A calf length sock designed for expedition use in the coldest of conditions, and tested above 8000m.
The ultimate sock for high altitude expedition use. Designed for hard shell mountaineering footwear and extended cold weather activities in extreme environments. Hand sewn and designed with specific left and right foot anatomical shapes for precise fit. The materials and construction process provide the perfect combination of elasticity, support, and warmth.
Two layers of Polartec® Power Stretch on the outer layer of the sock provide warmth without increasing weight. The smooth outer layer is wind- and abrasion-resistant; the soft inner layer pulls moisture away from your skin keeping you dry, warm and comfortable.The inner layer of Primaloft® Yarn is made up of ultra-fine polyester fibres which are finer than cashmere, resulting in a luxuriously soft feel while providing unparalleled moisture wicking. When walking, climbing or doing any aerobic activity, your body works up a sweat and emits heat and perspiration, but when you suddenly sit idle, you can easily start to freeze with an insulation that absorbs water. Primaloft® fibres wick moisture away from the skin and trap body heat.
Made from Polartec® Powerstretch® and Primaloft® Footwear Insulation.
