New 1000 Mile Heat Socks for hikers made with recycled coffee

Do you like coffee? Do you love warm socks? Are you a fan of recycled products? If so, the new 1000 Mile Heat Socks for hikers might well appeal.

The double layer socks are constructed with a yarn that blends coffee charcoal derived from coffee bean shells – a natural surplus product – and soft merino wool.

Known as NILIT HEAT yarn, it works to retain body heat to help to keep feet and toes warm.

In addition, the double-layered design of the sock reduces the potential for friction between the foot and shoe – and therefore lessens the risk of blister.

Merino wool has other properties such as allowing sweat to evaporate from hot feet; natural moisture repellency; and staying whiff-free for longer than socks made from man-made products.

Other features of the 100 Mile Heat Socks are all-over padding; top venting on foot for added breathability; and arch bracing for additional support and comfort.

The socks are priced at £17.99 and sold in male and female fit.
