Main Material

Oddly, to keep your hands and feet warm, you need to cover your head. 
Extreme cold increases blood flow to the heart and brain at the expense of the feet and hands. 
So, if you want warm hands and feet, bring a hat!

Light reinforcement on the shin and ankles.

Features

This ski sock prevents discomfort. The seams never sit on a pressure point.

Ergonomic design

All our sock sizes cover 3 or 4 shoe sizes. The elastane helps the socks mould to your feet and stay in place. Foot length, size, and volume vary from person to person: that’s why it’s important to try your socks on before going skiing.
We always recommend choosing slightly small over slightly large socks.

Choosing the right sock size

The size chart for this sock is more precise than for other models in the range: One sock size covers three foot sizes instead of the usual four. This model also offers asymmetrical feet (differentiated right and left foot) for a perfect fit.

Sizing

This sock is made with an anti-friction yarn.
Blisters are generally caused by socks, shoes, or foreign objects chafing feet. Humidity also plays a role, as it makes skin more vulnerable.
Chafing is reduced when the sock stays in place.
Some of our socks have anti-friction yarn to reduce irritation.
These socks do not provide 100% protection from blisters.

Reduce blisters

Our ski socks are guaranteed for 2 years.
Our commitment: To offer you long-lasting products that you can use for all your winter sports. The products we love the most are those that have had many adventures, with many more to come!

Sizing information

Our water-repellent clothing protects you while cross-country skiing.
Water repellency is a material’s ability to shed water without absorbing it. 
Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. 

Water-repellent properties

We recommend the three-layer technique. 
Layer 1: A second skin (technical base layer) that wicks away moisture to keep your skin dry.
Layer 2: An insulating layer (T-shirt, fleece) that provides warmth and wicks away moisture.
Layer 3: An outer layer (jacket) that protects against the elements (wind, snow, cold).

Adjust the number of layers to suit the intensity of your activity and the weather. Make sure your clothing is breathable.

How to stay warm and dry while cross-country skiing

To avoid feeling damp, wear breathable clothing that allows perspiration to evaporate. 
We measure our clothing’s evaporative resistance (RET) 
RET < 6: extremely breathable, ideal for high-intensity activity
 RET 6–12: very breathable, suitable for moderate-intensity activity
 RET 12–20: moderately breathable, not suitable for intense activity RET
 > 20: not very breathable and therefore not suitable for physical activity
 RET > 40: not breathable

Why is it important to wear breathable clothing when cross-country skiing?

Did you know that the wind makes you feel colder?An outdoor temperature of 0°C with a wind speed of 20 km/h (12 mph) feels like -10°C.Windproof features reduce windchill by blocking airflow and wind.

Why should you protect yourself from the wind?

Design

To stay warm and dry, use the 2 or 3 breathable-layers rule.
In warmer weather, a breathable base layer provide comforts, some warmth, and good perspiration wicking.
If it is cooler, FR900 under-shorts provide a bit more warmth in the right places.
In cold weather, combine several layers while retaining good breathability.

maternity

Our water-repellent clothing protects you while cross-country skiing.
A fabric’s water repellency is its ability to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. A fabric is made water-repellent by applying a treatment to its outer surface. This treatment needs to be reapplied during the life of the garment (recommended every three washes). 

We recommend the three-layer technique. 
Layer 1: A technical base layer that wicks away moisture to keep your skin dry.
Layer 2: An insulating layer (T-shirt, fleece) that provides warmth and wicks moisture outward.
Layer 3: An outer layer (jacket) that protects against the elements (wind, snow, cold).

Adjust the number of layers to suit the intensity of your activity and the weather. Make sure your clothing is breathable.

Did you know that the wind makes you feel colder? 
With 20 km/h winds, 0°C feels like -10°C.
The windproof features reduce the wind chill.

Collar Type

sleeve length

The BL 500 soft thermal base layer comes in a slim fit. This slim-fitting base layer reduces friction.

Polyamide is the strongest of all raw textile materials, even when wet, and it is very stretchy.
This breathable fibre manages moisture very well and provides good temperature regulation.
These specially textured, super-soft yarns give the fabric a silky, natural feel. Ideal for tight, seamless clothing.

What are the benefits of polyamide?

Thanks to its bodymapping technology and brushed polyamide fibre created with I-Soft technology, this second skin will evenly distribute body heat.

Technical product structure

The I-Soft technology enhances the fabric’s performance, providing a variety of benefits: softness, warmth, and comfort. It also enhances garment performance, providing better heat regulation, humidity absorption, and thermal insulation. To achieve this softness, the base layer is brushed.

What is I-Soft technology?

The I-Band technology is an innovative design used around the waist of the I-Soft top and bottom base layers. It helps keep the garment in place so that it doesn’t ride up or fall down when skiing.

What is I-Band technology?

You need three technical layers to keep warm on the slopes:
- Layer 1 or a second skin, to stay dry. 
- Layer 2 or an insulating layer, to keep the heat in.
- Layer 3 or a protective layer to protect against the elements.

Options

Pack

The backpack has been designed using a fabric that is waterproof up to 2,000 Schmerbers and has 100% taped seams to keep water out. We chose a rolling closing system like the kind used on canyoning backpacks. This reduces the risk of water penetrating a zipper, for example. The canyon-type fastening is most effective at stopping water from infiltrating the bag.

To determine a fabric’s breathability, we test its evaporative resistance or RET (based on the ISO 11092 standard). The lower its resistance, the more perspiration escapes and the more breathable it is. •	RET < 6: extremely breathable, suitable for intense workouts
•	RET 6 to 12: very breathable, designed for moderate exercise
•	RET 12 to 20: average breathability, not comfortable for intense exercise
• RET >20: little breathability, inappropriate for exercise
