An eye-catching stripe pattern and ultralight, itch-proof merino wool make the Ithaca as soft and luxurious as it is stylish. This crew sock's thin profile makes it a natural match for slim-fitting shoes???and thanks to wool's natural thermo-regulating properties, your feet stay at a comfortable temperature in just about any weather. American-made hidden plaiting construction facilitates the Ithaca's vivid color palette and creates a durable finish.. . ??. . . U.S. Merino Wool: Merino wool is soft, itch-free, naturally odor- and bacteria-resistant, cool in the summer and warm in winter. We source our 100% U.S. grown merino wool exclusively from sheep raised by American farmers on American farms.. Hidden Nylon Plaiting:??Advanced construction that sandwiches stretch yarns between two layers of body yarn, hidden nylon plaiting creates a smooth exterior and a low-profile fit that is ideal for technical and sport socks. A side benefit of this modern knitting technique is its ability to incorporate complex patterns, open-weave zones, and intricate designs for increased performance and extra style.. Flat-Knit Construction: We use flat-knit construction in our lightest weight casual socks and in the non-cushioned zones of some technical sport socks. Its thin cross-section helps with ventilation and reduces bulk for a better fit in low-volume footwear, while the smooth seamless knit feels wonderful next to the skin.. Seamless Toe Closure:??Advanced knitting techniques create a totally flat connection in the toe box, reducing bulk and eliminating blister-generating friction.. Comfort Compression:??Circumferential compression from the top of the sock through the arch creates a precise, comfortable fit that helps support the foot throughout the day.. Durability Assured:??Reinforced construction and low-stress seam placement reduce wear and tear, increasing the life of the sock. 606902763212 34591100117 8982
