Soccer Socks Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of socks to wear for soccer?

Go for soccer socks made with technical materials like polyester or nylon that wick away sweat and keep your feet dry and comfortable. Cotton socks tend to retain moisture, which can lead to blisters. Consider the level of padding you need — thicker socks offer more shock absorption for high-impact positions like goalkeeper, while thinner socks provide better ball feel for attackers. Over-the-calf socks are the most common length for soccer socks, offering shin protection and support. They're good for all positions. Crew socks, which are shorter, can be worn with shin guards that have sleeves.

Why are soccer socks so tight?

Soccer socks aim for a snug fit for several reasons. Tightness helps support calves and ankles, reducing fatigue and risk of injury. Snugness minimises movement within the boot, preventing blisters. A close fit improves ball feel and control for precise playing. Some players like to cut holes in tight socks to improve circulation and comfort, especially if experiencing calf tightness. Ultimately, the desired level of tightness depends on personal preference and performance needs.

Why do soccer players wear two socks?

While it may look like two socks, soccer players often layer a thin inner sock under their shin guards, with standard shin-highs on top to hold the guards in place. This can provide several benefits: Two socks absorb more sweat, reduce friction and add cushioning, and may boost comfort during intense play. Inner socks can fill gaps in slightly loose boots, improving stability and preventing blisters. Extra padding can also shield against bumps and stomps. Overall, it's up to player preference and how they choose to strategically layer their soccer socks for optimal performance and protection.
