Babies' Cuddle Buddies Ankle Socks-3 Pack

To maintain the structural integrity and performance of your socks, it is essential to follow professional care guidelines grounded in textile science. Adhering to these recommendations will significantly extend their lifespan and ensure a consistent fit

Washing Procedures

• Turn Socks Inside Out: This method minimizes surface abrasion, which can cause pilling and fading. Studies show that washing textiles inside out can reduce fiber-to-fiber friction by up to 80%, preserving the sock's aesthetic finish.
• Machine Wash Cold: Use a cold-water cycle (below 86°F / 30°C). Washing in cold water prevents irreversible fiber damage and is proven to significantly reduce energy consumption by up to 90% compared to a warm wash.
• Avoid Bleach and Softeners: Chemical additives like chlorine bleach can break down the polymer chains in elastic and synthetic fibers, leading to a permanent loss of stretch and form. Fabric softeners can leave a residue that reduces the material’s moisture-wicking properties.

Drying Procedures

• Air Dry Preferred: Air drying is the optimal method for maintaining fabric integrity. High heat from tumble drying can cause synthetic fibers to shrink and weaken, potentially reducing the lifespan of elastic materials by up to 50%.
• Tumble Dry Low: If machine drying is necessary, select a low-heat or air-fluff setting to mitigate heat-related damage and fiber degradation.
