What is the Element Over-The-Calf?
As the name slightly gives away, the Element is a tall, protective, high performance sock which sits just below the knee. Thanks to its built-in compression, it's perfect for endurance athletes or those taking part in activities which require added protection.
What are they made of?
The main bulk of the sock is made from Merino Wool, one of the most comfortable, breathable and versatile fabrics available. It wicks away sweat, is naturally odour-resistant and features Darn Tough's Fine Gauge Knitting, meaning it's far tougher than your standard everyday sock. The top of the sock features a looser knit to feel almost like mesh, drastically increasing breathability. The combination of this brilliant fabric and Darn Tough's high quality knitting ensures the sock won't bunch, slip or cause blisters.
How cushioned are they?
The Element's feature Darn Tough's 'light cushion' weight, meaning there's ample padding underfoot for comfort and protection, yet the rest remains uncushioned for breathability.
What are the features?
Darn Tough use their True Seamless construction throughout the sock to make seams virtually undetectable, reducing the chance of discomfort down the line. As with all Darn Tough socks, they're also guaranteed for life.
