How to Care for Your Apolla Socks: A Comprehensive Guide
We take pride in crafting high-quality socks designed to enhance your performance and comfort. Our socks, with or without grip, are engineered to be durable, antimicrobial, and moisture-wicking. To ensure you get the most out of your Apolla socks, proper care is essential. Here’s a detailed guide on how to launder and maintain your Apolla Socks with grip to preserve their longevity and functionality.
Laundering Your Apolla Socks
General Washing Instructions
Gentle Cycle: Always wash your Apolla socks using the gentle cycle on your washing machine. This helps maintain the integrity of the fabric and the grip.
Low Tumble Dry: After washing, use a low tumble dry setting. This prevents excessive wear and tear on the fibers.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as they can degrade the material and affect the sock’s performance.
Special Care for Socks with Grip
For Apolla socks with grip, a few additional steps can help extend the life of the traction:
Use a Mesh Laundry Bag: Place your socks in the Apolla mesh bag or a similar laundry bag. This step is crucial as it keeps the socks together, minimizes pilling, and helps preserve the traction.
Air Drying: If you prefer, you can hang dry or line dry your socks. This method can further protect the grip and fabric from heat damage.
Wash less frequently: High performance athletes tell us they treat their Apolla Socks more like shoes (due to the anti-microbial properties) and wash them on average once every other week. This helps preserve the life of the grip and the life of the socks. However, if you prefer to wash your socks more frequently, you certainly can. Please note, you may need to refresh your grip a bit more often but it should not impact performance in any way. Find the routine that works best for you!
Frequency of Washing
Thanks to their antimicrobial and moisture-wicking properties, Apolla socks do not require frequent laundering. Many of our testers report washing them every other week. Washing less frequently not only conserves the socks’ traction but also reduces pilling.
