[ IN DEVELOPMENT ]

Tarsal Softwear specimens are being formulated. No specimens are currently available in this category. Complete your Intake for a prognosis — the prescription will reference this category when specimens are ready.

[ DIAGNOSTIC ]

The prescription, explained.

What is this?

Tarsal Softwear is the SOME DOSE category for foot and ankle wearables — socks, ankle wraps, and foot coverings for the tarsal region. The tarsal zone is the furthest point from the cognitive centre, which means its sensory Itch is routinely under-diagnosed. Coarse sock fabric, synthetic fibres, and elastic cuffs at the ankle are among the most common chronic low-grade irritants.

Who is it for?

Prescribed for those who report discomfort with synthetic socks, elastic bands at the ankle, or seamed toe boxes. Also for those who are cold from the ground up — a thermally-misregulated pattern common in people who over-correct with heavy footwear rather than regulating at the sock layer.

What does it cost?

Tarsal specimens are priced from €30 to €95, EUR, VAT included. Made-to-order specimens ship within three to four weeks. In-stock specimens ship from Ireland within two business days.

How does it work?

Tarsal specimens are sized to EU foot length. Fiber content and knit density affect warmth and texture independently — both are listed per product. See the wool care protocol at /care/wool for Merino tarsal specimen washing instructions.

[ FAQ ]

Common questions.

What is Tarsal Softwear?

Tarsal Softwear is SOME DOSE's category for foot and ankle wearables. The tarsus is the cluster of seven bones forming the ankle and mid-foot. As the most distal major region of the lower limb, the tarsal zone is the last to receive prescriptive attention — yet coarse sock knit, nylon content, and elastic cuffs at this region are among the most common daily Itch triggers.

What fiber is used in Tarsal specimens?

Tarsal specimens use fine-gauge Merino wool (17–20 microns), organic cotton jersey, or cotton-linen blends depending on intended season and climate. Merino is the primary specification for temperature-regulation and itch-avoidance simultaneously. Nylon content is minimised or eliminated. Fiber content and knit density are listed per product.

How should Tarsal specimens be cared for?

Merino tarsal specimens follow the wool care protocol — machine wash wool cycle at 30°C or cold hand-wash, no tumble drying, dry flat or on a rack. Do not use biological detergent — enzymes attack protein fibers. Full procedure at /care/wool. Cotton tarsal specimens tolerate 40°C machine wash, inside out.
