ThermoFit, thermo setting every Bridgedale sock ensures a perfect fit. Wash after wash the sock returns to its designed size ensuring a perfect fit every time
Moisture Management System, allows the transfer of moisture away from the surface of the skin to keep feet warm, dry and comfortable
Elasticated Arch, keeps the sock locked in position. During wear this reduces the possibility of bunching and rucking which could cause irritation or blisters
Y Heel, creates a 3D shaped heel cup that prevents excess bulk and slippage which helps to ensure comfort
Forward Flex, prevents the sock from ‘bunching’ under the shoe tongue which helps to ensure comfort
Flat Toe Seam, an almost invisble toe seam closes the toe box creating a comfortable, flat seam that doesn’t create excess bulk or cause irritation
