Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle up to 30°C with similar colours to preserve the bold pigments.
• Hang the socks to dry naturally to maintain the integrity of the elastic fibres and prevent potential shrinkage.
• Avoid the use of a tumble dryer, as high heat can compromise the polyurethane stretch and nylon reinforcements.
• Wash the socks inside out to protect the soft cotton surface and the printed branding from abrasion.
• Do not iron or bleach, as these treatments can damage the delicate knit structure and fade the border stripe pattern.

Our Beams Plus Rib Border Socks FAQs

1. What is a "border" sock?
   This refers to the horizontal stripe pattern, a classic design element in 1950s and 60s American sportswear and varsity apparel.

2. Will these socks slip down during the day?
   No, the high-quality Japanese rib knit is specifically designed to provide a secure grip on the leg without being overly tight.

3. Are they thick enough for winter?
   While primarily a year-round cotton blend, the density of the knit provides a cosy feel that works well in most seasonal conditions.

4. Where is the branding located?
   The Beams Plus logo is subtly printed on the bottom of the foot, maintaining a clean look when the socks are worn with shoes.
