TECHNOLOGY:
T3: Lorpen is the only brand on the international market that makes socks with 3 layers of different yarns. Each sock has:
- A water-repellent yarn in contact with the skin that repels sweat and keeps the skin dry.
- A hydrophilic yarn on the middle outer section that absorbs sweat, wicks it away from the skin and disperses it for faster drying.
- An resistant outer yarn (usually nylon) that protects areas exposed to friction according to the type and level of activity.
COMPOSITION:
LYOCELL: 100% cellulose fibre. It is biodegradable and environmentally friendly. Lyocell fibres are made from a blend of wood pulp that is dissolved in a non-toxic solvent, NMO (N-Methyl-Morpholine-N-Oxide). The main properties of this fibre are:
- strong resistance when wet or dry
- excellent moisture absorption (superior to cotton or silk)
- great flexibility and fluidity
Modal: Artificial fibre extracted from wood cellulose (usually from the beech). This fibre is 50% more hygroscopic than the cotton, with the same volume. Modal is a kind of soft, silky viscose that retains its properties even after several washes.
