Taking the soccer world by storm, grip socks are revolutionising the interior of players’ boots. They improve traction, stability and reduce the risk of injuries, resulting in better performance for players.
The grippy socks are knitted with special grip yarn, which is woven into the toe and heel of the sock. This helps players feel more confident on the pitch, making it easier to move around and make changes of direction. The socks also absorb impact and vibration from running and training, protecting feet from injury.
In addition, the grippy socks help prevent blisters by reducing friction between the feet and the inside of the shoes. They are also comfortable and soft to the touch. They are suitable for all players, whether goalkeepers or not, as they can protect the feet during intense game play and long training sessions.
Aside from preventing blisters, the grip socks can also prevent slipping in the shoes, which is particularly important when playing on slippery surfaces or in rainy conditions. From a physio perspective, one of the most common reasons for knee ligament injuries is incorrect foot position, so if grip socks can reduce slipping, it can have a positive knock-on effect on hip and ankle positioning and therefore reduce injury risk. soccer grip socks
