Ortovox Alpinist Pro Comp Mid M Safety Blue 39-41 Socks

Comfortable, technical merino socks for long alpine tours.

• Gentle, even compression
• Ergonomic fit
• Padding and cushioning at sensitive points

Check it out, high-alpine tourers: ALPINIST PRO COMP MID SOCKS are ideal for long ascents and indispensable on multi-day alpine tours.

The gentle, graduated compression effect between the calf and ankle facilitates the supply of oxygen-rich blood to the muscles, thus preventing premature fatigue. The ALPINIST PRO COMP MID SOCKS fit perfectly thanks to their ergonomic right/left fit, while their flat construction prevents creasing and pressure. Elastic cuffs and a stabilizing zone at the ankles stop the socks slipping. And the toe seam is kept flat to prevent blisters, while padding in the heel and toe areas ensures they are comfortably cushioned. And a 360-degree webbing system on the foot makes these socks especially breathable.

The benefits of merino wool really come into their own in socks, because it naturally regulates moisture and temperature. And later, in the hut, your long-suffering friends will be delighted to discover that merino wool also neutralizes unpleasant odors. The ALPINIST PRO COMP MID SOCKS are thus the perfect companions on long, demanding alpine tours.

MERINO WOOL

Since 1995, merino wool has been an integral component of ORTOVOX’s mountainwear. The merino wool comes from selected farms that comply with own wool standard: the ORTOVOX WOOL PROMISE. ORTOVOX obtains its virgin wool from verfied and ethical sheep farms. These farms are regularly monitored within the framework of the OWP. The wool is naturally 100% ecological and therefore super sustainable. Thanks to the small-diameter fibers in its fine woolen threads, merino wool feels extremely soft and comfortable on the skin. In addition to comfort, merino wool also provides an ideal personal body climate by regulating both moisture and temperature. It is also easy to care for and, thanks to its antibacterial effect, odor neutralizing.
