Materials
Cotton
Cotton is a very strong and durable fabric. It is made from the fruit of the cotton plant, the longer the fibres, the better and more expensive the fabric is.
Cotton has a high moisture capacity, dries slowly, warms poorly and is breathable, which makes it suitable for summer wear.
The fabric is very light and soft to the touch, pleasant to the body, and most importantly, it does not cause allergic reactions.
Nylon
Nylon, or polyamide, is the world's first synthetic fibre.
Its most prominent feature is its exceptional strength, abrasion and water resistance and, as a result, high durability, 10 times that of cotton and 20 times that of wool, and it is also stronger than polyester.
In the production of socks, nylon is usually blended with other materials to give strength and elasticity.
In Lorpen socks, a nylon layer is used for extreme loads, located over the entire area, and for moderate loads - in friction zones.
The strategic placement of nylon in the outer layer of the socks guarantees a long service life.
Lycra ®
It is very important for socks to be able to take the anatomical shape of the foot of any size, without the formation of folds that lead to chafing on the feet.
Lycra is the best elastane yarn on the market, the material of Lorpen socks contains up to 10% stretch nylon with lycra.
The elasticity of Lorpen socks is provided by stretch nylon, with an inner elastane layer and a nylon coating.
The percentage and quality of stretch nylon determines the high elasticity and durability of the new sock.
That is why Lorpen socks retain their fit even after prolonged use and numerous washes.
That is why Lorpen socks retain their snugness even after prolonged use and numerous washings.
