Who did we design them for?

For hikers and trekkers who pass through areas with tall grass or forests where ticks are present.

Summer and mid-season outdoor activities where insect protection is equally important than comfort.

Those who want an integrated preventive solution rather than applying repellent to their legs.

How to wear them?

To wear directly inside your hiking shoe : the high upper reaching to the knees fully covers the lower leg for maximum protection against ticks in woodland. Particularly effective when tall grass touches the leg. If you are between two sizes, opt for the smaller size to avoid bunching.

What sets them apart?

Its treatment INSECT-STOPPER with permethrin protects against ticks and mosquitoes on grassy trails, with a rise to the knees in thermoregulating merino wool.

Hiking without stopping.

Ticks strike in long grass, bushes and undergrowth as soon as vegetation touches the skin. And an unnoticed bite can have serious consequences.

These socks feature the INSECT-STOPPER treatment based on permethrin — OEKO-TEX 100 certified, odourless — which repels and kills ticks and mosquitoes on contact. The knee-high rise covers the entire risk zone between shoe and shorts.

The merino + polyamide + acrylic structure ensures thermoregulation and moisture management to stay comfortable for several hours. Built-in protection, preserved comfort.

Because a hike without ticks is a better hike.

In summary This content is written by AI

Customers particularly appreciate their comfort: they find them soft, pleasant to wear and supportive enough to feel at ease, without feeling constricted below the knee. The fit is considered accurate and the hold is good. Several also see the insect protection, especially against ticks and midges, as a real advantage, although its effectiveness still needs to be confirmed in real conditions. They are intended for hiking and expeditions, including in demanding environments.

Not yet tested, just tried on. True to size, comfortable, not too tight below the knee, just right. We'll see how they hold up in real-world conditions and after a few washes. The tick protection seems like a nice bonus.
