Description
Unisex quarter length cushioned running sock made with fine merino wool yarn. Knitted on a 160 needle machine in a family run factory in the Scottish highlands. The fabric and construction gives the sock a high level of cushioning and support, with excellent moisture management, durability and temperature regulation in hot and cold climates. Recommended for all types of running.
Key Features
- Moisture wicking
Merino wool fibres can absorb large quantities of moisture vapour then move it away to evaporate into the air. The inner core of the fibres attracts water and moves it away from skin as the outer layer repels water. In addition the top of sock is constructed with less merino wool yarn, to increase moisture wicking.
- Thermo Regulating
Merino wool fabric has natural loft that traps heat very effectively between fibres, insulating and keeping your feet warm in cooler conditions. In warmer conditions the socks keep you cool by the excellent moisture wicking capability of merino wool fibres, moving sweat away from your body and allowing it to evaporate.
- Antimicrobial
The natural engineering of Merino Wool resists the growth of odour causing bacteria. These merino wool socks don’t need to be washed as often or as rigorously as synthetics. Airing your Merino overnight will usually freshen it for the following day.
- Durable
Socks have been knitted in Scotland by a highly experienced team. A 168 needle machine is used to produce a high stitch count, giving a denser, smoother and more durable fabric. 23 micron merino wool fibres are combined with nylon to increase strength and durability of socks.
- Elite Comfort
Merino wool fibres are much finer and softer than wool and other synthetic fibres. The bottom of the sock contains more of the extra fine merino wool fabric providing cushioning and impact protection, with adding bulk.
