The foot is among the heaviest producers of sweat in the
body, the average foot has 250,000 sweat glands. The
foot can produce over 0.25 US pints (0.12 l) of perspiration per day.
Socks help to absorb this sweat and draw it to areas where air can evaporate
the perspiration. Socks will avoiding a
variety of foot problems including blisters, athlete's foot and a whole host of
others.
In cold environments, socks decrease the risk of frostbite. Footwraps, pieces of cloth that are worn
wrapped around the feet, were worn with boots before socks became widely
available. In the 8th century BC, the Ancient
Greeks wore socks from matted animal hair for warmth.
Socks can be created from a wide variety of materials. Some
of these materials are cotton, wool, nylon, acrylic, polyester, olefins, (such
as polypropylene), or spandex. Most
sports will require some sort of sock, usually a tube sock to protect one's
legs from being scraped while participating in sport activities.
Swiss researchers found
that when we are on the cusp of falling asleep, our body redirects blood flow
to our hands and feet. When these extremities are warm, their blood vessels can
dilate and allow for greater blood flow, which of course aids in the
redistribution of blood and helps you get to sleep. So if you're having trouble
nodding off, the solution could be as simple as throwing on a warm pair of
socks.
