Wearing the wrong type of socks can lead to foot blisters, chafing, corns, and other issues, it is of great important to choose the suitable running socks. Some runners run in the wrong socks for years before they realize how much better their feet could feel in the right type of socks.There are many different kinds of running socks with varied material, thicknesses and sizes.Here are some tips on what to look for.
Choose Synthetic Materials
In the summer, it¡¯s easy for runner to cause blisters. One of the best way to avoid blisters is to choose suitable socks with appropriate materials.
The best running socks are ones that are made from synthetic materials such as polyester, acrylic, and CoolMax because they¡¯ll wick away moisture. Look for a breathable, anti-chafe material. By the way, you should stay away from 100% cotton socks. Once cotton gets wet, it stays wet. So, when your feet sweat or you step in a puddle, the moisture won¡¯t get wicked away.
When shopping for running shoes, make sure you try on shoes with the socks you¡¯re going to be running in because some socks will require you to go up a half-size.
Other Important Sock Features
Another great feature is padded soles, which can give your heels some extra cushion. Other things to look for are a seam-free toe section, which can further reduce your risk of blisters, and an elastic arch lock, which helps keep your sock in place.
If you prefer no-show socks, just make sure that they have a tab that goes above your running shoe and over your Achilles, so your shoe isn¡¯t digging into or irritating your skin.
