Kora, a company dedicated to sustainable and ethical practices, has recently released its durable 'Upside Down Sock.' The sock is perfect for hikers and can be worn in technical boots, making it your go-to for any adventure.
The socks boast plush wool that ensures the wearer's comfort and performance. The strategically cushioned design ensures the terry loop is only present in key zones, this decreases both bulk and weight while increasing breathability. The Upside Down Sock also includes a mesh knit section at the toe, which reduces its mass and any abrasion. The compressed terry loop is performance-enhancing, while also minimizing the chances of blisters.
These durable socks have been designed with comfort and performance in mind, ensuring a high-quality build and versatility.
