 Injinji were created in 1999, when the Romay brothers set out to redesign the basic structure and shape of the 'regular' sock. Their intentions were pure and very simple: “We wanted to create the best possible interface that would allow the entire foot to perform naturally and freely inside our shoes - just like being barefoot. There had to be a way to combine the comfort and dexterity of bare feet with the protection of a seamless sock. Everything about the conventional tube sock works against your feet’s natural form and function.” Here is how the Romany Brothers explained it further: Think of gloves and mittens - "Mittens keep your fingers together to create a warmer, oven-like environment, while gloves offer less warmth but more dexterity. The same principles can be applied to our feet. Conventional socks force your toes to work together as one unit, creating unprotected friction, heat and moisture build up, and constricting the circulation of the foot. Have we been wearing mittens on our feet all this time?" From this, the first sock in the Injinji line, the 'Performance' style was developed! Information on the Technology of InjinjiProven to work in the simplest and most extreme conditions, the Performance series tetratsok is fast becoming the first choice of sock wear for amateur and professional athletes alike. Engineered with AIS: technology and constructed with a wicking fiber made of CoolMax® and a resistant outer shell of durable nylon, the Performance tetratsok protects, prevents and out performs any ordinary tube closed sport sock. Anatomical Interface System (AIS) is engineered to separate your toes with a thin, anti-friction membrane that is both lightweight and breathable. Seamless in construction, the tetratsok forms to every contour of your foot. This allows for true restriction free movement from your heel to five toes, encourages healthy circulation, and eliminates skin on skin contact between your toes to prevent blisters from developing.
