Base layer running
A base layer is essential for every running enthusiast. It transports the sweat that occurs when running away from the body and keeps the skin dry. The base layer should be selected depending on the temperature and personal needs. Lightweight, breathable materials are suitable for summer, while warming materials protect against the cold in winter. In our selection you are sure to find the right base layer for you.

What makes our cycling socks special
Double-layer compression cuff: Keeps the sock in place without constricting. An elastic band around the midfoot provides additional support.
Ventilation where it counts: A honeycomb structure across the instep lets heat and moisture escape, keeping your feet dry inside closed-toe cycling shoes.
Reinforced heel and toe: Targeted reinforcement at high-wear areas protects against friction and makes the sock more durable.
Made in the EU: All cycling socks are made in Portugal or the Czech Republic.
Road bike, gravel or winter – which sock for when?
Trace Cycling Socks "Club" & "Impulse" – for the whole year: The all-rounder for every ride, in two designs.
Trace Cycling AirFlow Socks – for summer: Extra breathable thanks to the honeycomb structure, for hot days and long climbs.
Trace Performance Merino Socks – for cold and wet days: 55% mulesing-free merino wool keeps feet warm, even when wet.
Gravel Socks – for rugged terrain: Made for gravel, dust, and long days off the road.
Fittingly
Complete your setup with overshoes for cold and wet days, cycling shorts with a chamois for long distances, and a cycling jersey that matches your socks.
FAQ
-
Road bike socks usually end about two inches above the ankle. This ensures a clean finish with the cycling shoe, prevents chafing on the Achilles tendon, and protects the ankle.
-
Heat can build up quickly in a closed cycling shoe. Ventilated zones across the instep allow warm air and moisture to escape. This keeps feet dry and reduces the risk of blisters and pressure points.
-
Merino naturally regulates temperature. However, our Trace Performance Merino Socks are made primarily for autumn and winter. For hot days, we recommend the Trace Cycling AirFlow Socks.
-
Wash at 30°C on a normal cycle, preferably inside out. Do not bleach, tumble dry or iron. This will help preserve the fit and fabric for longer.
