STAY COOL

VINT TECHNOLOGY

ANETIK's precise knit fabric construction that allows Maximum Breathability, while also maintaining UPF 30+ Sun Protection. 

In Hot Weather, VINT Technology allows body temperature heat to move freely out through the fabric, while external airflow is able to flow swiftly in through the fabric. That important Airflow Combination allows evaporative cooling on the skin, wicks sweat, and keeps the user amazingly cool and comfortable in the most extreme heat and sun.

STAY COOL

VINT TECHNOLOGY

In Cooler Weather, VINT Technology provides amazing performance as a lightweight "active second layer" or "next to ski base layer". Both of these uses provide amazing natural body temperature regulation by allowing hot air to move out away from the body, and external airflow in through the fabric. Wicking sweat, keeping the layer dry, and balancing optimal body temperature as needed.

STAY PROTECTED

UPF30+ SUN PROTECTION

ANETIK's 97% Sun Protection is provided by the knitted weave of the fabric. That density of the fabric's knitted weave is what provides the user's UV Protection over the skin and that Sun Protection functionality is permanent. It does not "wear off". There is a reality of natural fabric wear that happens to all fabrics over extended use and heavy exposure to the elements, but ANETIK's general Sun Protection benefits are built into the fabric structure. 

STAY PROTECTED

UPF30 SUN PROTECTION

ANETIK does not apply supplemental wash of chemicals for temporary effects like cool touch feel, antimicrobial, insect repellent, etc. Those noted chemical additive washes slowly wash out of the fabric (most last only 10 washes total) Chemicals also wash off onto the user so we focus on staying away from all chemical additive fabric treatments for those reasons.

Great sock. Spectacular customer service.

The socks met all of my expectations - the customer service went WAY above and beyond when I had questions about fitting my decidedly non-standard physique.

Greatest invention!

These are the best thing out on the water for my fiancé when fishing/diving. I'm super jealous every time he's wearing these while my feet are being fried! PLEASE MAKE A VERSION OF THESE AS LEGGINGS FOR WOMEN!

fit?

They're great, EXCEPT, they don't stay up. Really frustrating if you're walking around.

Really cool

Like the socks, seem like they will work great for biking around Mackinac Island! Haven't tried them in action yet, but did try on and the material is really nice, cool feeling.

UVF 50 would be much better—UV 30 still allows for sunburn.

All though i ordered a the iced camo color and got the grey ones instead, i do like the way they fit and breath.

Hidden gem

I’ve had the same pair of Shade Socks for almost 3 years and finally decided to buy my second pair. The material and craftsmanship is second to none. I’ve worn them on my kayak in 100 plus degree temps and they have provided all the protection I could ask for. Don’t sleep on these!

Unbelievably comfortable

I wore these on a long whale watch by Pacific Whale Foundation on Maui. I never knew I had them on.
I found your guidance on caring for them helpful. Mahalo

A lifesaver

The the UV protected socks are incredible like them a lot, they are a lifesaver I spend a lot of hours on the water would like to know if you guys would design a logo on a wrap for me to install on my Ranger so I can give you guys advertisement? Again thanks a lot for the product

Shade socks

These socks are first of all comfortable. Their cooling effect was amazing. I didn’t even know they were there. I stayed out all day and my legs were 100% protected from the sun! I have very sun sensitive skin A great product! I can wear shorts again!

E
Edward

These were great and very comfortable to wear and protected from sun as advertised.The only problem that I noticed is that they are very thin and are prone to being snagged/ripped. I have two slight tears in mine after three days. For 40 bucks a pair I’d hope they’d last a bit longer

Almost Perfect

I love everything about them except that they are not pants/tights.Any discomfort or problems with them slipping down would be solved as pants. Having my feet and legs covered while rowing or fishing is crucial and these socks are great for that, until they fall down.

Shade socks, slide down with movement

These socks fit well and are very light and comfortable. Unfortunately they slide down as you move around. Walking around or paddling ,my Hobie kayak would cause them to come loose and slide down. A garter belt would solve the problem, but who wants to do that.

My socks came with a stain

The fit is loose and most importantly my socks had a red stain on them out the box.

Comfortable and Convenient

Perfect for keeping sun off my legs. More convenient than long underwear or tights. I was concerned that they would droop, or be too tight on my thighs. No need for concern, they are very comfortable.

Amazing

Incredibly comfortable right out of the package! They did their job of protecting my legs from the sun. An added bonus was they protected my legs from the sawgrass and little bugs out here in the Everglades. They are a must for SUP fishing and kayak fishing

ANETIK Socks/Leggings

I purchased two pair several weeks ago primarily for two purposes while kayak/fishing in my Hobie Outback: 1: sun protection on my legs 2. keep mosquitos and no seeums at bay 3. to allow me to pee while sitting in my yakThe ANETIK leggings are affective for those reasons; however, I cannot get them to stay "up" on me after several hours sitting, especially when wet. I have tried inexpensive garters with little success.
