Football socks

Why wear football socks while playing football?

Socks are an important part of a football outfit. Besides the fact that you're not allowed to play football without socks, they also have other functions. Football socks help keep your shin guards in place. In addition, all socks feature reinforced sections, which provide extra support. These reinforced sections are located around the ankle and toes. Most football socks are also ergonomically shaped. This means the socks are optimised per foot. Each sock therefore indicates which foot it's suitable for.

Football socks for young and old at Plutosport!

Whether you're looking for football socks for children or for yourself as a senior, our extensive range includes football socks from various A-brands such as Adidas, Nike and Jako. Each brand uses different materials; for example, Puma has many cotton football socks in its collection. This material wears comfortably and helps the sock stay firmly in place. Adidas, Nike and Jako combine different materials. Polyamide, elastane and cotton are combined to create optimal socks. Because the different materials are combined, these socks are breathable, comfortable to wear and wick away sweat. Unlike cotton socks, these socks are slightly smoother. Did you know you should always wash new socks before wearing them for the first time? This reduces the smoothness of the socks and activates their moisture-wicking functions.
