Japanese manufacturer of socks and hosiery products, Goldwin has introduced new socks, C3fit Arch-Support Socks, made using paper-fibre WA CLOTH HYBRID.
WA CLOTH HYBRID is an innovative, eco-friendly fabric that was presented at the recently held ISPO Munich trade show. Goldwin is the first company to use it in its C3Fit socks, which combine graduated compression, body conditioning, and comfort for every movement. The socks provide excellent breathability, which helps in avoiding trapping of heat and sweat inside the shoes. The socks wick away the undesirable moisture from sweat inside the shoes, maintaining dryness.
Besides, C3fit Arch socks feature cross taping structure, with two vertical arches and three horizontal arches that support the arches of the foot, thus reduces chances of arch injuries. Moreover, the toe and heel areas are made with stronger yarns for better durability even during extreme conditions. The C3fit socks not only support body conditioning during exercises, but also prevents swelling after an intense workout or a race.

WA CLOTH HYBRID is made by twisting and weaving shreds of paper that creates unique texture that does not stick to the skin. This quality reduces the chances of getting blisters that are caused by the sock material rubbing against the skin. The fabric offers natural odour control and UV protection, and is said to provide five times more durability to the socks than the regular running socks.
