COPPER SOCKS

Definition:  Copper socks have copper technology woven into the fibers of the sock at the sole.  The copper ions provide antimicrobial protection – protection against virus, fungus, bacteria and odor.  Skin appearance has also been shown to improve with wearing the socks.  They are especially helpful for those with at risk feet, such as diabetics. 

Silver has been used in socks also for antimicrobial protection.  The difference is that the silver washes out of the sock after a certain number of washings.  Copper lasts the life of the sock.

The socks come as non-binding (best for diabetics), compression, normal binding and sport socks. 

Benefits:  Diabetics and those with skin conditions, such as toe fungus, athlete’s foot or ingrown toenails are excellent candidates for copper socks.  They provide protection and, in some instances, are curative.
