Believe it or not, the type of sock you choose for your sport can make a big difference in your comfort, safely and even performance. The main functions of quality athletic socks are to reduce friction, provide appropriate cushioning and keep the foot dry, all of which reduce the risk of developing either blisters or athlete's foot.
Athletic socks come in a variety of styles and materials from cotton to wool and everything in between.
Why Not Cotton Socks for Cycling?
Cotton socks are not recommended for most athletes, especially Cycling, because they tend to retain moisture when you sweat. Not only that, but cotton can easily lose its shape and stretch or compress in your shoes. Wearing cotton in an athletic shoe often leads to a clammy, wet foot with a high potential for blisters and infections. When is comes to your feet, remember that a dark, warm, moist environment is perfect for the growth of fungous. To avoid problems, keep your feet cool and dry.
