“What kind of socks are good? “” What texture of socks is more comfortable and durable？”
How can we choose high-quality socks for these questions? To choose good socks, the first step is to understand the ingredients of the socks.
Cotton: Socks with a cotton content of over 75% are pure cotton socks, while socks with a cotton content of 85% are generally very high-quality cotton socks. In addition to adding cotton, cotton socks also require the addition of some functional fibers to maintain their elasticity, fastness, and comfort. Spandex, nylon, acrylic, polyester, and other functional fibers are very common.
Spandex: It has high elasticity and strong elasticity, and its stretching length can reach 5-7 times that of the original fiber. Textile products added with spandex can maintain the original contour. If spandex is included in the composition of socks, it can create elasticity and retraction, and make them easier to wear, making them more suitable for the feet.
Nylon: It is the first synthetic fiber to appear in the world. The emergence of nylon has transformed the appearance of textiles, marking a significant breakthrough in the synthetic fiber industry and an important milestone in polymer chemistry.
Polyester: Compared to natural fibers, polyester has good elasticity and fluffiness, and woven socks are relatively lightweight. However, polyester has low moisture content, poor breathability, poor dyeing ability, easy pilling, and easy staining.
The size specifications of socks are based on the size of the bottom of the socks (from the heel to the tip of the socks). The general size is indicated on the trademark. It is better to choose an equal or slightly larger size based on the length of the foot, rather than a smaller size.
