Keep your compression socks supportive, firm, and long-lasting with proper washing care. Hand washing is the preferred method to maintain maximum elasticity—use cold to lukewarm water and mild detergent, and rinse gently. If machine washing, place them in a mesh bag and choose a delicate cycle, avoiding bleach and softeners.
Heat is the biggest threat to compression fibers, so never tumble dry, iron, or wring the socks. Instead, air dry them flat on a clean surface, away from sunlight or heaters to prevent stretching or fabric damage. Wash after every full day of wear to maintain hygiene and prevent sweat buildup from weakening the fibers. Store your socks unfolded in a cool, dry place to preserve their shape and compression level.
Following these simple care steps ensures your compression socks stay effective, comfortable, and durable for daily use.
