Xerotherm Socks
£36.00
The Fourth Element Xerotherm Socks are high-performance thermal baselayer socks designed for drysuit diving. Made with Polartec® Powerstretch® fabric, they provide lightweight warmth, fast moisture wicking, low bulk comfort, and reliable thermal protection even in cold and wet conditions.
Description
The Xerotherm Socks are an essential part of the Fourth Element thermal layering system, designed to deliver exceptional warmth, comfort, and moisture management for cold-water and drysuit diving. Constructed using advanced Polartec® Powerstretch® fabric originally developed for NASA, these socks trap a thin layer of insulating air next to the skin, offering superior thermal protection compared to water alone.
Engineered for versatility, the Xerotherm Socks can be worn as a standalone thermal layer or under thicker drysuit socks for additional insulation in extreme conditions. The highly efficient fabric structure provides the fastest wicking performance in the Fourth Element range, rapidly moving moisture away from the skin to maintain warmth and dryness throughout the dive.
The lightweight, low-bulk design ensures a comfortable fit inside drysuit boots without restricting movement or adding unnecessary volume. Flatlocked seams reduce friction and improve comfort during extended wear, while the breathable fleece structure continues to perform even when damp.
Trusted by professional dive teams and tested in extreme Arctic environments, the Xerotherm Socks deliver reliable performance, durability, and thermal efficiency for serious cold-water divers.
