Description
All-rounder for heat and movement
The Falke TK2 Explore Cool Short is a short sock designed for emergency services, bushcrafters and outdoor enthusiasts who need reliable footwear even in hot temperatures and during high levels of activity. Optimised for light to medium mountain terrain, it performs well in scenarios such as observation posts, patrols or hikes in the countryside.
Design & fit
The TK2 Explore Cool Short impresses with its sophisticated cut and precise fit, which is specially designed for active movement in the field. The ankle-length short cut ensures that the sock only extends minimally beyond the shaft, thus guaranteeing maximum mobility in light footwear or mid-height boots, while the heel remains reliably protected. Their anatomical left/right construction supports a wrinkle-free fit, reduces friction points and effectively prevents blisters, even during long marches. This is complemented by medium-thick padding, which is specifically placed on the ball of the foot and heel. It noticeably cushions impact forces without creating additional volume in the shoe.
Sole & layer structure
The sole and layer structure of the TK2 Explore Cool Short is based on a durable three-layer system that is tailored to the stresses and strains of outdoor and professional use. A functional inner layer works directly against the skin, consistently absorbing moisture and wicking it away to the outside, so that the foot stays dry even during high levels of activity. This is followed by a cushioning core that provides targeted support in the ball and heel areas and reliably cushions hard impacts without impairing direct ground feel. The outer layer is robust, ensuring stability and shape retention, and can withstand even contact with abrasive materials such as work boots or trekking boots. This sophisticated layered concept combines comfort, protection and durability in a compact design.
Material
The material mix of the TK2 Explore Cool Short is designed for maximum functionality in use. Around 42% polypropylene forms the basis for a particularly quick-drying and moisture-wicking foundation that keeps the skin permanently dry. This is complemented by around 30% Lyocell, a botanically derived fibre with a cooling effect that ensures a pleasantly fresh feeling when worn. Polyamide, at around 15%, makes the fabric durable and guarantees shape retention even under heavy use, while a further 12% polyester additionally supports quick drying and stabilises the fabric. Finally, a small amount of elastane, around 1%, ensures flexibility and a secure fit without causing pressure points. This combination of materials ensures efficient moisture management that reliably wicks away sweat, prevents overheating and ensures a constant, dry foot climate even during long marches or in poorly ventilated shoes.
Advantages
The TK2 Explore Cool Short combines sophisticated materials and construction to create a sock that performs well even under the most demanding conditions. The robust material mix and strategically placed padding guarantee abrasion resistance and dimensional stability, so that long marches, dirt or moisture do not affect the fit. Particularly in tactical operations, the heel padding protects against hard impacts, while the short cut minimises overheating and prevents pressure points on the boot shaft. This makes the sock equally suitable for emergency services in changing terrain, bushcrafting and multi-day hikes.
