The heel and toes are reinforced with nylon for added durability.

Note
The socks are completely waterproof due to the membrane used, but will become soaked if submerged in water up to above the top cuff.

Merino wool
Merino wool is a particularly fine and high-quality type of new wool. It is obtained from so-called merino sheep. Merino sheep have particularly fine wool. Merino wool has a special structure and is therefore very soft. The natural fibre has functional properties due to its structure: it is very soft, strongly crimped, elastic and scaled. Merino wool therefore has numerous advantages: it is not scratchy, as the fibres are only half as thick as those of normal new wool. It keeps you warm for a long time. At the same time, merino insulates against heat because it binds moisture and thus regulates body temperature. It can absorb up to a third of its dry weight in water without feeling uncomfortably clammy. This is why the wool provides long-lasting warmth even in rain and snow. Like normal new wool, merino wool is odour-neutralising. That's why you rarely have to wash it. It is usually enough to air merino clothing outdoors. Merino offers natural UV protection. Electrostatic charge does not occur with merino clothing.
