‘’Winter conjures images of cold wet feet, possibly with blisters as the wet socks rub and chafe. Waterproof socks are the answer to your soggy state; socks that release moisture vapour (sweat) generated by your feet, and stop water coming in.’’
OUTDOOR PHOTOGRAPHY MAGAZINE, December 2005
What is Sealskinz technology?
Products made with sealskinz patented technology are the ultimate in waterproof, breathable, close fitting protection for hands and feet. They are designed to be worn next to the skin.
How do they work?
Sealskinz have a unique seamless three-layer construction – an outer layer, a waterproof, highly breathable membrane and an inner lining.
1. Inside Layer – The inner lining has been specially developed to actively wick moisture away from the skin to increase comfort and warmth.
2. Middle Layer – The waterproof breathable membrane is inserted using patented technology and allows perspiration, as water vapour, to escape whilst preventing water coming in . The membrane typically has a breathability of greater than 65% WVP
3. Outer Layer – The outer layer is designed for extra durability and abrasion resistance with stretch to fit properties.
