Socks: the shoes of the future

Socks: the shoes of the future

A scientific study has proven that walking or playing sports barefoot was much more natural, and therefore healthier for muscles and joints.
With this in mind, "The Swiss barefoot company" has designed an all-terrain sock that enables wearers to have the feeling of being barefoot while benefitting from the same type of effective and durable protection offered by conventional shoes.

Composed of 50% Kevlar, a material known for its resistance to heat, stretching, shearing, and famously used for bulletproof vests, the Swiss Protection Socks provide maximum protection against roughness and stones, pebbles and rocks. They are mainly intended for climbing and hiking enthusiasts. In the summertime, they are also recommended for all water activities, although they will not protect the wearers from sea urchins!
