At last, real orienteering socks!
If, like us, you like to get off the beaten track and get to the marker as quickly as possible, we've got running socks designed for off-trail running!
How to create an orienteering sock?
By using a real running foot design, with a specific construction and yarn called Friction Free in the heel and toe, which reduces the risk of blisters.
The upper (the top part of the sock) is comfortable and resistant thanks to its 4-thread weave in the shin area.
The sock ends with a tightened area below the knee, to prevent the sock from sliding down the leg.
The orienteers at DECATHLON have tested it for you:
Our great team of orienteers has tested and validated these socks for you.
Let's meet Maxence Malak, orienteer with the Douai orienteering club, France (TAD), Paola Briz, orienteer with the Albacete orienteering club, Spain (BMT Casas de Ves) and Gabor Vas, orienteer with the Miskolc orienteering club, Hungary (DTC).
