Bamboo fibres – they have unusual ability to breathe and keep cool. Because the cross-section of the bamboo the fiber is filled with various micro-gaps and micro-holes and has much better micro-structure, bamboo socks can absorb and evaporate human sweet in a split second. The bamboo fibers are naturally antibacterial and are praised as “the natural, green and eco-friendly new-type textile material of the 21th sentury”.
Modal – this is a cellulose fiber made by spinning reconstituted cellulose. It’s about 50% more hygroscopic ( water-absorbent) per unit volume than cotton. Socks made from modal & modal mixtures such as Modal-cotton and Modal-PES are resistant to shrinkage & fading and are smooth & soft. Mineral deposits from hard water do not stick to the fibres. Its supple texture, soft look and brilliant silky sheen make Lenzing Modal particulary attractive for socks and underwear.
100% Cotton – is soft, natural fiber that absorbs moisture easily and drawns heat away from the skin to keep cool, making it comfortable to ware. It can absorb up to one fifth of its weight in water before it feels damp. We have developed a special finish of the cotton socks which provides even faster absorbing of the body wet and its leading to the surface where it easily vapours.
Thermolite® – provides warmth and comfort without weight, even when wet. It’s the lightweight material that provides heavy-duty performance since the hollow-core fibres air for greater insulation. Plus your skin remains dry because it absorbs the wet 20@ faster than other similar yarns and 50% faster than cotton.
Prolen® Siltex – Progressive antibacterially modified polypropylene fibres Prolen® Syltex and Prolen® Bodyfresh effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria, funghi and moulds. This way they reduce unpleasant smells, keep a biological balance of the skin and set a hygenic freshness to the product during the whole day. They are harmless for man and the environment.
Teflon® PTFE fluoropolymer – these fibers exhibit none of the cold-flow problems of PTFE films, so they are more stable under extremes of heat and pressure.
The yarns have higher tensile strenght and abrasion resistance than a comparable PTFE film. Moreover the socks made out of Teflon® yarns exhibit also greater chemical and wet resistance than PTFE films.
Cool Cotton Max – Cotton is a soft, natural fiber that absorbs moisture easily and drawns heat away from the skin to keep cool, making it comfortable to ware. It can absorb up to one fifth of its weight in water before it feels damp. We have developed a special finish of the cotton socks which provides even faster absorbing of the body wet and its leading to the surface where it easily vapours.
Sanitized® Silver – a special finish which keeps away the odour and provides long lasting antibacterial protection.
