Barefoot hiking and running is renowned by many athletes for having a range of benefits but can be tough on feet, so the 'Powersocks' are designed to help deliver a barefoot experience with a bit of protection.
The socks are crafted using 100% recycled CoolMax yarn that has been proven in lab tests to last longer and dry more quickly than other materials on the market. Weighing in at just 150-grams per pair, the socks are ideal for travel thanks to their ability to be easily stowed inside of luggage.
The 'Powersocks' are rated to withstand up to 300-miles of wear to make them a durable option for enjoying a comfortable experience in nature. The socks are reported by the brand to help strengthen and stretch the feet by allowing for movements that simply aren't possible in traditional footwear.
