Fox River Company Fox River

From athletic, outdoor and hiking socks to winter sports, boot & field, women-specific and anatomical styles, Fox River has been an industry leader and innovator for more than 100 years.

One of Fox River’s patented designs is the Wick-Dry® Health Systemä which helps keep feet dry and comfortable, no matter what the temperature. This system combines an inner layer of moisture-repelling (hydrophobic) yarn, such as DuPont CoolMax®, with an outer layer of moisture-attracting (hydrophilic) yarn to wick moisture away.

Fox River’s Wick-Dry® Health Systemä prevents clamminess by resisting the build-up of dampness within the microclimate of the sock. By keeping the foot dry, this unique system maximizes comfort while minimizing friction, creating an environment that promotes healthier feet.

Fox River continues to lead the sport-specific sock industry in technical advancements. As a testament to its products, the company has won the Backpacker Editors’ Choice Award two years in a row. www.foxsox.com
