Design
The sock is one of the last items of clothing to undergo a revolutionary
change in design. Paladin Research, in consultation with expert clinical
advisors, has designed a range of socks using advanced technology and incorporating
a unique combination of natural fibres.
Paladin’s premium range of socks deliver outstanding preventative
and protective features designed to:
- Reduce friction and pressure
- Effectively manage temperature and moisture
- Inhibit bacteria growth
- Offer warm, non-constrictive comfort
- Adapt to the individual shape of the foot
- Provide an important protective interface between the shoe
and the skin
The Paladin Elastic Support System (ESS)
Our trademarked Elastic Support System (ESS) locks the sock onto the
foot and the lower leg with minimal compression, providing support particularly
under the plantar arch region.
By fitting snugly to the skin, this sock works to maintain regular skin
temperature, thus avoiding fluctuations that may cause chilling or vasoconstriction.
Elastics: Elasticity is defined as the ability of a stretched fibre to
return to its original size. In the Paladin therapeutic sock we employ
the highest quality elastics available to provide stretch and recovery.
Elastic Support System ensures:
- a snug, customised fit
- no bunching or ride-down
- reduce friction & shear forces
The illustrated red areas indicate the strategic knitting of the ESS throughout
the sock.
