Choose comfortable socks

When it comes to choosing socks, we have to start with a line from a TV drama that we often hear. "I am blind, so I like you." It's not because I am blind, but because I was deceived by the appearance at that time. It's the same when choosing socks. Speaking of socks, there have been historical records for thousands of years. In 1589, William Lee, a student at the British seminary, invented a machine for manually sewing socks. This technology was 6 times more efficient than the hand-knitting technology at that time. From that time on, the craftsmanship of socks also began to go beyond the watershed. The varieties and styles began to increase. From the initial foot binding cloth to the current high-density woven business men's socks, the evolution from generation to generation is also due to people's constantly picky requirements and the pursuit of higher quality. When choosing socks, the first thing to look at is the material. Good or bad, basically you can tell everything. Many times, some pure cotton socks and some blended socks are not If you look closely, the difference is not big.

Socks made of pure cotton

will feel softer

especially new socks

you can still feel the soft texture after folding many times

Mercerized cotton socks

will have a smoother surface

have a certain glossiness

the texture feels rough

the elasticity is not ideal after pressing

I don’t recommend buying it

If some manufacturers can use replacement materials

so that the difference is not very obvious

you need to look at the workmanship

look at the sock opening and the seam

if you want

you can click the number of stitches on the socks

basically, these are the indicators needed for a pair of socks

sock opening

this part is the part with the most elastic fibers in the socks

its to fix the sock opening on the foot

so that it does not fall off

by the way, it is also very good to wear autumn trousers in winter

the problem is

the thickness of individual ankles is different

it is easy to leave marks

for the elderly, you should be vigilant about this kind of thing

one Generally, the blood circulation of the lower limbs is not very good. The socks are too tight. It is easy to compress the skin and blood vessels. So when choosing, moderate elasticity, ideal material, and seam head, this detail is easily overlooked. You can only see it by turning the socks inside out. The seam head is located at the toes and soles of the feet. Before the socks are formed, this position is not sewn. In order to increase production, many sock factories use seam head equipment to connect. There will be a bulge in the seam head. The production has increased, but the feeling of wearing the feet will feel obvious. There is another way of sewing, which is the traditional manual alignment. Pure manual alignment and sewing. The production is much lower than that of equipment operation. But this type of socks will not rub the feet. The seam head is flat. The firmness is also much better than the machine sewing head. The number of counts is actually when choosing socks. The intuitive view is the thickness of the yarn. The thicker the yarn, the better the quality. The smaller the coarse count

On the contrary, the smaller the yarn count

The more delicate the foot feel

Generally, socks with more than 40 counts

The industry can be defined as high-density knitting

Needle count

When choosing socks

How to look at the needle count

Simply put, the larger the needle count, the denser the yarn of the socks

When socks are produced

The yarn is woven with special sock needles

The more sock needles there are, the higher the hardware requirements for the sock machine

The cost will also be higher

Usually, the socks we wear are about 168 needles

Socks with more than 200 needles

There are not many in the industry

But a friendly reminder

This type of socks will be addictive

And you will never want to wear other ones in the future

More than half of the time every day

I wear socks

Especially in summer

If the socks are not chosen well

Not only will you feel uncomfortable wearing them

People around you will also feel uncomfortable

The odor spreads in an air-conditioned room

What kind of life experience is it

Anyway, the small ones don't want
