    It could be your shoes doing it. What I do is use a bar of sard wonder soap, I wet the soap and the socks, put one sock on each hand and give them a good lather, keep the soap suds on and throw them in the wash. The pilling (all those balls on the socks) can be removed with a de-baller which is a little battery operated hand held doover.

      There are non battery ones. Love mine. Also consider laundry liquid with eucalyptus in it.

      Yeah these are my tennis socks but how the dirt? I’m confused about that one. I’ll give sard soap a go. I bought the Napisan on your recommendation a few months ago. Will that work?

      My housemate recently got a de-linter? from Temu so I will give that a go as well 😄 thx CEO!!

        Napisan will work. Just make a small paste by adding a bit of water and scrub like I said.

        They get dirty because the inside of your shoes plus sweat equals filthy socks. Even though you might be playing on a hard or clay court you’ll still get dust inside your shoe.

            You can have white socks but you gotta follow two simple rules. 1. Buy Sards wonder soap and use it. 2. Don’t wash white socks with coloured clothes.
