HEAVY
DUTY 10% SILVER WORKING SOCKS
With extra cushioning for addition comfort
Product suitable for: - Industrial
Safety Shoes and Walking / Trekking Shoes.Now twice as thick plus
reinforced heel when compared to our Classic Silver Sock.
Many employees
are now issued with compulsory work shoes and boots fitted with
steel caps, safety boots, rubber boots wellingtons or similar
non-functional shoes when working in various industrial sectors
such as construction, transport, warehousing and emergency services.
It’s inevitable that many people wearing these
types of shoe or boots will, at some point maybe earlier or later
suffer from the problems of sweaty feet, bad odours, blisters
or athlete’s foot.
A consequence of these problems could lead to demotivation
and loss of work time. Safety shoes can protect you from mechanical
hazards but they are no insurance for health risks.
They do not actively breathe because many products offer some
form of water resistant membrane technology to prevent accidental
spillage or moisture getting to the feet, these membranes can
create more health problems
.Imagine that the average foot loses approximately
a litre of perspiration per day which inside a safety shoe or
boot cannot dry or dissipate. The membrane creates a hot and closed
area which just enhances the perspiration and bacteria problem.
In reality the membrane in safety footwear is similar
to wearing a plastic bag on your foot. The wearing of normal cotton
socks is contradictive as the foot temperature will increase and
also the perspiration, worse the humidity and wetness will create
bacteria and then start to smell, giving a very fertile environment
for blisters, fungus, eczema and general skin complaints.
What improvements can
be made:
Conventional medicines, restraining sprays and creams are at best
risky because they may contain Aluminum-Chloride an extremely
precarious substance which is considered as toxic by some environmental
organisations. A review of the contents on the packaging could
be frightening. These treatments are expensive and the results
if any will only last until the next day.
Other alternative medicines:
That do get recommended are often pure cotton socks, foot baths,
oils and creams and powders from natural substances. These are
also no-less time consuming and sometimes they are even more expensive
and limited on results.
Heavy Duty Silver Working
Socks:
Can solve these problems with a 100% natural method that is efficient,in-expensive,
comfortable and very discrete.
The silver fibre in the sock will attack the problem and thanks
to the silvers capacity to enhance the evaporation the humidity
in the safety type of shoe is reduced therefore creating a dryer
foot climate. The temperature regulating performance of the silver
helps to balance the foot to the skins core temperature of 37º
blisters and eczema can be avoided (both appear only on wet, softened
skin).
Bad odour or smells are stopped and prevented, the
silver will paralyze any bacteria and stop them breathing and
within one hour of wear the foot is free of nasty bad odours.
Silver Socks:
Are recommended by Company Doctors, Occupational Health Practitioners,
Dermatologists, Chiropodists and Podiatrists.
Silver Socks:
Are produced according to OEKOTEX 100 standard and free of any
harmful substances.
They can be machine washed at 40º C without any loss of performance.
