Socks are a daily companion for most people. However, they are particularly important when doing sports. If you go hiking, for example, they protect your feet from blisters or pressure points. This also applies if you go running and cover many kilometers. There are also ski socks, among others, that offer you good support and keep your feet warm in the snow. As you can see: sports socks are important in a wide variety of situations. That's why we at Lenz Products offer you a large selection of sports socks for men and women. Take a look at our range!
No matter what sport you are doing: With the right socks you will feel comfortable and be able to concentrate fully on your sport. But how do you recognize high-quality sports socks? You should make sure that the socks have a reinforced heel and toe area. These reinforcements prevent blisters or pressure points from forming due to excessive friction. This is extremely important, especially when hiking. In addition, your sports socks should be made of suitable materials. These include cotton, elastane and polyamide. Normal socks are not suitable for sport because they cannot absorb sweat and do not offer you any reinforcements. Sports socks for men and women should also be comfortable to wear and fit well. As you can see, there are a few things to consider when you want to buy sports socks.
If you are looking for sports socks for men and women, you will find a large selection of models for different sports. Our Compression Socks 4.0 Low are ideal running socks. They are made using compression knitting technology, which guarantees optimal support. In addition, the socks have ideal temperature regulation and a flat-linked toe seam. They are made of 97% polyamide and 3% elastane. We also offer high-quality hiking socks. Our Trekking 8.1 are quarter socks. They are a little shorter and are therefore perfect for lower hiking boots, which is particularly advantageous in summer. If you are going on a long hike and need strong protection, we recommend our Trekking 8.0 socks. They have padded reinforcements in heavily used areas: a real advantage on long hikes.
Sports socks should be made of materials that can absorb moisture. This includes merino wool, which absorbs a lot of moisture without getting wet. Polyamide also has the advantage of being able to absorb moisture and is particularly durable. Cotton, nylon and acrylic are also suitable materials for your sports socks.
You should wash your sports socks after every use. During the day, bacteria, fungi and germs can form in your socks. Therefore, they must be cleaned in the washing machine after every use. A temperature between 30 and 40 °C is usually sufficient.
No, it is not a good idea to wear regular socks when you do sports. Sports socks are designed for sports activities and are made of a suitable mix of materials. They also offer you reinforcements. Regular socks do not meet all of these criteria: they are ideal for everyday wear, but not a good choice when you do sports.
We offer sports socks in a wide range of designs. You can get them as sneaker socks or ankle socks, for example. They are then particularly short and not visible under your shoe. We also offer sports socks with medium and high shaft heights. Take a look at our range and find the right sports socks for you.
