Ingeo™
Ingeo™ fiber is the first man-made fiber derived from
100% natural, annually renewable resources like corn. It has low odor retention,
offering the wearer optimum comfort, confidence and freshness. It is soft to
the hand and feels natural against the skin. Ingeo’s excellent wicking
properties transport moisture away from the foot. It dries very quickly, has
superior low pilling performance, does not cause allergic reaction in third-party
testing, and does not support bacterial proliferation. When products made of
Ingeo™ come to the end of their useful life they can be returned to the
earth without any negative impact on the environment unlike the problematic petroleum
based products.
Merino Wool
Merino takes the itch out of wool. Merino
wool fiber is so fine that five strands equal the width of a human hair. Its
long silky fibers guarantee a wool sock that won’t itch. In addition to comfort, wool is nature’s
technical fiber. Wool is the most hydrophilic of all natural fibers, absorbing
as much as 30 percent of its weight without feeling wet. Besides being a natural
wicking fiber, wool doesn’t attract dirt because it is an anti-static fiber.
Merino Wool socks also retain its soft feel, wash after wash.
Silk
Silk is a natural fiber that does not conduct heat and is a
natural thermal retainer. It is luxuriously soft and durable and moves moisture
well.
Cotton
Cotton is hypoallergenic meaning it doesn't irritate sensitive
skin or cause allergies. Cotton breathes, so it is cool to wear. Cotton does
not contain any chemicals and therefore is a natural product. Cotton is a renewable
resource, and it's also biodegradable.
Supplex Nylon
Supplex is a Dupont certified nylon fabric
which has a soft cotton-like hand with high water and wind resistant properties,
high abrasion and tear resistant. Supplex manages moisture and keeps its vibrant
color, wash after wash.
