Product Overview
The Under Armour Performance Tech Low Cut Socks are engineered for those who spend significant time on their feet, whether on the sports field or in a high-activity workplace. Sold as a convenient three-pack, these socks are designed to address the common issues of moisture build-up and foot fatigue. By utilizing Under Armour's technical fabric expertise, this product ensures your feet remain cool and supported throughout the day, preventing the discomfort often associated with standard hosiery.
Key Features
- Advanced Moisture Management: The technical fabric wicks sweat away from the skin and dries rapidly, keeping your feet dry and reducing the risk of blisters during long shifts.
- Locked-In Fit: A specifically designed heel construction keeps the sock securely in place, preventing it from sliding down into your footwear and requiring constant adjustment.
- Integrated Arch Support: Built-in support helps to alleviate foot fatigue, providing much-needed relief during extended periods of standing or walking.
- Strategic Cushioning: Medium-density cushioning is placed throughout the foot to provide impact protection without adding excessive bulk to your shoes.
- Breathable Mesh Panels: Top-of-foot mesh panels facilitate airflow, allowing heat to escape and maintaining a comfortable temperature.
- Odour Prevention: Anti-odour technology helps to maintain freshness, a practical necessity for any active professional.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a blend of 98% Polyester and 2% Elastane, these socks offer a lightweight yet durable performance. The high polyester content is essential for its quick-drying properties and resistance to wear, while the elastane provides the necessary stretch for a contoured fit. Unlike standard cotton socks that absorb and retain moisture, this synthetic blend facilitates active evaporation. The low-cut silhouette makes them an excellent choice for use with trainers or low-profile safety shoes, offering a discrete look while providing comprehensive technical benefits.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation for these socks due to the nature of the garment. Applying embroidery or heat-applied prints to a highly elasticated, low-surface-area item like a sock would compromise the fabric's integrity and the wearer's comfort. Embroidery backings would likely cause irritation against the skin, and the constant stretching of the material would lead to the distortion and eventual failure of any printed logo. We believe in providing products that perform perfectly, and in this instance, that means leaving the fabric untouched.
Use Cases
These socks are ideally suited for professionals in the leisure, golf, or sports industries who require high-performance footwear accessories. They are equally beneficial for tradespeople who prefer low-cut footwear during the warmer months and require a sock that can handle the rigours of a physical workday without slipping or causing overheating.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please refer to the specific Under Armour sizing brackets: Medium fits UK 36-42, Large fits 42-47, and Extra Large fits 47-50. Because these socks feature a technical fit design, we recommend choosing the size closest to your standard shoe size to ensure the arch support and heel lock function as intended. They are best worn as a single layer directly against the skin to maximise the moisture-wicking performance.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the technical properties of these socks is straightforward but requires adherence to specific guidelines to ensure longevity. We recommend a cold machine wash with similar colours. Using cold water helps preserve the elastane fibres, preventing the socks from losing their shape or the 'Locked-In' heel fit over time.
It is vital that you do not use fabric softeners. Softeners leave a coating on the fibres that clogs the moisture-wicking pores and breathable mesh, essentially rendering the technical benefits of the sock ineffective. Avoid the use of chlorine bleach, as this will break down the synthetic fibres and cause premature wear. Finally, do not iron or dry clean these items, as high heat will damage the polyester and elastane blend.
