Thermal socks Lorpen SNK Thermolite Nordic Ski

Lorpen SNK Thermolite Nordic Ski is a sock for cross-country skiing.
Two-layer polyamide zones in the forefoot area increase durability and protection in areas of increased friction between the sock and the boot.
The thermal insulation properties of Thermolite fibre keep your feet warm and dry, even after long runs on skis.
SNK Thermolite Nordic Ski is suitable for wearing with medium-height boots.
Ideal use:  cross-country skiing, high physical activity in the outdoors at low temperatures.

Technology of of thermal socks Lorpen SNK Thermolite Nordic Ski
T2 is a technology for technical socks with two differentiated layers of yarn with different fibre types to provide optimal performance for athletes, allowing for a combination of reinforcement and ventilation zones in different areas of the same sock.
The inner layer of Thermolite provides comfort, softness and warmth, and responds quickly to overheating or hypothermia.
The outer layer of nylon and lycra protects the feet from calluses and abrasions, prevents the feet from slipping in shoes and increases the wear resistance of the socks.

Materials
Thermolite ®
A very lightweight fibre, hollow in the centre, developed by Invista Advansa, its main property is to retain body heat like a thermos and to wick moisture away from the skin surface to the outside thanks to its water-repellent properties.
In the event of overheating during intense physical activity (with active sweating), Thermolite®, thanks to its structure, helps moisture to leave the skin surface instantly and evaporate from the surface. In this way, Thermolite® reacts quickly to overheating or hypothermia, acting as a kind of "thermoregulator".
Nylon
Nylon, or polyamide, is the world's first synthetic fibre.
Its most outstanding feature is its exceptional strength, resistance to abrasion and water 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 add strength and elasticity.
Lycra ®
It is very important for socks to be able to take the anatomical shape of any foot size, without forming 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.
