PRIMEVAL
Capturing the Desolate, Primeval, and Winding Forests
The concept of the "PRIMEVAL" collection is grounded in desolate paths of Taiwan's intermediary mountains that are rarely traveled, even by hikers. Usnea, sedges, epiphytes, and other ancient trees intersect in these primeval forests to construct a magical sight of abundance. The winding roots anchored deep into the soil are transformed into this "PRIMEVAL" hike trek sock collection with vivid jacquard prints that bring the imageries of trees and roots onto textile. Dark hues such as black, brown, and grey are used to symbolize a tree's circle of life. Decaying branches, rolling mountains, earth and stones, and interwoven vines are elements that pervade the overall visual aesthetics, transforming the immense and variegated primeval forest into a clear, transparent organism.
A Continuation of nozzle quiz's Subtropical Sock Wear Solution
The "PRIMEVAL" collection is designed for Taiwan's mountainous regions: superwashed Merino Wool® is used to strengthen anti-shrinkage properties and eliminate the prickly sensations of wool, delivering a soft, delicate textile that cannot be found in existing hiking socks. The Merino Wool® is highly absorbent and whisks away any unpleasant scents, helping hikers stay dry and clean during their hike. Strong thermal regulating properties mean that nozzle quiz's hiking socks can prevent heat loss through the feet and ensure cool and comfort in scorching climates. For the "PRIMEVAL" collection, nozzle quiz continues to incorporate high-quality functional textiles such as Skinlife® and Lycra® for antibacterial properties, odor control, coverage, and elasticity. An exclusive structure for decompression in the soles and joints is also adopted to deliver the optimal hiking sock wear solution.
※ Use laundry bag with a soft detergent and wash at a slow speed to avoid pilling caused by rubbing.
Functional Sock Solutions
Merino wool®
Made in Australia and processed with the Superwash Treatment method to prevent shrinkage and to strip the wool of its scaly surface for a gentler touch. We also pursue a softer textile in twist levels and production to prevent blisters over the course of a long like. Merino Wool can transport large quantities of perspiration and odorants away from the surface of the textile until washed, keeping the wearer dry as it suppresses odor. Merino Wool also helps regulate body temperature, keeping the wearer warm and preventing the loss of heat from your feet but also maintaining cool and comfortable temperatures in warmer weathers.
Forest Trail - The Sock Solution for Hikers in Subtropical Climates
We have conducted various on-site tests with HANCHOR, who is familiar with hikers' needs and have listed requirements on functionality that we, as a sock solution provider, have resolved to fulfill in our proposed solutions. We will be targeting humid, subtropical climates outside of Europe and the States, focusing on delivering dry comfort and regulating temperatures. Merino Wool® was therefore selected because it can remove moisture, offer ventilation, and regulate body temperatures to ensure that your feet stays dry and comfortable in any weather.

Merly®Skinlife is made from silver microparticles and has a permanent antibacterial effect on garments with effectivity proven to last after 100 washes.
