Our design teams developed these running socks to protect your feet from blisters when you are out running.
5 toes
the five toes of the foot are kept apart by a very fine anti-friction thread that reduces irritation when they rub against each other.
anti-friction yarn zoning
with the DECATHLON Sportslab (our R&D department), we have superimposed the map of perspiration rates during physical exercise with that of potential blistering when running in order to put the anti-friction yarn in the right areas. On this model, it starts at the heel, goes through the midfoot arch and finishes on each toe with the aim of reducing chafing.
knit design

EXTRA SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT INFORMATION
The black/red and black/yellow models are woven with dope-dyed yarn.Dying textiles requires a lot of water but produces a lot of waste water from dye baths. In order to reduce this impact on the environment, we have chosen to use dope-dying, with the colour pigments integrated as the yarn is manufactured.
Why are there 5 toes? Finely knitted with anti-fiction thread these running socks protect your toes to prevent them from irritating each other during your running outings.
Reduced chafing
special yarn used from the heel to the toes in order to prevent blisters
Moisture management
Material absorbs and wicks perspiration away
Stability
Elastic strip at the midfoot arch to hold the sock in place on the foot.
