Why Do We Really Wear Or Need Socks?

Nobody really thinks a lot about socks as they are such a basic, essential item that is just always there. Socks are mostly taken for granted but they are an essential part of our daily lives. If it were not for socks our feet would have been cold, stinky, and full of blisters and blister wounds. Yes, not only do socks keep our feet warm and dry and clean, but they also keep them blister-free and young.

Socks can also increase the lifeline of your footwear remarkably as they keep them away from your sweat. Some research also argues that wearing socks at night can ensure a good and healthy sleep.

History Of Socks For Men And Women

The first sock was invented in the 8th century BC Greece where they were actually modelled using leather or tangled animal hair. The first fitted socks that were sewed with woven fabric was seen in the 2nd century AD by the Romans. Socks were so popular in ancient Egypt that several pieces of linen, as well as split-toe socks, were found during excavations along with gold and other jewels.

In the middle ages, socks became a fashion statement with various prints and designs available. This was the time when the trousers were getting shorter and socks were getting longer and more expensive. The flashier and longer your socks, the higher the status symbol you hold in society.

All The Different Types Of Socks You Should Know About

Dress Socks

Just like the name suggests, dress socks are meant to be worn with formal clothes like Tuxedos, business suits, and evening wear. Dress socks are often calf or over the calf length and are made using lightweight and pleasant fabrics. These socks are usually available in neutral colours like black, brown, blue, and grey.

Casual Socks

Your everyday socks that can be worn on all informal occasions are called casual socks. These socks can again be of any lengths, colours, and prints of your choice. Casual socks are usually printed with fun and quirky prints all over them.

Sports Socks

Made with a blend of cotton and spandex to get that extra stretch, sports socks are specially built for maximum comfort and support. Sport socks are usually over the calf or knee-length and are ribbed, meaning it does not fall down during a rigorous workout. These ribbed panels also assure that your sock is breathable and provide ventilation.

Winter Or Thermal Socks

Normal socks are not enough to keep your feet warm during the cold winter season. Your feet need extra insulation to keep them warm and cosy. Winter socks are generally made with wool or acrylic fibres. These socks are so comfortable, breathable, and will keep you warm all winter long.

Loafer Socks

Socks that cannot be seen when you are wearing a loafer is called loafer socks. These socks are very short and give an illusion of no socks at all. Loafer socks are ideal socks for women who wear belly shoes.

Leg Warmer Socks

The only type of socks that are not made for the feet but start at the ankles and go till the knees are called leg warmer socks. These are made for the biting cold seasons where even thermal socks are not enough. Like winter socks, leg warmers are also made with either wool or acrylic fibres. You can use leg warmer socks for layering during winters.

Grip Or Anti-Slip Socks

These are a type of socks that come with tiny pieces of rubber or plastic attached to the sole of the socks to prevent them from slipping. An anti-slip sock is most preferred by men and women who involve in yoga or pilates.

Anklet Socks
