LORPEN T3+ BIOWARMER EXPEDITION OVERCALF

The T3+ Biowarmer Expedition Overcalf (Tiexe) is probably one of the few socks that are not knitted, but sewn from individual pieces of fabric. We combine the main material Sensil BioCare with PrimaloftBio insulation in the foot. In this way, the foot always stays nice and warm, even from underneath. The seams are made of Sensil BioCare nylon thread and the cuff is made of chlorine-free wool. Instead of a chlorine-based Superwash treatment, Lorpen uses enzymes.

All materials used are biodegradable.
