1. Using Steve Jobs' or Elon Musk's name or likeness without their permission will probably get you some attention from their lawyers (Jobs may be dead, but his estate has lawyers).

2. I'm guessing that socks that can't be dried in a dryer would not be very popular among men, especially busy entrepreneurs who don't want to spend extra time dealing with their laundry.

These socks can be dried in a dryer. The designs on it are weaved instead of printing and the material used is premium quality combed cotton. So don't worry, they will remain as it is after every wash :)

Then why does the web site say:

Product Care

Machine Wash in 40 °C / 104 °F

Do Not Bleach, Do Not Tumble Dry

That is a general precaution given with socks. All socks will last longer if you keep them out of the dryer. And, this is true for many other materials like denim, Cashmere, bathing suits, tights etc.

Also, haven't you heard about the phenomenon of dryers eating up socks? ;)
