- Technical socks have qualities and designs adapted to their application.
- Socks with moisture-wicking material are important to keep the foot dry and warm.
- Socks with air ducts on the bottom and top provide better ventilation.
- Technical socks are designed to reduce friction and chafing.
- Eg. Mountain shoes with poor breathability make greater demands on the characteristics of the socks.
- Technical socks have a better fit, are more comfortable and provide a better training experience.
- Wool is in a class of its own, as wool can absorb 30% liquid without feeling moist.
- Wool keeps you dry and warms more than any other technical material.
- Quality socks with wool often have a wool percentage between 30 and 60%.
- Cotton socks should be avoided because the sweat is absorbed into the sock. Wet socks increase the risk of chafing.
- The thickness of the sock may vary from thin to medium to thick depending on temperature and activity.
- For hot days and indoor training, choose a thin technical sock with good ventilation.
- For activities and outdoor life in the summer months, a thin sock with a wool blend will provide good temperature regulation.
- In cold weather, follow Ulvang's wool-wetting rules and use a thin woolen sock inside and a terrified and thicker sock on the outside. This provides extra heat and insulation and prevents galling.
- Make sure you have plenty of room for your socks in your shoe. A narrow shoe gives poorer blood circulation and you freeze more easily on your feet.
- Make sure the sock sits perfectly on the foot and has the right size from toe to heel.
- Choose socks that are slightly higher than the shoe itself. This reduces the likelihood of chafing and discomfort directly on the foot.
- For running, semi-tall models fit with tightness in the right places.
- Ankle socks can also be used in sneakers if have good enough tension and do not slip into the shoe.
- For ski boots, alpine boots and mountain shoes, you can choose higher varieties with warm material combinations that still breathe.
