Choosing business socks for hot Australian days

Feet feel damp in business shoes on hot days? Start with the fabric, fit and shoes you wear to work. Then compare the full price.

Look for moisture-wicking fabric

Dave's Socks uses 70% bamboo and 30% COOLMAX in both colours. The socks are designed to help keep feet dry in business shoes.

COOLMAX is a fibre that moves sweat away from your skin so it can dry faster. Read the blend on each product you compare. A fibre name alone does not tell you whether a sock will fit your foot or suit your shoes.

Check the fit with your work shoes

Try socks with the shoes you actually wear. Check for crowding around the toes, fabric bunching under the foot and a cuff that feels comfortable when you sit and move.

Dave's Socks comes in one size. Both colours measure the same when unworn, laid flat and without stretching:

  • Heel to toe: 19 cm.
  • Heel to bottom of cuff: 15 cm.
  • Heel to top of cuff: 20 cm.

Lay a sock you already find comfortable beside a ruler. Compare the same points. These are flat measurements, not a shoe-size chart.

Ask us about fit if you are unsure.

Choose black or navy

Pick Onyx Black or Midnight Navy to suit your wardrobe. Both use the same fabric blend. Our colour guide has simple examples.

Plan for washing

Machine wash with your normal load, then tumble dry or line dry. No mesh bag or special detergent needed. Just skip the bleach. Want them to last even longer? Wash cold in a mesh bag, line dry or tumble dry low, and fold rather than roll.

Keep enough pairs for washing and drying between workdays. See the full care guide.

Compare the delivered cost

One pair costs A$19.95 with standard Australian shipping. Five pairs cost A$39.95 with free standard Australian shipping. Mix both colours if that suits your week.

Compare fit, care and total cost with other socks you are considering. Choose what works for your feet, shoes and budget.
