LASTING SWI906 socks Green, EU 42-45

SWI are knee high socks made of the highest quality Australian merino wool, which ensures dry skin and provides excellent thermal insulation and moisture removal. These socks have been designed advanced skiers. The ski sock was specially designed for ski boots and utilizes several bonding layers which create several zones with various properties, thus improving the overall comfort. They have high resistance to wear and tear, and have reinforced areas at the pressure points. These socks also have reinforced zones on the bottom and around the Achilles‘ heel. A large area fitted with a three-layer plush bond protects the shin and calf areas. Merino wool: - Merino wool comes from specially bred sheep living in cold and wet regions. In this harsh nature, sheep produce natural fibers, which man cannot. However they can fortunately process them. These fibers are much finer than traditional wool. Merino wool is silky soft, has a higher insulation ability and is more breathable. Underwear made of long fibers of very fine merino wool, provides the user with comfort and softness. Each fiber is corrugated and elastic, which brings high durability and long service life of the fabric. Thanks to the elasticity of the fiber, woolen clothes do not wrinkle. Wool fibers are highly hydrophilic and have a high absorption capacity. The wool does not melt or burn, it also provides high protection against UV radiation. Its production is environmentally friendly and based on the principle of renewable resources. Insolation and thermoregulation: - Merino wool fabric insulates extremely well. The fiber has a very curly structure, thanks to which millions of tiny air pockets are created, which take care of insulating body heat. Merino wool works according to body temperature in accordance with body thermoregulation. It regulates body temperature by absorbing and releasing moisture. This ensures that your body has the same temperature even when the intensity of movement changes. When it is cold and humid, merino fiber absorbs this moisture and creates so-called sorption heat. In a warm environment, merino wool regulates the temperature through the process of ´´evaporative cooling´´. This is the same as the one our body uses – it releases sweat to cool down. Odor control: - Merino wool has a natural resistance to the growth of microbes and has the ability to repel odor. You can wear merino for many days without a trace of odor. The reason is the combination of wool´s extraordinary ability to absorb moisture and the heterogeneity of fibers with a very rugged surface. The odor is caused by bacteria that prefer an unprotected surface, flat walls, therefore bacteria thrive in synthetic fabrics but not in natural merino wool.
