Woof Wear Competition Riding Socks Damson M

Woof Wear Competition Riding Socks – Damson, Medium

These are the socks made for long boots. The knit is deliberately slim and smooth so the fibres do not catch in a boot zip, which is the single most common way a good pair of socks is ruined, and the heel and toe carry bamboo padding for the parts of the foot a stiff competition boot presses on.

Bamboo yarn is the reason they stay fresh: it moves moisture away from the skin and is naturally antibacterial, so a full day at a show does not end with damp feet. Supplied two pairs to a pack in medium, in damson.

Performance & Benefits

• Slim, snag-free knit that runs cleanly past a long boot zip.
• Bamboo padding at the heel and toe, the two pressure points in a competition boot.
• Breathable and naturally antibacterial, so feet stay fresher through a long day.
• Moisture-wicking, which matters more than thickness inside a leather boot.
• Two pairs per pack.

Suitable For

• Long competition and riding boots, where bulk is the enemy.
• Show days, dressage tests and cross country phases.
• Everyday schooling in long boots or gaiters.
• Riders who find thicker socks make a fitted boot tight over the instep.
• Too slim to be a warm winter yard sock — the Woof Wear Long Bamboo Waffle Socks are the thicker, cushioned option for that.

How to Use

• Pull the sock smooth up the calf before zipping a long boot, with no fold under the zip.
• Machine wash at a maximum of 30°C on a gentle spin with non-biological detergent.
• Do not tumble dry and keep them out of strong sunlight; both shorten the life of the elastane.
• Wash the pair together so they wear and fade at the same rate.
