Definition of Socks?
A sock is a piece of clothing worn on the feet and often covering the ankle or some part of the calf. Some types of shoes or boots are typically worn over socks. In ancient times, socks were made from leather or matted animal hair. In the late 16th century, machine-knit socks were first produced. Until the 1800s, both hand-made and machine-knit socks were manufactured, with the latter technique becoming more common in the 19th century, and continuing until the modern day.

Socks by Activity
Athletic/multisport socks: This broad category ranges from traditional white gym socks (updated with moisture-wicking fabrics) to technical socks intended for cross-training and running. Most provide some sole cushioning but have minimal bulk overall.
Running socks: These range from thin liner socks with very little padding to those with dense cushioning in the heel and ball of the foot. Some runners prefer less padding for a better fit in their shoes; others like more padding for added cushioning and reduced foot fatigue.
Walking socks: These offer cushioning and moisture-wicking properties for fitness walkers.
Casual socks: Though distinguished by their casual styling (colors, stripes, etc.), these lightweight socks, at least those found at REI, usually feature performance fabrics such as merino wool.
Lightweight hiking socks: These relatively thin socks provide a good fit for hikers with high-volume feet (i.e., feet that are wide or have a high instep). They wick away moisture and offer modest cushioning in the heel and ball of the foot. They are thinner, especially on the top, than midweight socks and can be worn with or without liner socks.
Midweight backpacking socks: Their additional thickness gives a good fit to hikers with low-volume feet (i.e., feet that are narrow or have a low instep). They offer more padding in the heel and ball of the foot than do lightweight hiking socks, plus cushioning on the top of the foot and leg for comfort on long trails. They can be worn with or without liner socks.
Mountaineering socks: These heavyweight socks are your thickest option, with extra bulk and padding for cold, rugged conditions.
Ski and snowboard socks: These are padded in the shin area and usually underfoot as well. Otherwise, they are thin and not intended to provide significant warmth; rather they are meant to protect your feet from pressure points and rubbing inside the boots. Their design also serves to not interfere with the energy needed to make quick turns.
Padding: Look for padding on the heel and ball of the foot for cushioning and protection. Be sure the amount of padding does not make your shoe too tight. Padding is created either by increasing the density of the weave in those areas, or in some cases by weaving long-wearing materials like acrylic into those areas. This extra padding can be a real foot-saver on hard trips over rough terrain.
Arch reinforcements: Some socks offer a tighter, reinforced weave in the arch to improve support. This is primarily helpful if you have high arches, but can be useful for those with regular arches or flat feet as well. Without proper support, arches can develop arch pain or even plantar fasciitis, which can cause severe pain in your heels. Keep in mind, though, that your footwear is the key factor for arch support.
Height: In many cases, this is merely a personal or style preference. However, crew and quarter socks do offer abrasion protection from your boot tops, so we recommend socks at least this tall when you're wearing mid- or high-cut boots.
Fit: To get the right size, look for manufacturer-specific size information on any REI.com product page. When you try on socks, pay attention to how they fit in the toe and the heel. Correct length is the key criteria. If a sock is too long, it will bunch up over your toes. If it's too short, the sock will slide down into the shoe and feel tight. For heavily padded socks, try them on with your shoes to ensure they fit comfortably without making your shoes too tight.
Different Sock Materials
Cotton
Cotton socks are extremely popular and are often worn during hot/warm weather.
Usually, cotton is soft and comfortable. Hence, cotton socks can be expensive.
In addition, cotton is lightweight, but a strong material. And therefore, when it gets combined with other materials such as polyester or nylon, it includes elasticity and becomes more durable.
Even though they are appropriate for a casual and formal wear, cotton socks are not advised to wear for sporting as it holds moisture and odour, which could form blisters and fungus on your feet.
Wool
Wool Socks parallel cotton socks in their popularity. However, wool holds moisture and odour more than cotton.
From a usage perspective, wool has insulating characteristics to keep you warm. Hence, it's worn more regularly during winter/cold weather.
In addition, wool is breathable, water resistant, wrinkle resistant, holds the shape well and comfortable.
Bamboo
Bamboo socks are a new innovation.
They have many advantages, such as
Softness
Sustainability
Lightness
Breathability
Cosiness
Thermal regulation
Durability
Maintaining moisture while keeping the feet fresh, clean and cool.
The only con of Bamboo socks is that they may start to pill sooner than other materials. So, you have to maintain them well.
Due these characteristics, bamboo socks can be worn anytime no matter if it is for casual use or even for sports.
Synthetics (Nylon, Polyester & Etc)
Synthetics, such as nylon and polyester socks are a relatively new innovation.
They absorb moisture, dry fast and keep the feet fresh. So, these kinds of socks have been recommended to preferably use for day to day activities, compared to cotton, wool, or bamboo.
Silk
Silk, made from protein fibre in silkworms, is known to be smooth, soft, light weight and moisture absorbing.
In addition, silk socks have insulating characteristics. Hence, they are used in winter and also mixed in synthetic socks.
Nylon
Nylon, or Polyamide, is the first synthetic fiber in the world. Its most outstanding property is its exceptional strength and the resulting high durability, 10 times more than cotton, and 20 times more than wool. It is also stronger than polyester.
Nylon is abrasion and water resistant. It does not absorb moisture as well as cotton, so sweat is trapped against the skin. It is not breathable, hence not a good choice for sweaty feet, as the sweat or wet environment creates a breeding ground for odor and fungal infection.
