Woolpower Sock Protection 400

The socks have excellent insulating functions and retain heat even when wet. They absorb and transport perspiration away from the skin without losing their function of heat retention. Socks have terry knit feet and shafts. Flame resistant.

Socks Protection 400 have been created for professional use in challenging environments. They are certified in accordance with specific EN standards for flame protection. For maximum protection we recommend that you use a complete layer one set together with other certified outer layers.

The fabric is circular knitted and therefore has very few seams that can chafe. Seams are always the weakest link in a garment, so our clothes are very durable. Socks Protection 400 provide optimal insulation and keep you warm even when they are wet. The socks are made from our own Ullfrotté Original fabric both in the foot and the shaft.

Wool is nature’s own functional fabric and so far, no man-made fibres have been able to replicate all the unique qualities of wool. The fabric doesn’t smell bad if you sweat, for example. What’s more, it keeps you dry as the wool can absorb up to 30 per cent of its own weight in moisture without even feeling damp. But if you really get wet, the socks keep you warm anyway. It’s because of a chemical process within the wool called absorption heat. Socks Protection 400 can be washed at 60 degrees.
