Salewa Ortles Dolomites Merino Women's Long Socks

DESCRIPTION

The Ortles Dolomites Merino sock is designed for high-altitude mountaineering, where foot comfort is not a secondary detail but a variable that affects safety and endurance during your outing. Its construction is designed for use with technical mountain boots, combining the natural properties of merino wool with a detailed anatomical design.

Technical construction and materials

Merino wool is the main fiber: it naturally thermoregulates, wicks moisture away from the skin, and resists odor even after prolonged use. The sock keeps your foot warm during breaks and breathes under exertion, without accumulating moisture in critical areas. The toe is constructed seamlessly, eliminating pressure points that can cause irritation and blisters during long descents in tight boots.

• Snug cuff that keeps the sock in place without slipping into the boot
• Padded footbed in the heel and forefoot area to cushion impact on rocky terrain
• Seamless toe to eliminate chafing during prolonged exertion
• Mixed composition with merino wool for thermoregulation and immediate comfort against the skin

When to use it

The Ortles Dolomites Merino sock is designed for female mountaineers who frequent the Dolomites in all seasons, from trail approaches to climbing sections with stiff boots. It works in combination with mountaineering or mountain boots, where the stability of the sock inside the shoe and moisture management on long days make the difference between a healthy foot and one at risk of abrasions.
