SMARTWOOL MOUNTAINEERING EXTRA HEAVY SOCKS

The Mountaineer Sock from SmartWool is the ultimate "Summit Sock," designed to provide maximum protection for the severest conditions. In warm or cold weather, SmartWool technology maintains optimum body temperature, while providing superior moisture control. Wicks and evaporates moisture for all-day comfort. Will not itch or shrink – guaranteed.

• Starts with the finest grade of Australian Merino wool (considered the Cashmere of Wool), specially selected and treated with the revolutionary SmartWool process – removing the microscopic ends of the fibers which are the cause of "shrinkage"
• The fibers in the sock contain up to 2,000 porous membranes per inch – when knitted into socks, these tiny membranes create literally millions of microscopic air pockets which are the key to thermo-regulation (temperature control and evaporation of moisture)
• The Merino wool fibers used in SmartWool socks are also longer than other conventional wool sock fibers, this extra length creates a knitted yarn that is itch-free and silky soft to the touch
• Knitted so only 100% wool touches your skin, with stretch nylon and Lycra^® supporting the outside for resilience
• Top: 2 x 1 rib welt top with nylon holds the sock up and in place - high density padding assures a comfortable, snug fit and shin protection
• Ankle Brace: Increased fit above the ankle - prevents slippage, Instep: High density padding protects against lace pressure
• Side Panel: Flat knit reduces compression - provides better fit and maximizes ventilation
• Arch brace: Knit with nylon for increased support and comfort
• Sole: Very high density padding cushions against shock, blisters and abrasions
• Easy care – machine wash and dry
• 100% Guaranteed not to itch or shrink and to outperform all other socks or send them back to Duke Designs within 30 days for your money back
