PRESSRELEASE SEPTEMBER 2013 5 From one version to another always with exclusive bene its! The 3-D DOTS... in 8 points! 1. Blood low stimulation The acupressure effect of the 3D.DOTS contributes to activating and stimulating the micro blood circulation in the soft areas of the foot where the skin is thin and microcirculation lush with the skin. 2. Shock absorption The external overwoven structure of the 3D.DOTS allows for absorption and dampening over the shock areas. 3. Protection of the Achilles tendon The 3D.DOTS at the rear of the sock protect the Achilles tendon thanks to their cushion effect thereby preventing friction and pressure from the sock. 4. Protection of the malleolus on the TRAIL model 5. Slip-proof The multidirectional 3D.DOTS ensure maximum grip in shoes thereby preventing feet from slipping during effort. 6. Ventilation No heating, no risk of blisters as the air lows easily between the 3D.DOTS. 7. Water extract The 3D.DOTS do not retain water (rain, hydration, perspiration) and facilitate its discharge. Feet stay dry. 8. Extreme comfort The internal overwoven structure of the 3D.DOTS ensure extreme comfort and eliminate any risk of cha ing thanks to its padding effect. From toes to heel... "Ergoformable" toe piece... Gone with cha ing, heating and shocks which can hinder performance during effort. The toe piece contours and covers the toes without creasing, compressing or smothering the foot. Toes are left free and not squashed together. ArchStim designed for fresh and unhindered feet Positioned on the arch of the foot, this elastic compression strip has several assets: 1. Blood low activation: the regenerated blood is detoxed for performance optimisation 2. Strengthening of posture in stride: hold and strengthening ensure a stronger and more balanced stride 3. Optimum holding of the sock. This prevents the sock from moving, slipping, twisting or creasing, etc. The sock stays in place.
