Description

Our 92% Bamboo | 8% Elastane Extra Thick Bamboo Socks have taken the market by storm. Wives and Mothers of workmen are very happy to get rid of smelly feet from their homes.

Being 92% natural Bamboo fibre they do take long to dry. They absorb much more moisture than a sock made from, say wool and nylon, or even cotton. Because of the hollowness and fineness of the fibres, moisture travels quickly to the outside to evaporate.

Tests reveal that the great soft feel fo the bamboo fabric has not been compromised and the majority of our testers reported that this sock feels even better than the 92% bamboo sock. However, there has been a trade off. The anti-bacterial effect has been slightly reduced. It has been reported by our tester, with very bad foot odour, that after one or two days of wearing without washing daily, odour developes in the Faster Drying Sock, compared to the 92% bamboo sock which could be worn for up to a week without washing.

A further issue is increased flammability. Whilst the 92% bamboo Extra Thick Sock is very hard to ignite, the Faster Drying Sock is 46% polyester and performs similarly to other nylon and polyester blends.
