ORTOVOX Tour compression knee socks, safety blue

Ortovox Tour Compression knee socks

Do you want to avoid fatigue during the ascent? In that case, the TOUR COMPRESSION SOCKS LONG could become your favorite socks for long and demanding ascents. Thoughtful compression supports muscles and protects them from fatigue. The socks have special zones, an ergonomic shape and are made of a combination of Merino wool, polyamide and silk. They are designed for a pleasant experience during ski touring, high mountain hiking, trail running and other aerobic activities when you need to oxygenate your muscles.

Gradual compression

Sports socks TOUR COMPRESSION SOCKS LONG have gradual compression. The compression is stronger at the ankle and decreases upwards. This ensures that deoxygenated blood full of lactate is pushed back to the heart faster, and fresh oxygenated blood reaches the legs better. Thanks to this, the legs get tired later and have more energy.

• The compression is according to the European CEN standard, i.e. class 1 – moderate pressure (15-21 mmHg).
• Compression ensures better oxygenation of the legs, supply of nutrients and thus improves performance.

Each zone fulfills its purpose

Functional socks TOUR COMPRESSION SOCKS LONG also stand out with their ergonomic shape. During the process of seamless knitting, special zones are created, each of which fulfills its specific purpose:

• Toes with flat seams to eliminate blisters.
• Reinforced heel and toe, for better comfort and longer life.
• Gradual compression in the calf area.
• 360° belt around the arch of the foot with excellent breathability and moisture removal.
• The sock is ergonomically shaped for the right and left foot separately.
• Ergonomically shaped ankle, thanks to which the sock does not wrinkle or come off.
• Elastic cuff against gathering of the sock.

Comfort thanks to Merino wool

Thanks to the natural properties of Merino wool, the socks are able to wick moisture away, have good thermoregulatory properties, neutralize odors and are very comfortable. This makes them a great companion for long and demanding ski mountaineering tours and also for high-altitude alpine crossings.

The highest quality Merino wool

ORTOVOX uses only the highest quality Merino wool from Tasmania. Merino wool is a material that degrades only negligibly over time and retains its functional properties for many years. Merino wool comes only from selected farms that meet the strict standards of the ORTOVOX WOOL PROMISE (OWP).

• ORTOVOX obtains new merino wool from certified sheep farms that adhere to ethical principles of animal treatment.
• Only wool from Tasmanian sheep meets the demanding requirements of the ORTOVOX brand.

These farms are regularly monitored as part of the OWP. The wool itself is 100% ecological and therefore extremely environmentally sustainable. Merino wool provides perfect comfort and a feeling of softness thanks to the thin fibers that make up fine woolen yarns. In addition, this wool perfectly regulates temperature and wicks away sweat, so you will feel comfortable in any conditions. In addition, Merino wool neutralizes odors thanks to its antibacterial effects, and it is very easy to care for.

Where there is no room for fatigue

Men's socks TOUR COMPRESSION SOCKS LONG will very quickly become an indispensable part of your equipment for the mountains. The gradual compression function supports your muscles, your legs are better oxygenated and fatigue comes much later. They are a great companion for long and demanding ski mountaineering tours or high-altitude alpine crossings. Simply everywhere where there is no place for fatigue.
