against rubbing, making them an excellent choice for hiking, running, and long-distance walking.

Q: Are merino wool socks durable for long-term use?

A: Yes. Merino wool is naturally strong and resilient, and when blended with durable fibers like nylon or elastane, it enhances longevity and shape retention. Reinforced heel and toe areas in many styles add extra durability, making them ideal for repeated wear in demanding conditions.

Q: How often should merino wool socks be washed?

A: Unlike synthetic socks, merino wool resists odor and can be worn multiple times before needing a wash. The frequency depends on activity level and personal preference, but for everyday wear, washing after a few uses is sufficient. Always follow care instructions to maintain quality and performance.
