X-Socks Light Trekking Merino Socks

X-Socks Merino Trekking Light are absolute high-tech socks that take advantage of all the positive characteristics of merino wool. They are extremely comfortable to wear and protect sensitive areas from pressure and friction by means of a sophisticated protector system. The sophisticated ventilation system keeps your feet pleasantly dry for a long time, even in warm temperatures and during physical exertion. The effective transfer of moisture significantly reduces the risk of blisters. The special material mixtures reduce the drying time and merino wool prevents the development of unpleasant odours.

• Air-Conditioning Channel: Conducts air away from the anatomically shaped footbed via the inside surface of the foot and thus ensures that moist,overheated air is pumped out of even tight fitting shoes with every movement. 
• {Air Guides:false}: Function like spacers along the AirConditioning Channel® and effectively support the continuous circulation of fresh air. 
• Instep Protector The Instep Protector cushions and acts as a shock-absorber, significantly reducing the incidence of painful pressure points and scraping, bruising and blistering. 
• Stretching Rib: Provides maximum elasticity and ideal fit, and air can easily circulate along the ribs. 
• Toe Protector: Guards against blisters and chafing. 
• ToeTip Protector: Asymmetrical impact-absorbing protectors made of hollow-core Robur™ fibers cushion and protect toes at the pressure-sensitive tips. 
• Anatomically shaped footbed For “L”-left and “R”-right foot with integrated AirConditioning Channel®. 
• Traverse AirFlow Channel System: Regulates the temperature of the sole of the foot and conducts moist and overheated air into the AirConditioning Channel. 
• Heel Protector: Guards against pressure and friction. 
• X-Cross® Bandage: The unique crossover ankle bands, knit of elastic materials, give stressed tendons, muscles and joints secure hold and stability without limiting freedom of movement. 
• Rod-Type Paddings: The rod-type structure of the padding allows air to move, so in the case of an impact, the pressure is not transferred to the skin, but escapes to the sides. This way the shock is not only buffered in one direction, but three ways and in three directions.
• Lambertz-Nicholson Achilles Tendon Protector: Thanks to its highly abrasion-resistant and impact-absorbing material, the protector protects the Achilles tendons from pressure points and friction from the top of the shoe. The sensitive Achilles tendons aren't stressed because they are encased in the cushioning pod. 
• Self-adjusting cuff (Socks): Adapts to any size leg without slipping or constricting. 
• AirCool Stripes: Knit like a fine net of air permeable Mythlan™. This results in cooling ventilation on the soles of the feet. 
• AirFlow AnklePads: Ankle bones are often scraped up during falls since they jut out from the sides of the legs. The crescent-moon-shaped alignment of the pads offers the best possible protection without affecting the ventilation ability of the AirConditioning Channel®.
