How do you care for your sustainable socks from the Postcode Loterij?

Our sustainable socks are designed to last, but with proper care, you can extend their lifespan even further. Here are some tips to keep your socks in the best possible condition:

Washing and drying

1. Always wash your socks inside out to protect the color and design.
2. Use a detergent suitable for delicate garments and avoid bleach or other harsh chemicals that can damage the fibers of your socks.
3. Although our socks are machine washable, we recommend washing them at a low temperature to prevent shrinkage.
4. Avoid using the dryer. Instead, let your socks air dry. This helps maintain their shape and elasticity.

Malfunctioning and extending the shelf life

1. Store your socks in a dry and dark place to prevent discoloration from sunlight.
2. Always put your socks on and take them off carefully to prevent the fibers from stretching or tearing.
3. Try to rotate your socks regularly. Constantly wearing and washing the same pair of socks can lead to faster wear and tear.
4. With these simple tips, you can ensure that your sustainable socks from the Postcode Lottery last as long as possible, so you can continue to enjoy their comfort and style.
