LOWA Ice Pro are warm trekking socks from the LOWA Professional collection, developed for extended walking, hiking, winter trekking, tactical tasks and professional use in cold weather. The high wool content provides warmth and helps maintain a comfortable foot climate, while the zoned construction with cushioning and compression areas provides a stable fit inside the footwear.

The material is based on 63% Merino wool, while the total wool content reaches 77%. The combination of Merino wool, natural wool, polyamide and elastane creates warm, elastic and durable socks designed for intensive use with trekking, tactical and other closed footwear.

Merino Wool for Warmth and Moisture Management

Merino wool is characterized by fine, soft fibers, making it well suited to garments that remain in direct contact with the skin for extended periods. LOWA Ice Pro contain 63% Merino wool.

Merino wool retains warmth while also being capable of absorbing and managing moisture, helping maintain a comfortable climate around the foot. This is particularly important during active movement in cold weather, when insulation needs to be combined with effective moisture management.

Merino wool is also naturally less prone to developing unpleasant odors, which is a practical advantage during extended hikes, travel and many hours of footwear use.

77% Total Wool Content

In addition to 63% Merino wool, the material contains another 14% natural wool. The total proportion of wool fibers therefore reaches 77%, emphasizing the LOWA Ice Pro's focus on cold-weather use.

21% polyamide increases the mechanical strength and wear resistance of the material, which is important in areas that constantly contact the inside of the footwear. 2% elastane provides the necessary stretch, helping the socks retain their shape and fit closely around the foot.

Cushioning Zones for Extended Walking

The LOWA Ice Pro construction incorporates dedicated cushioning zones positioned in areas exposed to increased load. They create an additional soft layer between the foot and the inside of the boot and help maintain comfort during extended walking.

This feature is particularly relevant when wearing more rigid trekking or professional footwear and during long-distance movement that places substantial load on the feet.

Compression Zones and Secure Fit

LOWA Ice Pro feature a zoned construction with moderate compression that helps the sock fit closely around the foot and remain in position during active movement.

The elastic cuff provides additional hold and helps prevent the sock from slipping down. A stable fit is particularly important during extended walking because excess folds of material inside a boot can cause discomfort.

Soft Ankle Area

The ankle area features additional soft padding. It creates a comfortable layer between the leg and the inside of a high-cut boot, including the area around the Achilles tendon.

This construction is particularly useful with high-cut trekking, tactical and winter boots that closely surround the ankle area.

Reinforced Toe

The toe area of the LOWA Ice Pro is reinforced for increased wear resistance. This part of a sock is regularly exposed to friction and mechanical stress while walking, so additional reinforcement helps adapt the model to intensive use.

For Trekking and Tactical Footwear

LOWA Ice Pro are designed for users who spend extended periods in closed footwear and require a combination of thermal insulation, moisture management, cushioning and a stable fit. The model is suitable for trekking, winter hiking, tourism, outdoor work and tactical use.

The properties of the Ice Pro are particularly well suited to cold-weather use with appropriately sized trekking, tactical and winter boots.
