These Smartwool running socks in black are a must - have for runners. They are low - ankle height, providing a sleek look and great mobility. The targeted cushioning is designed to offer support exactly where you need it most during your runs. With Indestructawool™ technology, these socks have extended durability zones, ensuring they can withstand the rigors of regular running. The 4 Degree™ elite fit system gives you a precise, performance - oriented fit. Mesh zones are added for enhanced breathability, keeping your feet cool and dry. The Virtually Seamless™ toe design boosts comfort, reducing irritation. An Achilles tab stops the sock from slipping into your footwear. Made in the USA from imported yarn, they are composed of 54% Merino Wool, 41% Nylon, 2% Recycled Nylon, and 3% Elastane. Note that the specific percentage of Recycled Nylon will change as we move towards 100% Recycled Nylon in future seasons.

Using these Smartwool running socks is easy. Just put them on like any other pair of socks before your run. For best results, make sure your feet are clean and dry. As for care, you can machine - wash them in cold water. Use a gentle cycle to preserve the quality of the fabric and the integrity of the cushioning. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners as they can damage the fibers. Hang them to dry instead of using a dryer, as high heat can shrink the socks. These socks are built to last, but if you notice any signs of wear, it might be time to replace them.
