Even though it’s tempting in warmer weather, or when you want to go bare-legged, going sockless can prove rather uncomfortable, as well as risking rubbing, blisters and icky fungal issues — it isn’t great for your shoe linings either. Protect yourself and your footwear in these SOCKSHOP Wildfeet Plain Cushioned Bamboo Shoe Liners.
This twin pack of socklets are made with super-soft, skin-kind bamboo and are knitted with terry loop padded footbeds that increase protection and comfort, plus enhance the already-excellent moisture absorbing qualities of the bamboo fibre. These low cut shoe liners have silicone anti-slip grips placed inside the heel area, so they won’t slide underfoot, staying in place all day. Bamboo is odour-defying and can stay comfortably dry and cool at all times, cleverly managing moisture (more than three times better than cotton knits can) and thermoregulating heat.
Beyond socks, bamboo is a plant that is eco-friendly and sustainable, fast growing and naturally antibacterial. It needs very little water or crop space to grow and gives off 35% more oxygen than a comparably-sized field of trees.
