The 1000 Mile Fusion Sport Sock was the first running sock of it’s kind (double layered AND padded) and it’s proven to be one of our most popular socks in the range since it’s conception over 5 years ago.
Conventional sock wisdom dictates that you can either have padding for protection and comfort, or two layers for reduced friction. Padded socks are thick, double layer socks are thin. The 1000 Mile Fusion Sock breaks that mould with innovative design and material technology to provide a sock that offers everything:
Double layer – BLISTER FREE GUARANTEE, together with padded comfort and protection.
FEATURES
— Shaped padding on the toe area and ball of foot for better protection where you need it
— Extended padding on the heel, Ankle and Achilles area to protect the ankle bone
— Flat toe seam
— Ventilation mesh for top of foot – helps to keep the feet cool
— Extra soft fabric for reduced irritation on the skin
100% Tactel inner layer: Soft, light and surprisingly strong. A dynamic, speciality fibre, Tactel® garments are soft, supple, smooth, breathable and lightweight. It dries 8 times faster than cotton. With its soft feel, moisture wicking and quick drying properties this yarn is the perfect yarn to line our socks helping to keep the feet cool and dry during activity.
Also available in an ankle length version for those who prefer a shorter sock: 1000 Mile Fusion Anklet Sock.
Covered by our unique BLISTER FREE GUARANTEE – Double layer construction helps to eliminate friction between the foot and shoe, reducing wear and helping to prevent blisters.
