## Overview

Thorlo’s patented thick padded ankle socks deliver clinically-tested protection and comfort for runners facing moderate to intense foot stress. Made in the USA with moisture-wicking THORLON fibers and ergonomic cushioning, these socks reduce blisters, impact, and pressure, ensuring your feet stay dry, supported, and pain-free mile after mile.

## Description

Our clinically-tested foot protection (socks) allow people to participate in their chosen activity longer than they had thought possible, and in many cases, pain-free. Studies show that our clinically-tested padding reduces blisters, foot pain and other foot conditions by absorbing shearing forces and impact loads; reduces pressures on the feet that contribute to pain and other foot conditions; and also wicks (or moves) moisture away from the foot-important because excessive moisture is a catalyst for blisters, athlete's foot and other fungal and bacterial infections.

Review: Die wichtigste Information: die Socken taugen Nix - Sie malen ja, dass ich viele Artikel zurückschicke. Aber diese Socken hätte ich eigentlich auch zurückschicken müssen. Teuer und können Nix.
