Five Reasons Why You NEED Our Diabetic Sock
Even though you haven’t missed a step since your diabetes diagnosis, exercising daily can become more challenging, with a more noticeable difference in the way your limbs absorb and disperse shock. Your feet take the brunt of the pressure, whether it is running, cycling, or even lifting — which requires strong and solid footing.
Reducing pressure on the extremities as well as enabling better blood flow, will greatly improve your fitness routine. Simply willing your legs to feel energized and tingle-free won’t exactly do the trick.
You need foot protection that comforts and enhances blood flow.
Here are five reasons why Thorlos socks will change the way you think about high quality socks for good.
- They protect your feet
Thorlos’ unique and virtually custom designs give your hardworking feet the ease and comfort you need to sustain lengthy work outs or a long day running errands. As opposed to your standard sock that conforms loosely around the toes and heel, Thorlos socks are made of comfortable material and clinically tested padding, that wraps around the entirety of the foot and ankle, providing you with protection that is unmatched by any other athletic or therapeutic sock.
2. Recessed toe seams that won’t dig into your skin
Standard socks often leave painful grooves and impressions in your skin from elastic bands that are far too tight for comfort. Our Advanced Diabetic sock gives the right amount of firmness in the areas that matter, without pressing against sensitive pressure points or irritating your skin. The recessed toe seam assures your toes are never rubbed raw.
3. Acrylic yarns wick moisture and helps prevent foot odor
Cotton socks absorb and trap sweat, which can lead to skin rashes, funguses and foot odor. For individuals with diabetes, the health of the extremities is very important and could otherwise cause serious complications. Thorlos’ cutting-edge design is 100% breathable, wicks moisture, dries quickly and keeps the foot drier than your typical white cotton sock.
4. Padded variations gives you different degrees of comfort
Sometimes all that is needed is a little extra foot protection. Thorlos socks come in a variety of colors and styles and padding or cushion levels. For maximum protection of diabetic feet we recommend the thicker padding/cushioning in our Advanced Diabetic Socks.
5. A Superior Fit
No other sock takes into account the individual curves and contours of your feet like Thorlos. Our diabetic socks come in a Women’s and a Men’s style reflecting the anatomical differences between a man’ and a woman’s feet. Thorlos diabetic socks allows you to wear your standard shoe size for a bulk-free fit.
