PREVENTION OF BLISTERS + IRRITATION
AND HOW SEAMLESS SOCKS CAN HELP
WHY YOU NEED SEAMLESS SOCKS
Blisters + Irritation
If there’s one thing that can really slow a runner or athlete down, it’s foot blisters. Blisters can form from your skin rubbing against irritating pressure points in the shoes, especially if the shoes are new. You can also be more prone to blisters if your socks are wet from sweat. The pain and discomfort of blisters, even if properly bandaged, can prevent you from being at your very best.
HOW WE CAN HELP
Provide Comfort + Prevent Blisters
SmartKnitACTIVE® Socks are completely seamless, eliminating common points of rubbing and irritation. The stretchy fibers create a form-fitting design, which reduces wrinkling and bunching, therefore reducing additional points of irritation. Finally, these socks are made of high-tech COOLMAX® or Ionic+™ fibers that wick moisture away from the sock, creating a drier and more hygienic sock.
COOLMAX® is a registered trademark of The LYCRA Company.
Ionic+™ is a trademark of NOBLE Biomaterials, Inc.
