Socks for Men

Types of men's socks

Socks are an essential garment in any outfit, whether for sports or everyday wear. Their importance lies in comfort: a poor choice of size, thickness or composition can lead to chafing, unwanted creases, excessive sweating and a long list of other problems. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to all the details. At Decimas we have models for all seasons of the year and with very different compositions. The most common fabrics are polyester, polyamide, elastane and cotton, in different proportions. In everyday outfits, men's winter socks are characterized by greater thickness and, above all, greater height. They usually reach or exceed the ankle, so that no part of the leg is left uncovered, even when seated. In summer, on the other hand, thin models and those with a low design are more suitable, always remaining below the ankle. They are perfect to combine with Bermuda shorts and sneakers: they show discreetly over them without stealing the limelight from the shoes. On the other hand, a long sock with bermudas creates an outdated and clumsy image, whether they are worn stretched or folded to reduce their height. Special mention should be made of pink socks, which also have a place in our catalog. They are those that have an ultra-low design, to the point of going unnoticed from the outside and give the sensation of wearing the shoe without socks.

Socks according to the sport

Sports socks have a more technical design, as they are designed to be worn while exercising. Depending on the sport to be practiced, the garment will have certain characteristics. Very popular are running socks, which are tight-fitting and breathable, preferably low-cut. There is also the very high sock type, covering the calf: these are compressive models that aim to improve running performance and prevent injuries. Men's hiking socks are also special. These models are thicker and higher than usual. The aim is to provide greater comfort and warmth to the foot, as many of these excursions are carried out in the mountains, in cold environments. They also prevent unwanted rubbing with the upper part of the boot. Soccer has its own sports socks. In this case it is more appropriate to speak of socks, as they are very high garments that are worn up to the knee or even covering this joint. Their design is marked by the need in this sport to wear shin or shin guards, which protect the lower leg against blows. With a sock of this type, the shin guard is covered and securely fastened.

Designs of this garment

As for the designs available in this section of Men's Socks, there is usually a predominance of single-color models in neutral tones. That is to say, white, black and gray. They are the most discreet and, at the same time, are the ones that combine best with all types of clothing, including sportswear. However, in many cases intense or fluorine colors are added, especially yellow, although reds, greens and blues are also common. These strong tones are in tune with the technical garments specific to each sport. As you can see, the variety of proposals is always very large in this section.
