How do I look after my SealSkinz ?

Washing ...

SealSkinz® can be washed in the machine – but at no more than 40°C. When washed at higher temperatures the adhesive that holds the membrane in place between the inner and the outer layer melts and your sock ‘delaminates’. When this happen your SealSkinz® will rustle – they will also need to be thrown away ...

Drying ...

As with washing, if SealSkinz® are subjected to temperatures over 40°C, or indeed direct heat (such as a radiator, or an iron) then they can delaminate. The best way to dry them, after washing, is to turn them inside out and dry them in the airing cupboard or drip dry overnight.

With a little ‘tlc’ your SealSkinz® should last well – just don’t forget to wear appropriate footwear !
