Hiking sock and trump

The innovation relates to a walking sock or hiking sock, especially in a knitted version with a foot part and a shaft part. Depending on the needs, the shaft part is designed from sock length to knee length or even longer.

In order to prevent stones, sand and other annoying elements, including snow, from getting into shoes or boots when walking, two pairs of socks or socks and knee socks are often worn on top of each other at the same time, with the edge or shaft of the outer sock folded outwards over the edge of the shoe. Wearing two pairs of socks in one shoe often proves to be disadvantageous, as it can lead to friction.

The innovation is based on the task of creating a hiking sock and stocking that can safely prevent stones and other annoying parts from the environment from getting into the shoe when hiking.

The innovation solves the problem with a hiking sock and stocking of the generic type by means of two coaxially arranged shaft parts, which at their end facing the foot part are connected just above the heel part along the connecting seam

are connected to each other/ and of which the inner shaft part is at least as long as the outer shaft part. According to the design, an integral, all-round collar is created on the sock or stocking, which can be folded outwards over the edge of the shoe and creates a continuous surface from the shaft that rests on the leg over the shoe. This completely closes the gap between the leg and the shoe and reliably prevents stones or snow from falling into the shoe. Another advantage is that only one sock is worn on the foot in the shoe, which significantly improves the fit and makes it more secure. The inner shaft part is also preferably longer than the outer shaft part, which only needs to cover the upper shaft of the shoe on the outside.

It is intended that the outer shaft part should be approximately

Length of a shaft part of a short sock and sufficient stretchability to form a cuff by turning it over. This also means that the outer shaft part can be slightly conical, for example, from the connecting seam upwards and can have a wider opening than the inner shaft part. With such a design, a good fit of the inner shaft part on the leg is guaranteed and at the same time the easy turning of the

outer shaft part over the shoe. The inner shaft part can 25

corresponding to a sock or knee high or have greater length.

When manufacturing and designing hiking socks or stockings, the outer shaft part can either form an integral part with the foot part and the inner shaft part can be attached or vice versa. However, it is also possible to manufacture the two shaft parts separately and connect them along the connecting seam, for example preferably by knitting them together and then attaching the foot part. In any case, it must be ensured that the connecting seam between the outer and inner shaft parts does not add bulk and does not create a

allows a pressure-free transition on the leg when worn.

In a preferred version of the hiking sock, it is knitted in its entirety. However, it is also possible to make the outer shaft part from a weatherproof material, for example

r an impregnated fabric or even just a simple soft, dense material that is connected to the sock or stocking that forms the inner shaft part and the foot part along the connecting seam. The outer shaft part can be equipped with an elastic band or drawstring at the upper free edge so that a tight, tight connection to the shoe is possible after folding over.

The innovation is shown in the drawing using examples

shown. The figures show a schematic representation Io

1 to 4 hiking socks 1 in different designs.

The hiking sock 1 according to Figure 1 is designed with a short shaft with the integral sock consisting of a foot part 10 and an outer shaft 13, into which the inner shaft 12 is inserted coaxially. The connecting seam 14 between the inner and outer shaft is located slightly above the indicated heel part 11 of the foot part 10.

In the hiking sock according to Figure 2, the foot part 10 is integral 25

with the inner shaft 12 and the outer shaft part 13 is pulled up coaxially and connected to the inner shaft part along the connecting seam 14. If the socks are made by knitting, the connecting seam 14 can

either by knitting together or by chaining or 30

Sewing can be made.

Figure 3 shows a hiking sock with two shaft parts 12, 13, where the inner shaft part 12 adjacent to the leg is designed as an over-the-knee sock.

Figure 4 shows how the hiking sock 1 of the

The outer shaft part 13 forms a complete closure by folding outwards over a shoe (not shown), whereby the seam 14 creates a continuous stocking surface so that nothing can penetrate into the shoe.

The new hiking socks or stockings with double shaft can also be made with different colors for the two shaft parts, so that fashion needs can be taken into account.
