Sneaker without socks: GIESSWEIN's secret for ultimate comfort
Sneakers without socks? GIESSWEIN Merino Runners make it possible – breathable, odour-neutral and super comfortable, whatever the weather.
Barefoot in trainers? For many, this sounds like a taboo – but only until you've tried GIESSWEIN's Merino trainers. Thanks to the highest quality Merino wool, you can wear our shoes without socks – without any sweating, unpleasant odours and with maximum comfort. Whether it's the heat of summer or cool autumn days, Merino Runners adapt perfectly to your feet and the temperature. In this article, we reveal why our trainers are a real highlight when worn without socks – and why Merino Runners could become your new everyday hero.

Merino wool – a natural material with high-tech properties
Merino wool is a true wonder of nature. It is temperature-regulating, breathable and antibacterial – properties that make it the perfect material for trainers that you want to wear barefoot. In summer, it cools your feet, and in winter, it warms them – without making you sweat or freeze.
Another plus point: the antibacterial effect of merino wool prevents bacteria and unpleasant odours from forming in the first place. That means fresh feet – even without socks. At the same time, the soft natural material feels incredibly comfortable on the skin, giving you the feeling of walking on clouds.
Out and about without socks: comfort that makes all the difference
