Cotton Socks?

Why is it unadvisable to run in cotton socks?


I haven't ever heard of this. I have always been told that cotton allows your skin to breathe. So I found a site and here is what they have to say on cotton socks. When running, do not wear 100-percent cotton socks. Cotton socks absorb moisture which can cause your feet to develop blisters.

I heard that synethetic material socks are better - or are cotton socks good enough?
What about 2 cotton socks (on each foot) to offset any blistering?


Cotton is not preffered. Cotton gets wet from sweat and rubs giving blisters. You are better off with hiking socks that are designed to wick away moisture.

However if you are on doing recreational hiking here and there regular socks are ok.

Can I dye white cotton socks to look black?

The black socks sold in stores aren't good for my feet, since they're usually made of polyester which ends up making my feet sweaty. Can I dye my white cotton socks with something to make them look black? Does anyone have experience doing this?


At Walmart they sell black gym socks which are cotton and not expensive at all. They may have black gym socks at a sporting good store too but a little more pricey. I wear black gym socks for work and they look like dress socks. Dying is such a hassle but it can be done. Use Rit dye. They may run when you sweat though.

If you dye I'll never speak to you again! heh-heh

Have a great day!!!

Why shouldn't you wear cotton socks while running?

I run cross country. I went to a running store and they said that non-cotton socks should be worn while running. They didn't go into the reason why. Will I run better if I wear non-cotton socks/no socks?


If in really warm weather, you can sweat a bunch and cotton socks can possibly cause blisters (mainly if socks are lose). I've usually 95% train in cotton socks and will run races in the dri-fit light ones. Not wearing socks may cause blisters, but you may can get away with it. Go with some low cut dri-fit socks is what I'd recommend. Good Luck

    It’s not a secret that most people prefer to buy cotton socks. It’s self-evident: cotton is cheap and functional. Moreover, we may use it everyday. Many people can’t imagine their lives without those socks. But still there are some people who know that the cotton socks are not the only one, there are other materials that may have even better options. So, to the best of our knowledge, the second place according to popularity and functionality take wool socks. Actually they have a lot of advantages so let’s make a closer investigation of this issue. Among the others advantages, wool socks prevent foot smell and it is quite important.

As the temperature is regulated, so microorganisms do not overgrow and so your feet don’t have any unpleasant odor.
