Liteway says:
Renewed more light synthetic socks for sleeping - CHOONIE
Renewed version, now made from 10D Nylon DWR Ripstop. More thinner - more lighter!
Warm your feet with insulation produced in the USA: Climashield Apex. Climashield® APEX reaches new heights in combinations of weight and thermal efficiency., this innovative insulation is the lightest weight and most thermally efficient continuous filament insulation on the market today. Due to its unique continuous filament construction - no matter how many times the garment is stretched, compressed or washed Climashield APEX is resilient under harsh conditions, holding its original shape after multiple uses or launderings. With technology AquaBan® - this technology ensures warmth in wet and humid conditions. It does not absorb moisture, because each fiber is coated with acrylic.
The Choonie can be worn over barefoot or use as an additional layer on top of socks. Making it a perfect addition to quilts.
Comparing to the previous model, the number of seams was reduced (completely absent in the foot area). That means that socks are even warmer at the same weight.
Meet dawns and see the sunsets in the mountains will be even warmer.
