Sleeves and socks work to deliver comfort and support to your foot, whatever condition, activity or shoe type you may have. Some sleeves work to protect against the uncomfortable rubbing a bunion can cause, while others help relieve dry and cracked heel skin without using abrasion. Socks are used for whole foot help, for example as a shock absorber for those with atrophy of the fat pad in their feet.
Sleeves and socks work to help with specific foot problems in direct ways. A sleeve can help provide bunion pain relief by creating a barrier between the protrusion and the inside of your shoe, preventing rubbing and irritation when you walk. Sleeves can also work to relieve cracked and dry heels through moisturisation and cushioning, making it much safer and much more comfortable that using abrasion to get rid of them
Socks work on conditions which can affect the whole of the foot. For example, some socks feature a gel layer which work to help with arthritis and diabetes to reduce pain and the risk of harm to nerve-damaged feet. These socks can also work as soft tissue supplements for people who are suffering from fat pad atrophy, as they take up the work of the lost fat pad in distributing and relieving pressure.
At Shoe Insoles we have a wide range of sleeves and socks for a variety of conditions to choose from. If you have any questions about any of our products, don't hesitate to contact our support team through the website or over the phone at 020 7501 1102.
