TCK Technology

For nearly half a century, Twin City Knitting Company, Inc. has maintained a reputation for innovative and quality socks in all areas of athleticism; and success has come with a simple business philosophy: Offer quality products at a fair price, and always give courteous service and dependable delivery. We embrace a straightforward motto: "Keep it simple; do it right; and do it better than anyone else." TCK is an American-owned company born and raised in Conover, North Carolina; and we continue to manufacture many premium products right here in the United States.

	Antimicrobial: Our Antimicrobial technology is best defined as built-in deodorant that effectively battles sock odor, even during periods of heavy perspiration. We achieve this by way of high-grade yarns with embedded antimicrobial agents (not weak and short-lived wash-in treatments) that act to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi, the typical culprits behind unpleasant odor. And, you can count on this protection for the life of the sock.
	Blister Control: Hot spots and blisters can be debilitating, so we offer a healthy dose of preventative in and through unique yarns that naturally reduce friction and wick away moisture, high-splice designs that provide extra shielding in problem areas, and/or dependable liners that add a base layer of protection.
	Climate Control: A common misconception about merino wool, when used in socks or apparel, is that it's best-suited for the cold. In truth, however, this natural fiber is more of an insulator as opposed to a mere "warmer." When worn next to the body, It boasts an impressive faculty for regulating body temperature (i.e. like insulation in a home, it protects against cold in the winter and heat in the summer). Such regulation is further enhanced by merino's natural ability to wick away moisture and retain its insulating properties when wet. Thus, it can be for the skin all year long just what it is for the sheep in the pasture: CLIMATE CONTROL. When you see the Climate Control logo associated with any of our products, know that you are getting the best and softest merino wool we could get our hands on; and it can be worn year-round and in all types of weather.
	Compression: Compression zones in the ankle and/or arch of a sock provide a higher level of support, thereby reducing foot fatigue and aiding circulation. These zones also help prevent slippage inside the shoe and insure a proper fit for the life of the sock.
	Green: We run the gamut of environmental stewardship with products derived from renewable resources, recycled materials, and/or some combination of both. Moreover, we've proven that this can be done without compromising functionality or the superior quality and innovation that has characterized TCK products for nearly half a century. With Slog Series Green, you get a BETTER SOCK, and we all get a BETTER EARTH.
	proDRI: Twin City products bearing the proDri logo are constructed with carefully selected pro-grade fabrics known for their hydrophobic, wicking (i.e. the ability to transport moisture away from the skin) and moisture management attributes. These products retain their insulating qualities, even when wet; and they act to help keep your feet dry. A dry foot retains warmth in the winter and coolness in the summer, and the absence of moisture next to the skin helps to minimize the risk of hot spots and blisters. On top of all this, our proDri fabrics have been put through rigorous abrasion testing at the Hosiery Technology Center in Hickory, North Carolina, so they're durable and resilient. With proDri, you get a quick-drying sock that keeps sweaty feet comfortable and won't fall apart.
