Regular toe socks without silver fibers are already a step toward improving foot health because they:

• separate the spaces between the toes, creating a more balanced foot climate and less favorable conditions for germs
• absorb sweat from between the toes into the fabric, helping to keep the area dry
• encourage more natural use of the foot and help strengthen it overall

In addition, the cotton yarn with a silver core used in the Silver Protect toe socks enhances these benefits through its natural antimicrobial effect.

Conventional socks enclose the entire foot but ignore the natural shape of the toes. As a result, the toes are pressed together. At the same time, the spaces between the toes create a sheltered environment where microbes can thrive. In regular socks, these areas are not effectively reached by the antimicrobial fabric — and pressing the toes together can even make the problem worse.

The European Textile Labelling Regulation does not provide a way to declare silver thread in the material composition label.

We use a silver thread that does not lose its effectiveness. Even after 200 wash cycles, 99% of its antimicrobial performance remains.

No. We simply use a yarn that contains silver and can therefore naturally help inhibit the growth of germs.

If you suffer from infections, athlete’s foot, or other medical conditions, please always seek professional medical advice first.
