I wear them once, with boots, and maybe walk towards the boots, from the room to the anteroom, and when I come back I take them off. They have blackish spots on the soles, and however hard I try and wash, and use washing powders and liquids, the greyish tints still stay.
How can I wash them to make them absolutely white, as before?
I do not want to add any whitening liquids, as there is a black logo
on the sides.

Biz is the answer! I had a whole bunch of socks and shirts that were once white but turned grey/brown with use and after a cycle with Biz they looked brand new. It is a detergent that you can buy in most stores that carry the basics (Walmart and such). It has instructions on the box. You can pretreat, soak, or just pour some in a normal load. Plus it can make your coloreds more brilliant, too!

do you have hard water? Have you tried bizz or something similar. I used to have a bucket full of bizz in the laundry room and dirty socks went into the bucket and I would wash them a couple times a week. Vinegar or ammonia are also good whiteners. Try bleach on one sock, it may not hurt the logo, but will shorten the life of the sock.

I would try bleach as it will probably not affect the black logo--you could also put thick masking tape over the logo parts and then lightly dip the rest of the socks in bleach (with you wearing gloves of course)--you could also apply bleach to the other portions of your socks with a brush-any size...again wear gloves--and maybe safety goggles...

You could try Oxy Clean (or the generic brand.) Add a scoop or two for brighter whites.

Go to the paint store and get some "Pristine white" paint. After painting your socks, go out and paint the town.
