Check the size and the shoe together
Start with the unisex chart for this exact model. Use the size lookup or the whole Point6 size chart to find the published range, then check the heel position, toe room and cuff in your footwear.
The maker does not give a heel-to-cuff measurement. Try the socks with your boots to see whether the cuff sits above the collar. See how sock heights differ.
Try the selected size with the shoes and insoles you plan to use. Added cushioning should not crowd the toes or distort the heel position. The footwear-fit checklist explains what to check.
Care for the exact pair
Be color conscious - be careful washing your white socks with colored laundry Wash in medium temperature water Tumble dry on medium heat. Using cool, lukewarm or medium temperature water on a gentle or medium cycle in your washing machine is recommended. It does not have to be delicate or wool setting. When in doubt just use the regular/medium setting. Other merino wool brands tell you it's a requirement to use a specific detergent. With Point6 you can simply choose you favorite detergent and wash your socks with the rest of your laundry. Never wash your socks with bleach. Tumble-drying your socks on a medium temperature is safe. This will not damage the wool and is actual good for your Point6 socks. When you wear and wash Point6 socks they will stretch. Putting them in the dryer on medium heat helps the sock return to its true size. The sock that Point6 makes has a memory and it returns to its proper size in the dryer. Avoid very hot water and harsh washing machine settings. Avoid dry cleaning. Never iron your socks. Never wash with bleach. Do not wash after every use.
Use the care lookup for this model’s wash and dry directions. A general wool routine should not override instructions for a membrane, a two-layer construction or a specific treatment.
Another sock to compare
