DISCOVER THE MATERIALS BEHIND EVERY ROHNER SOCK

EGYPTIAN COTTON

Egyptian cotton is a fiber of particularly high quality with a very high staple length. The staple length refers to the fiber length of a yarn. This has the advantage over normal cotton that it can be spun into a thin but strong yarn. This makes the yarn more resistant, softer and shinier.

COTTON

Cotton is a fine natural fiber and is highly absorbent. However, this in turn has the disadvantage that it becomes heavy and takes a long time to dry. When dry, it is very light in weight, feels pleasantly soft and is particularly kind to the skin. Cotton socks are also particularly breathable, easy to care for and hard-wearing. In addition to these excellent properties, cotton socks have exceptionally good temperature and moisture-regulating properties. And last but not least: cotton is a renewable raw material, which means that cotton products are biodegradable.

RESISTEX BIOCERAMIC

Resistex® Bioceramic is a polyester fiber that is bound to bioceramic crystals and can have a very beneficial effect on the human body. The unique technology of Resistex® Bioceramic makes it possible to reduce the temperature of the inner surface of the fabric, thus ensuring freshness and comfort during exercise. In addition, the polyester fiber is environmentally friendly and non-toxic as it contains no chemicals and is made from recyclable material. It also protects against harmful UV-A and UV-B rays and has an odor-inhibiting and antibacterial effect.

RESISTEX CARBON

Resistex® Carbon is a yarn characterized by unique technical properties, which are achieved by combining textile fibres with a continuous filament of conductive material based on activated carbon.

The advantages at a glance:

Reduction of the lactic acid concentration
Improvement of blood circulation
Enrichment of the cells with oxygen
natural, non-toxic, contains no chemicals
Protection against UV rays, bacteria and allergies
Heat regulation and transfer
performance enhancement

CLIMAYARN

Climayarn® fibers absorb moisture, keep you warm at low temperatures and prevent your feet from overheating during training. They combine the advantages of natural merino wool with the high performance and strength of polypropylene. Compared to conventional cotton blends, it dries significantly faster.

MAN-MADE FIBER

Man-made fibers are fibrous materials that are produced chemically. A distinction is made between two groups: synthetic and cellulosic. Synthetic man-made fibers are made from raw materials that do not exist in nature, which is why they are produced artificially. Cellulosic man-made fibers, on the other hand, are produced from the natural raw material cellulose.

COOLMAX®

CoolMax® fibers absorb moisture from the body, dry quickly and thus optimally regulate body temperature. They also prevent blisters from forming. Thanks to optimum moisture regulation, they improve comfort in all sporting activities.

The advantages at a glance:

Fast sweat removal
High air permeability
Quick drying
No odor formation
Dimensionally stable
Easy care and crease-resistant
Durable functionality

ELASTANE

Elastane fibers are chemical fibers made of polyurethane, which contain both elastic and rigid segments, resulting in a very high elastic stretch. Environmental conditions such as low or high temperatures do not affect elastane socks, as the elastane makes them more tear-resistant and durable than all other socks. Each time the sock is stretched, it always returns to its original shape. Elastane socks are very comfortable to wear and offer great freedom of movement, and they are also very easy to care for. The soft-to-the-touch material ensures a perfect fit.

CASHMERE

Cashmere is a fine and soft natural fiber obtained from the undercoat of the cashmere goat, which is why it is known as fine wool. Cashmere has excellent warmth properties and is incredibly fine, soft, supple and very light on the skin.

MERINO WOOL

Merino wool is the high-quality wool from merino sheep. The coat consists of light, thin hairs and can withstand extreme temperature fluctuations. In contrast to normal sheep's wool, merino fibers are much finer and only half as thick, which is also the reason why merino wool is not itchy, unlike normal wool.

The advantages of merino wool at a glance:

It does not itch
It is breathable
Is temperature-regulating: cools in summer and warms in winter
Does not form unpleasant odors
Retains moisture, but does not feel damp
Warms even when damp and transports moisture to the outside
Is biodegradable and a renewable, sustainable fiber