Acrylic
Acrylic, is a synthetic fiber and usually priced lower than natural fibers. The greatest advantage that acrylic material provides is its lightness, softness and warmth, but not as warm as wool. It feels like wool, and can be made to mimic other fibers, such as cotton.
Polypropylene
Polypropylene, or Olefin, is a synthetic fiber with good durability. It is light, stain resistant and has great moisture-wicking quality. Compared to other synthetic fibers, polypropylene possesses a higher thermal insulating power.
Tencel (Lyocell)
Tencel is a branded Lyocell fiber, which is a cellulose fiber made from wood pulp of trees such as eucalyptus, oak and Birch, which is dissolved in a non-toxic solvent. It is a biodegradable fiber and its production process is eco-friendly.
4 Health Benefits To Wearing Socks
They Help Prevent Odour
Mostly when we are running, walking or even seated behind our work desks, our feet normally generate a lot of sweat. It is estimated that our feet have a high number of sweat glands which release a huge amount of sweat and if this is not absorbed properly, the results will be smelly shoes and feet. Wearing socks however helps with the absorption of the sweat which in return helps prevent the unpleasant odour.
They provide extra cushioning to the feet
Our shoe insoles do get worn out and this makes the shoes hard and uncomfortable at times. This hard surface can be bad for your health and should be avoided at all cost. While at it, although replacing the insoles will be a great idea, wearing quality socks will also provide an extra and much needed padding to the feet thus protecting from injuries and friction to the feet.
Socks prevents against some diseases
Diseases or infections such as fungal and athlete’s foot are very common for many people. These can be very uncomfortable and costly to treat but wearing quality socks will go a long way in preventing against them. You should however wear socks made of material that effectively absorbs the sweat to keep the feet dry thus lowering the risk of getting some of these infections.
They help keep your feet soft
Wearing socks will help keep your feet smooth as they protect you from elements such as dust. Normally, many people who do not wear socks experience the hardening of the feet which results in eventual cracking. However, wearing socks will help prevent against this thus keeping the feet healthy and pretty.
Why wearing the right sock is important
Protection
Socks provide protection by adding a layer between the shoe and your foot, easing friction and preventing blisters. Modern socks also have cushioned soles and padding to provide even more comfort.
Moisture control
The feet release moisture through sweat every day, which ends up sitting in the shoe and causing the skin on your feet to become water logged. This is both uncomfortable and unhealthy for your feet as it can lead to fungus growing and blisters occurring. Socks made of the right fibres will absorb excess moisture. Bamboo and wool are great examples of this as they are both natural fibres which absorb excessive moisture from your foot. An example of a not-so-great moisture control sock, but is still highly popular is the cotton sock.
Comfort
Socks today are a lot more advanced than the old days. They’re a little bit fancy with features and advanced technology in the fibres for quick drying or anti-odour. There are also socks with arch support, heel contours, cushioned soles, cushioned toes, loose tops, compression socks, and more. These features are generally also reflected in the purchase price.
Odour reducing
Wool and bamboo are proven to reduce the amount of odour releasing bacteria from the foot. Bamboo also has the advanced advantage of being highly antibacterial, particularly when interwoven with a silver. The benefit of woollen socks are well known by outdoor adventurers and bamboo has also proven its resilience and comfort over the years.
Types of socks available today
Compression socks
Compression socks have a latex or spandex component that adds additional elasticity to the sock to help promote blood flow to your heart and prevent your feet and ankles from swelling. They help to boost circulation and reduce the incidence of blood clots and varicose veins. They can also be used in the case of acute swelling from an ankle or foot injury if necessary.
Diabetic socks
Something I will discuss with patients weekly is the diabetic sock. You obviously don’t need to be diabetic to wear them or purchase them but the features in them are highly ideal for diabetics or anyone who has circulatory issues and finds their normal socks are cutting into the skin too much causing pain and wounds. Diabetes socks are specially designed with looser tops, fitting well around the foot and ankle without being too tight so that blood circulation is maintained and supported. They have moisture-wicking properties to keep the feet dry and warm.
Wool socks – anti-bacterial
Wool is an exceptional insulating fibre and can absorb one third of its weight in moisture. With natural anti-bacterial properties, wool is also resilient and ideal for many hours or even days of wear at work and the outdoors. The one prohibitive factor with woollen socks for the average person is that it can be a little pricey when compared to the other styles on the market. Before you turn away and look at the cheaper variety you should know that you get a lot of bang for your buck with these because they are so resilient, compared to other socks they have almost twice the life span of a cheaper sock in addition to the other features.
Bamboo socks – soft and resilient, keeping feet dry
Bamboo is a resilient fibre, has natural antibacterial properties and will keep your feet dry. If you prefer a softer feel, then bamboo is an excellent choice for work and the outdoors. These socks are increasing in popularity and if you’re environmentally conscious are known to be highly sustainable. They have come down in price considerably over the last few years due to their popularity and now that we know the features for socks have been so ideal, manufacturers are also creating undergarments like singlets and underpants with bamboo.
Cotton socks – not so good at moisture wicking
Cotton socks are wonderful for everyday wear for light activities. You’re probably wearing them right now. And why wouldn’t you be? Cheap, comfy, and easily replenished at the supermarket if need be, cotton is a very popular choice for a reason. However, when cotton gets wet, it doesn’t dry quickly and your feet can stay wet all day. We suggest avoiding cotton socks if you have any problems with foot pain, fungus, blisters and generally sweaty or smelly feet. Opt for bamboo, wool, or a blended fibre instead.
