S.F.P. - SOLDIERS FOR PEACE - Extreme comfort outdoor gear

- cotton

A lightweight, moisture absorbing fiber. No other fabric offers the comfort and feel of nature's own fiber. It's breathable, washable and biodegradable too.
Combed cotton - A cotton yarn that goes through an additional "combing," process so that only the longer fibers remain. This improves the softness and strength of the yarn.
Acrylic - a man made fiber that provides softness and warmth with little weight, and high durability. Acrylic's inherent properties allow it to hold brighter and more brilliant colors than its natural fiber counterparts.
Nylon (POLYAMIDE) - a very strong, versatile, hard wearing fiber. Socks made of nylon can be thin and silky or bulky and highly elastic. Nylon is often used with other fibers to give added stretch or to improve durability.
Stretch Nylon - Nylon strands that are air-entangled or crimped to provide elasticity. It is used to achieve stretch and recovery.

The original, easy care fiber. Each wool fiber is made up of millions of "coiled springs," that stretch in use, but coil back to their original positions.
It features inherent qualities such as wrinkle resistance, colorfastness, shape recovery (resiliency) and it breathes with your body. It can be knit in various weights to provide increasing levels of insulation for every temperature. Wool yarn, when knit into a thicker sock, tends to be bulky and lofty. Air becomes entrapped and it becomes an ideal insulator. Wool socks also keep feet drier because wool absorbs as much as 30% of its own weight before it begins to feel damp.

A special, fine grade of wool that originally came from Merino sheep. It has all of the characteristics classic to wool that are listed above, but what makes Merino wool different is the luxurious softness and comfort provided by the fine diameter Merino fibers. Unlike traditional wool, Merino wool does not itch and is shrink-treated to hold its size and shape even after repeated washings.

Amicor performs to maintain a just-washed freshness for the life of our socks which include this technology. It's also the gentlest and most thorough approach to reducing microbes in our products and contains anti-bacterial as well as anti-fungal additives that prevent odour and help reduce allergens.

Isolwool actively prevents the growth of odour - forming bacteria. Surface of the fibre continually replenished to maintain performance. Keeps your feet fresh and in better health.

Professor Ginlio Natter received the 1963 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for his invention of isotachtic polypropylene - Meraklon was the brand name given to the fibre produced using this polymer. Merkalon material wicks moisture away from the skin thus reducing the risk of blisters and abrasion.
