Material

Material Cotton 65%, Elastane 35%

Cotton (65%) is a breathable fabric that keeps feet cool and dry. It also absorbs sweat, which prevents odours. It's also soft on skin, and provides great ventilation. This makes it an excellent choice for socks. Elastane (35%) is included to improve the elasticity and stretch of the cotton fibres, which ensures that you will have the stretch you need around your foot, ankle and leg.

Why did we make it?

The Below the Knee Extra Stretch style was created specifically for patients who need protection along the lower leg. In clinical practice, we regularly treat people with thin, fragile, sensitive skin over the front of their shins, where even light friction can cause tears, bruising or delayed healing.

Traditionally, many patients rely on tube gauze to cover dressings, bandages or vulnerable skin, but it often slips, bunches or requires constant adjustment. This sock was designed as a more practical alternative, offering gentle, even coverage from foot to below the knee without compression or constriction. The generous stretch allows the sock to sit comfortably over dressings or wounds, while the soft fabric helps reduce friction against compromised skin.

From a podiatrist’s perspective, this style simplifies lower-limb care by combining protection, coverage and comfort into one easy-to-wear solution — supporting skin integrity while still allowing freedom of movement throughout the day.
