TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS

Limits the risk of irritation

Friction, caused by exercise, is absorbed by the interaction between the inner and outer layers of the socks, instead of being transferred to the outer layers of the skin. Less heating. These socks cannot provide full protection from blisters. Blisters usually appear when our skin is weakened by chafing, caused by our socks, foreign bodies or feet weakened by damp.

Characteristics of the threads

The inner sock is made from 100% polypropylene. Its thermal conductivity is the lowest of all fibres, and therefore it keeps your feet at a constant temperature. Its damp absorption rate is low and therefore it quickly wicks away perspiration out of the sock, your feet will not feel damp. The polyamide in the outer sock dries quickly to improve moisture management.

How to choose the height of your socks

We have produced 3 heights of hiking socks. "Short" socks that reach over your shoes but remain under the ankle. The “mids" are slightly higher than your ankle to protect it. These 2 heights are designed to be worn with low shoes. "High" socks are ideal with hiking boots as they are slightly lower than the calf.

Choose the right size of hiking socks

Our socks are available in 4 different shoe sizes (3/5.5, 6/8,8.5/11.5, 12, 14). We use elastane in all our socks, so that they fit closely to your feet and remain in place. We all have feet of different lengths, proportions and sizes: to do this, it is important to try your hiking socks in the store before buying them. Also try out your socks before going on a long hike
