Comfort and cotton
Combed cotton is cotton whose fibers have undergone a combing operation to lengthen them and make the fabric even softer, thus guaranteeing better quality. The result is a tennis sock that's softer and more pleasant to wear.
Friction zones are slightly thicker to avoid overheating with the shoe.
The "edge" system
This Artengo tennis sock has a small "protrusion" at the top of the back, just above the heel, which increases comfort by preventing the sock from slipping into the shoe, and reduces the risk of chafing from the shoe rubbing against the heel. This is what we call the "edge" system.
Worn with tennis-type shoes, this protrusion is virtually invisible.
Maintenance
Elastic mesh corresponds to the use of a material called elastane, which is much more elastic and holds the foot better. Your tennis sock may look smaller, but this is due to its greater elasticity. What's more, it's more resistant to repeated washing.
An elastic band has been added to the middle of the foot for better support, but the band is not felt on the foot, and in no way cuts off blood circulation.
Resistance
RS 160 Lowedge socks have recently been redesigned for greater strength and durability.
We've reinforced the toes, heels and soles by twisting the main cotton yarn with a stronger polyamide yarn.
