Why Toe Socks?

In comparison between toe socks & regular socks, we understand it comes down to personal preference and the specific situation in which they will be worn.

However, do you know there are quite a few benefits of wearing toe socks that you might not know at all?

Toe socks are designed with individual pockets for each toe; here are a few reasons why someone (someone like MYSELF) loves wearing toe socks!  :)

1. Improved grip & balance:

By separating the toes, toe socks can provide better grip and balance, especially in activities like weight training (if you are like me, always like to train with “shoes OFF”), yoga or a run (this one was validated by my partner. lol)

2. Reduced friction, blisters & foot odour:

The individual pockets in toe socks can help reduce friction between toes, which can reduce the risk of blisters.

3. Improved hygiene:

By keeping each toe separate, toe socks can help absorb more sweat; reducing moisture and the build-up of bacteria, which can lead to foot odour & foot fungus.

4. Comfort:

Some people (Here! I’m one of them) simply find toe socks more comfortable than traditional socks, as they allow each toe to move and flex independently.  It can also give you better mobility and alignment.

5. Style:

Yes!  Your read it correctly!!  STYLE!

The fun & quirky design simply makes you stand out!  

Apart from above benefits being said, toe socks are actually very similar to gloves for our hands; very rarely we would see or wear gloves without individual finger pockets (probably only appears often on babies, those wrapped up gloves which prevent babies to scratch their faces...).  

Anyway, if we know when wearing gloves, we pick the ones with individual finger pocket design to give us better mobility. 

Why same logic can’t be applied on socks?
