4 Facts on the Spec Card for the Dry Layer

25 September 2026 · 2 min read

Buying one pair first is not a lack of commitment. It is the correct order of operations.

Start with one pair

If it does not suit you, reply inside fourteen nights and we refund you without asking for it back.

1. What it is

The Day Sock laid flat and square on smooth white card, cuff at the top, a single soft contact shadow

The Day Sock. Closed toe, fragrance free, bonded silicone across the footbed. Nothing infused.

The knit is on the outside, so it wears like any sock. The silicone is on the inside, where the emollient is, so it holds the emollient against the skin instead of blotting it the way cotton does.

2. What it fits

The Day Sock laid on a pale floor beside a small pair of size 4 canvas shoes and a larger pair of size 10 trainers

One size, UK 4 to 10.5. Check your size before ordering.

3. The first step

A single Day Sock on a folded white towel beside a white kitchen timer

One pair is the patch test tier, £25. One sock, one hour, intact skin.

If there is nothing to see after an hour, carry on. If there is, reply to your order email inside fourteen nights and we refund you without asking for it back.

4. If it suits you

Three pairs of the Solen Base Day Sock: one folded on a white shelf, one inside the mesh wash bag on a washing machine, one on a dry airer, all in one flat…

Three pairs is a rotation, not a wash cycle. It goes on over emollient, so it goes in the machine far more often than a normal sock. 40 degrees, mesh bag, no fabric conditioner.

With one pair, the day it is in the wash is a day the emollient goes back under cotton. Three means there is always a clean one.

Before you buy

Not over a prescription steroid unless your doctor has said so. Occlusion increases how much is absorbed.
Not on broken, weeping or infected skin.
Not between the toes. Those spaces stay dry.
