INEOS GRENADIERS 2026 UNISEX VORTEX 2.0 SOCKS
Aerodynamic socks designed for competition and high-intensity training in extreme heat conditions, where every detail matters. Featuring a technical structure tested in wind tunnels by WorldTour teams, they combine a perforated upper section that optimizes ventilation with an extended 22 cm height in compliance with UCI standards.
The internal silicone print at the upper cuff ensures a perfect fit without the need for hems, creating a “second-skin” effect that enhances both aerodynamics and comfort. The foot section is made with Fulgar® Q-SKIN® yarn with silver ions, providing bacteriostatic properties, odor control and efficient moisture management, keeping feet fresh and dry even in the most demanding conditions.
Thanks to their high elasticity, anatomical fit with asymmetric toe boxes, and reinforced heel and toe areas, they deliver superior comfort throughout the entire ride. A technical, lightweight and highly functional garment for cyclists seeking uncompromising performance and precision.

DEVELOPMENT
Fulgar® Q-SKIN® is a polyamide fiber with silver ions that provide bacteriostatic properties, promote moisture dissipation, prevent unwanted odors and maintain the skin’s natural balance. This fiber retains its performance characteristics over time and after many washes, and is also OEKO-TEX certified, free from harmful chemicals for human health.
With an extended height permitted within UCI standards, the socks are made from a textured fabric with a high elastane content to achieve high elasticity and low wind resistance.
Their perforated structure ensures optimal temperature regulation.
Their perforated structure ensures optimal temperature regulation.
The internal non-slip silicone print at the top of the cuff guarantees secure hold throughout the ride, creating a “second-skin” effect thanks to the absence of a hem.
The junction between the foot and the upper section uses a low-profile seam that increases comfort across the instep.
Asymmetric toe boxes enhance adaptation to the natural anatomy of the feet.
They incorporate an innovative heel and toe reinforcement system to improve comfort and softness to the touch.
