The silicone zones help your feet grip the inside of your skates, but they can also create resistance when putting your skates on.
To make it easier:
- Loosen the laces farther down the skate and pull the tongue forward to create a wider opening.
- Lightly dampen the socks’ silicone grip zones with a little water.
- Guide your toes into the skate, then lower your heel into place.
- Adjust the tongue and lace up as usual.
A little moisture is enough — there’s no need to soak the socks.
