Bridgedale StormSock Lightweight Ankle Socks
When heading outside in wet, cold and windy conditions, the Bridgedale StormSock will help keep your feet warm, dry and comfortable. Primarily knit from Merino Wool, which is well known for its natural anti-bacterial, anti-odour properties, their lightweight ankle sock has a thin non-cushioned lining that wicks moisture away from your feet. The Nylon outer layer protects the Hydrotech* waterproof and breathable stretch PU membrane against abrasion, while the clever matrix lamination process bonds each layer together for comfort and practicality. Lycra has been knit through every course to give you Bridgedale’s performance fit and, together with the flat toe seam and elastic arch support, ensure the sock remains in place without any hot spots. Designed to fit just a few cm’s above the ankle bone, they are very light and unrestricted, helping to prevent heat building up in your lower leg – perfect for trail running and heading out across wet ground. Outer: 95% Nylon/Polyamide, 5% LYCRA/Elastane Inner: 45% Merino Wool, 45% Polyester, 7.5% Nylon/Polyamide, 2.5% LYCRA/Elastane Membrane: 100% PU *The HydroTech PU membrane allows perspiration to pass to the outer layer of the sock while preventing outside water from getting inside. The Hydrophilic nonporous PU membrane transports perspiration to the outside via solid state diffusion meaning water molecules are carried through the physical membrane as it seeks to maintain heat and humidity equilibrium. This method of moisture transfer does not suffer from foreign object contamination such as mud, dirt and salts from sweat unlike the more common microporous membranes commonly found in waterproof clothing.
