Checklist Socks for Soccer Players

Size
  • The socks should reach below the knee, fit sn ugly and not slip even during intense activity. When playing, they also need to warm the muscles.
  • The appropriate size of soccer socks depends on the shoe size for most manufacturers. The issued products usually go from size 39 to 45.
  • However, the size designation of the socks varies depending on the manufacturer.
  • When choosing a size, keep in mind that the socks must be pulled over shin guards during the game.
Design
  • Soccer socks are available without feet, with web or with foot.
  • If you like to wear your own socks in his size , offer models without foot or with bar. Sometimes the foot part of socks that fit well on the calves does not fit perfectly.
Material
  • Soccer socks are usually made of cotton and synthetic fibers such as polyester, nylon, polyamide or spandex.
  • Synthetic materials have the advantage of drying quickly, which is especially beneficial for footballers who sweat a lot.
  • Nevertheless, make sure that the cotton content is low for a pleasant feeling on the skin. In the models we suggest, this is 27 – 48%.
  • Your socks should be as breathable as possible for comfortable playing. 360° C mesh inserts have proven their worth here.
Cleaning
  • Especially active soccer players should wash their socks every day, or after each use, to prevent strong odors and the accumulation of bacteria.
  • Observe the maximum washing temperature specified by the manufacturer. Socks with a high synthetic fiber content may not be washed at temperatures hotter than 40° C.
