First introduced to the U.S. Military through<br />

hollow, enabling maximum thermal capacity. It<br />
is also strong and continues to insulate even<br />
when wet. Kentucky Royalty combines<br />
the qualities of alpaca with the latest in<br />
sock technology, superior ingredients<br />
plus great design. Socks are made<br />
in the USA, and Kentucky Royalty<br />
sources only U.S. ingredients,<br />

Kingwhale<br />
Devoted to saving resources<br />
up front by expending less of the<br />
earth’s resources even before<br />
recycling, Kingwhale says it’s<br />
developed a dye method that<br />
can save significant resources in production – like enough to<br />
power a typical U.S. house for a month with each fleece dye<br />
lot. The new L.I.T. (Low Impact Technology) provides savings<br />
of 15 percent less dyestuffs, 22 percent less electricity for<br />
heating and cooling, 50 percent less thermal energy to create<br />
steam and 60 percent less water over conventional dyeing, in<br />
turn, creating less waste products that must be recycled or<br />
reclaimed. It not only does so without sacrificing color<br />
quality or hand, but it adds enhanced softness, performance<br />
and after-care quality, says Kingwhale. L.I.T. relies<br />
on a special modification of the molecules of the polyester<br />
base during the construction of polyester fibers. The<br />
new method allows L.I.T. modified yarns to take on dye more<br />
quickly, using fewer dyestuffs and without the<br />
tremendous heat and pressure conventional<br />
dyeing requires. sales@kingwhale.com.tw<br />
