Knitido Dr. Foot® Silver Protect  - Antimicrobial socks for protection in everyday life.
Knitido Dr. Foot Silver Protect® socks protect your feet from bacterial and fungal infections and unpleasant odors. Efficient for cotton thread with a silver core.

The advantage of the fingering socks in relation to conventional socks with a silver thread: the thread is effective throughout the carrying period, even in places where conventional socks cannot reach. Namely, the silver remains in the cotton thread of socks and becomes effective only when it is leaning on the skin.

Benefits at first sight:

• Certified antimicrobial efficiency, e.g. Funges on the feet and nails and effective against the smell of foot
• long-lasting effect
• Especially effective where conventional socks fail: between fingers
• Lake and Safe for Use In Everyday Life
• Made of 87% cotton, boiling resistant, washable to 60 ° C

Thus dr. Foot Silver Protect Finger Socks Rade:
Fifth, fingers on the legs and space between the fingers are especially subject to bacteria. Therefore, a cotton thread with a silver core in the front and fifth is installed. The bacteria kills the thread.

Spaces between toes are protected from shelters for bacteria and microbes. Preferred poor ventilation in footwear, hot and wet "greenhouse climate" prevails here with ideal conditions for germ breeding.

Finger socks improve the climate of the foot by spreading the space between the fingers. This change of microclimate - less temperature and minor moisture - exacerbating the conditions of life of harmful germs. The silver thread that lies directly on the skin can be found locally against the germ.

Frequently asked questions
When and who is most commonly used silver socks?

• For infection prevention
• for the prevention and control of the smell of foot, sweat feet
• In the working footwear to prevent foot infections and an unpleasant odor
• In contact with patients whose immune system is weakened or representing the risk of infection.

Isn't normal fingers sufficient?
Normal fingers without silver fibers are already step towards improving foot health, because they extend space between fingers and provide a balanced climate of foot and worse conditions for germs

How do socks with silver fingers differ from conventional socks with a silver end?
The usual socks comprise the whole foot, but do not remember between the fingers. As a result, the toes are pressed together and ventilation and moisturizing the space between the fingers are deteriorating. 

Why don't matter on the material labels?
The European Textile labeling decree does not provide for the option of labeling silver threads in material labeling.

How often can I wash my Dr. Foot Silver Protect before losing the effect?
The tests confirm that 99% of antimicrobial efficiency retains after 200 washes.

Used materials, maintenance and care

Basic knowledge of materials used in your footwear together with proper care and maintenance extends the life of your shoes.

Leather - Natural material most commonly used in shoe production and that has ideal properties for this purpose. The skin is porous, soft, absorbs and, somewhat, can be adapted to the individual form of the foot. The skin is not fully waterproof from the outside (climatic conditions) or inside (sweating). Therefore, you must properly care your leather shoes.

We distinguish several basic types of skin:

Polished leather - fine surface structure with small pores. Remove the dirt from the shoe using the corresponding brush or wet cloth and wipe them. Use a dedicated impregnation lotion or cream of the desired color. For occasional care (for example at work or travel), you can use self-covering sponges; However, they only polish the skin and cannot replace the corresponding care lotion.

Lacquered / painted skin - Leather with varnished and shiny surface. This type of skin is very susceptible to mechanical and chemical damage as far as moisture or temperature or freezing. Remove dirt from skin surface using a wet cloth and apply the appropriate care product intended for varnished and painted skin.

Coated / layered skin - Skin with foil or plastic layer on the front surface. Has similar properties as colored or lacquered skin. Use a wet cloth to clean and wipe dry or use cleaners intended for synthetic materials.

Nubuk Leather, Velor (Antelop) - It's sanded skin. Use rubber brush or products intended for antelope care for cleaning. It is necessary to apply the appropriate lotion for impregnation of this type of skin to increase waterproof.

Other leather - There are many types of skin coming in various colors and with different finishing processing. The typical property of this type of skin is that their surface changes over time. The skin with uneven surfaces have additional, usually another color below. The top coat is worn because it is exposed to external influences and then the real skin colors go. A different kind of skin is the one on which a dedicated mechanical surface area is wearing out to see the basic color and structure. The dedicated skin surface continues to shoot during use and the upper layer is peeling, releasing the material structure below. These changes occur very quickly and increases during use. This type of shoe quickly gets a patina or "used" look. These changes are desirable and not pose a reason for complaints. In no case do you apply creams or polishing products to such leather surfaces. Use colorless impregnation sprays and leave them to dry. Impregnation protects shoes from moisture and dirt; However, make sure you protect your shoes from excessive soiling because dirt cannot be easily removed.

Other synthetic and plastic materials - They are very similar to the category "Other leather". A typical property is a continuous change in its appearance during use. The top coat / color on exposed parts is quickly worn, peeling, shoots and starts to appear second contrasting color. These changes happen quite quickly and are desirable, because they create a trendy "used" look. It's not a mistake, the intention is to happen. The upper layer is subject to mechanical damage and dirt. Avoid significant dirty because dirt cannot be easily removed from this surface and may occur for permanent damage.

Textile - It is used for light and mostly summer and home footwear. Textile shoes while dry, clean the brush using appropriate textile care products, which will impregnate and point out color and partially protect shoes from dirt. Do not use textile footwear in a humid environment - this type of footwear is not resistant to external moisture.

Synthetic materials - Plastic materials, poromenes - These materials often remind the skin, but according to the properties, inferior to natural skin. For example, they only offer limited permeability and therefore increase sweating. This type of footwear requires very little maintenance. Plastic materials are painted, so surfaces are very susceptible to mechanical damage caused by wear. This mechanical damage does not constitute a reason for complaints. This type of stress will scrape the color from the surface and the original material color will be seen. Use a damp cloth with detergent to clean your shoes and wipe them.

Tire - Use a damp cloth with detergent to clean the shoes and wipe them. Waterproof membrane - Special material that provides water resistance while retaining permeability. First remove heavy dirt from the shoe with lukewarm water and sponge or brush. When dried, use the appropriate impregnation product.
