near earth, race day sock, crew length, white.

we love near earth as it is all about connection; between feet and shoes, runners and the earth, and between great design and performance that doesn't come at the expense of our environment.

the race day sock is an ultralight, secure, and form-fitting sock made specifically for racing. Its design focuses on fit, fusing ultra-fine breathable fibers with strong, targeted compression, resulting in a thin yet extremely strong structure.

in essence, the race day sock is engineered for the thin and snug uppers of your carbon plate shoes. Its targeted compression makes the sock truly form-fitting, with a seamless upper toe box, a true anatomical footbed and light protection in the forefoot where you need it most.

targeted compression meets ultra-light fibers for minimal friction, great moisture-wicking and a cooling long distance performance.

made with econyl® yarn from regenerated nylon waste and knitted with 100% renewable energy, waste recycling and micro-plastic filtration.

engineered in germany. sourced and manufactured locally by some of europe’s best garment makers.

utilizing a special lycra® blend and fusing multiple knitting techniques, the rds manages to be both ultralight and durable in structure.

the rds 1.0 is both our lightest and strongest sock at the same time, combining an absolute minimum of friction with a maximum of breathability and moisture-wicking. following more than 50 prototypes and a rigorous testing process, we're incredibly proud of its fit and feel. but it's not only our most technical sock, it's also the most environmentally friendly sock we ever made.
