Frequently Asked Questions About ArmaSkin Anti-Blister Socks
Q: How do ArmaSkin socks prevent blisters?
A: The inner silicone layer of ArmaSkin socks grips your skin to prevent friction, while the smooth outer layer reduces friction with your outer sock. This dual-layer technology effectively eliminates the skin shear that causes blisters.
Q: Are ArmaSkin socks suitable for hot climates?
A: Absolutely! ArmaSkin socks are designed to wick away sweat and regulate temperature, keeping your feet cool and dry even in hot and humid conditions.
Q: Can ArmaSkin socks be worn with any type of shoe?
A: Yes, ArmaSkin socks are versatile and can be worn with all types of shoes, including hiking boots, running shoes, and casual footwear. They are designed to fit comfortably inside any outer sock and shoe combination.
Q: Can I wear ArmaSkin socks on their own without an outer sock?
A: ArmaSkin socks are designed to be worn as a liner underneath your regular socks. Wearing them without an outer sock may reduce their durability and effectiveness.

Q: Can the socks retain their tackiness after being submerged in water?
A: Yes, the socks will retain their tackiness and effectiveness even after being fully submerged in water.
Q: Is the adhesive safe for sensitive skin?
A: The sticky nature of ArmaSkin does not come from glue or adhesives. Instead, it uses medical-grade silicone, which is completely safe for sensitive skin.
Q: I feel the seam under the heel when wearing my ArmaSkin socks. Is this normal?
A: It’s crucial to position the heel seams correctly around your heel. Please refer to our Use of ArmaSkin section for guidance.
The seams are designed to lie flat, but they can be adjusted if needed. The inner silicone surface prevents slipping against the skin, and the elastic material allows you to reposition the sock for comfort.
If repositioning the seams leaves slight slack at the toes, it’s perfectly fine to have up to a centimetre of loose fabric at the front. It will not affect performance.
Q: What if the size I choose is incorrect?
A: Before returning your ArmaSkin socks, please refer to our YouTube video on how to properly wear them. The socks must be rolled on, not pulled on like traditional socks.
If you still need an exchange, you can return them with clear instructions about the reason for the return, along with your address.
