Description

Socks for hiking in very cold weather. Enjoy snowy spaces with this technical and warm model. The properties of wool Thanks to its fine structure and its irregular, scaly surface, which allows it to store a lot of air and through which water vapour can diffuse, wool has unique properties in terms of moisture management and thermal regulation. Its ability to store and release moisture, as well as its cushioning effect, make it an insulating and comfortable material, suitable for hiking socks. What is merino wool? The merino sheep, originally from Spain, is a breed carefully selected over generations for its wool. It provides a softer fibre than traditional wool. After shearing, the merino wool is cleaned of impurities, carded, spun and, finally, used for knitting. What are the advantages of merino wool? Merino wool offers an incomparable experience: soft, light and breathable. Thanks to the fineness of its fibres, it naturally guarantees comfortable thermal regulation. It keeps feet warm when it is cold and cool when it is hot. How to dress properly for hiking on snow? To be well equipped in winter, we advise you to apply the following principles: Warmth: provision of warmth through warm socks (ideally with an appropriate % of wool) Breathability: Choose socks according to the intensity of the hike and, in particular, choose breathable models to limit moisture. Shaft height: adapt the length of the sock to the height of the shaft and choose long models if you want more protection.
