How fast do these socks dry after being washed in a machine or by hand?

Definitely faster than ordinary cotton socks however I didn't count hours....

I've never timed it, but they dry quickly. I think within an hour - maybe sooner.

I don't know what you are supposed to do but I put them in a laundry bag in put them in the washing machine on cold. My washing machine doesn't have an agitator. They were pretty much dry after the spin cycle.

Yes, but probably best not to dry them by machine. bad for most clothes anyways

about 12-13 hours to air dry. I usually end up throwing them in the dryer in the morning for about 25-30 minutes on extra-high to finish drying them after about 8 hours on the drying rack.

I was them in the machine in cold water and then allow them to dry naturally. Seems to work quite well!

I don't ever let them dry between uses. I typically do my laundry all in one day. So I use them back to back. I have been using them for 3 months now and I have had no problem or complaints doing It this way.

Agreed - hand wash and dry. I wouldn't use them frequently though, maybe just one more time.

I wash in warm water and dry them on the lowest setting. My dryer has an automatic sensor so I let it determine the time. Occasionally I have to run them through the dryer a second time but not often. They do fine that way.

Wash well in the machine - no shrinking. I hang them to dry. Very nice non-slip socks!!

Iv washed them in the hottest water possible. And with a about a cup of bleach in a large load in a normal size washer. They hold up ok. They shrink a little in the dryer, but I air dry all my cloths any way to save energy. It's a good buy but The socks are thin, there not warm

I throw mine in the washing machine with the underwear, warm wash, gentle cycle. You're supposed to lay it flat to dry, but it holds a lot of water even after a gentle spin dry; so I put the whole load in the dryer for maybe 10 minutes on medium-low heat, to fluff it and let the other items absorb some of the moisture. Then when it's partially dry, I take it out and lay it flat. Seems to work well--after several months I have not yet seen any sign of aging from the dryer. Update: I've been using these for over a year now. The only change I've made is, I've gotten a drying rack; so instead of laying it flat when it's partially dry, I drape it over the rack. After a year, they're still soft, supple, and lie flat.

I have not had any problems so far with the socks shrinking. They've been washed and dried probably about 5 or 6 times.

I think so, but I just wash them by hand, after using...and stand them up to dry.

I have washed them with my colored clothes, warm water, cold rinse, low dryer. These are not really tight socks, if you really need good compression, these are not it.

I am not sure I have only hand washed them to make sure they are clean and air dried them.

I wash them in the machine, under "sterilization." It works well. I do NOT dry them. I let them air-dry.

I don't, but then I wash my socks with cool water and only dry them a little bit in the dryer. They last longer that way and don't shrink.
