DESIGNED TO BE THE WORLD’S LIGHTEST RUNNING SOCK

A single Size Large Mini Crew Hyper Thin™ sock in size Large weighs less than 12 grams! They are flat knit (without terry) making them about as thin as a dime. Hyper Thin Run socks are unmatched in their ability to provide dryness, breathability, comfort, and protection.

Many runners believe it’s best to wear the thinnest socks possible to keep feet cooler in hot weather. Thin socks inherently provide little protection from moisture, chafing, frictional hot spots or blisters, and don’t necessarily keep feet cooler. Our revolutionary Hyper Thin™ Running socks are different and protect feet due to our Drymax dual-layer sweat removal system. Their mesh stripe vents provide significant breathability allowing heat and sweat vapors to escape keeping your feet cool throughout your run.

70% Drymax/Olefin, 14% Polyester, 5% Elastane, 11% Nylon

The Problem: MOISTURE IS THE ENEMY

For runners, moisture is the foot’s worst enemy. Moisture causes painful, even race-ending blisters, Athlete’s Foot fungus, odor causing bacteria and over-all discomfort. Runners’ feet get wet either from sweat, puddles, wet grass, rain, snow, or by getting splashed at a race water station. In cold/freezing weather, moisture on the skin pulls heat away 23 times faster than air, reducing the temperature so rapidly that wet feet become painfully cold and much more susceptible to frostbite or Non-Freezing Cold Injury.

MARKETING HYPE CAN'T ESCAPE THE LAWS OF PHYSICS

Wicking fiber socks all claim to keep feet dry. However this is marketing hype and doesn’t change the fact that wicking fiber socks are not able to keep feet dry.

Moisture sticks to wicking fibers

Most wicking fibers are made from polyester, acrylic, nylon or wool and are Hydrophilic (water liking) because they have positive & negative charges on their surfaces. This attracts the negative & positive charges of the water or sweat molecules.

Wicking Fibers Hold Moisture Against the Skin

Wicking fibers get wet and hold moisture against the skin.

Because wicking fibers attract moisture and are next to the skin, they hold moisture against the skin, keeping skin wet. Once wet, wicking fiber socks remain wet until well after the sweating stops and the slow process of evaporation inside a shoe takes place.

Wicking sweat across the skin

Wicking fiber sock manufacturers say their socks wick moisture “away” from the skin. This is misleading as wicking fiber socks also wick sweat across and towards the skin, which helps keep the skin wet.

Wicking fiber technology works for a shirt where the sweat can evaporate into the open air, versus a sock trapped inside a shoe where little if any evaporation can take place.

The Solution: THE SCIENCE OF KEEPING SKIN DRY

Dryness Only 2 Different Technology Layers Can Provide
The laws of physics dictate that no single fiber technology can attract and repel moisture at the same time. To overcome this, drymax products utilize different fiber technologies interwoven to form inner and outer layers.

drymax fibers stay dry by repelling moisture

Super Hydrophobic Fiber Technology
drymax fibers do not wick because they are Super Hydrophobic (moisture repelling). At the molecular level, moisture doesn’t adhere to the inner layer of drymax terry loops.

Removing Sweat From the Skin
Because moisture does not adhere to the drymax fibers, they are able to mechanically lift sweat off the skin like a squeegee and transfer it into the moisture attracting outer layer without retaining this moisture on the inside.

A Self-Contained System – Guaranteed to Work
We designed a self-contained Dual Layer Sweat Removal System so we did not have to rely on the shoes to help keep feet dry. This system works so well we guarantee it will keep feet dry and comfortable in all types of footwear and in cold, hot and even wet conditions.
