SocksWH takes outdoor cross training technology to a new height. Patented zone construction utilizes the ultra-comfortable combination of merino wool and alpaca in the toe and heel to absorb moisture while offering comfort in a wide range of temperatures. The moisture transfer zones use Wickspun acrylic to move moisture away from the toe and heel zones, keeping you dry and comfortable. SocksWH also features an anti-abrasion zone to protect the Achilles area from the higher collars common in approach shoes, as well as an acti-flex zone to prevent bunching in the instep and support through the arch. The comfortable waffle knit instep helps to ventilate and reduce heat build up in the shoe.

Art And Architecture: A Blueprint for Comfort Patented technology combines the art of carefully selecting precise yarns for precise zones with the science of building a sock which attains the ultimate levels of comfort and unparalleled performance, specifically and carefully designed to meet the exacting needs of a wide variety of activities. Dahlgren carefully tailors each style to precisely suit the footwear as well as thermal needs and performance requirements of any given situation.
With the help of podiatrists, athletes, and adventurers from around the world, Dahlgren Footwear has developed the Dri-Stride patented line of socks which use separate zones of natural and synthetic fibers to absorb and transfer moisture. Natural zones in the toe and heel (Moisture Absorption Zones) use only the finest grade available of Alpaca, and Merino Wool, to absorb moisture, and provide thermal regulation for all temperatures and climates. Moisture Transfer Zones use Wickspun acrylic to draw moisture out of the Moisture Absorption Zones and up out of the footwear for rapid evaporation and elimination.
*Why Separate Zones? Socks made of all natural yarns absorb and hold moisture. Socks made of all synthetic yarns create heat and only move the moisture back and forth against the foot-they cannot remove moisture. Socks using a blend of natural and synthetic yarns create fiber confusion, one yarn tries to attract moisture, the other repels, and nothing is accomplished. No other system can remove moisture as effectively as this patented technology.
Fiber Specific Details: - Alpaca: This cashmere-like fiber is one of the most luxurious yarns available and comes from the Alpaca, a cousin to the Llama. SocksWH uses only the finest grade, providing incredibly soft comfort, triple the durability of wool alone, superior moisture absorption, and the potential to be up to 10 times warmer than wool, yet the flexibility to adapt to a wide range of climates. Alpaca is also a fabulous friction reducer; effectively helping to prevent blisters.
- Merino Wool: The finest grade of wool; naturally soft, absorbent, and an ability to adapt comfortably to a wide range of climates.
- Wickspun Acrylic: Soft and durable, Wickspun Acrylic is SocksWH Footwear's special blend, which efficiently transfers the moisture away from the natural zones.
