Lorpen says:
Shorty sock that keeps the foot cool and protected thanks to the combination of technologies. The padding in the heel and toe provides comfort during long, nonwinter days of trekking. The combination of Extra Grip and SBS technologies guarantees a perfect fit, avoiding excessive tightening of the calf.

- Fit+ Adaptability: This ensures that the sock adapts well to each foot in each size, without wrinkles or creases that can cause blisters.
- SBS Toes Seam: A Lorpen technical sock has a flat seam that joins each stitch to the other without overlapping.
- Multiple Density Knit: Padding in high-impact areas and reduced padding or open mesh in others for ventilation, alongside Lorpen's proprietary multiple density technology.
