Essential THERMOREGULATING

The fine cotton layer of THERMOREGULATING layer protects the skin from drying out and has a thermoregulating effect. The cotton fabric absorbs excess moisture directly from the skin and stores it inside the fibers. This prevents developing a moisture film on the skin which promotes the undesirable growth of bacteria. This is beneficial for people with sensitive skin.

thermoregulating

sensitive skin

• Soft: is also suitable for sensitive legs due to 14 % cotton content and soft top
• Cooling: evaporation of moisture stored in the cotton, resulting in a cooling effect
• Warming: the air in the spaces between the knitted fabric and the fibers forms an insulting layer at cold temperatures
• Attractive: discreet, non-transparent ribbed structure, conceals venous problem zones perfectly
