Silver Functional Socks: The Solution for Sweaty and Smelly Feet
Sound familiar? After a long day, during sports, or when wearing enclosed shoes, you get unpleasant sweaty feet. Sweating is a natural bodily function, but the associated odour can be very embarrassing. But what exactly causes foot odour and how can you effectively combat it?
What Causes Foot Odour?
The sweat glands on the soles of our feet produce odourless sweat. The typical unpleasant smell only occurs when this sweat comes into contact with bacteria on the skin. These bacteria feed on skin cells and, in the process, break down substances that are responsible for the characteristic "cheesy" or "vinegary" smell. This is how harmless sweaty feet become a bothersome source of odour.
What Really Helps Against Sweaty and Smelly Feet?
To effectively combat odour formation, there are several starting points. Here are five proven methods:
- Hygiene: Careful daily washing and regular removal of calluses and dead skin cells deprive the bacteria of their food source.
- Antiperspirant: Special foot antiperspirants reduce sweat production, which slows down the multiplication of bacteria.
- Dryness: Foot powder or sticks bind sweat to the skin's surface and keep the feet dry, as bacteria love warm, moist environments.
- Footwear: Wear breathable shoes and air them out after each use. Changing your shoes daily is ideal.
- Socks: Choose breathable materials and functional socks that quickly wick moisture away from the skin.
Silver Functional Socks: The Technology Behind Them
Our functional socks use an innovative technology that has already proven itself in the sports sector. Special fibres are spun with silver threads. As soon as these come into contact with sweat, silver ions are released. These ions have a **powerful antibacterial effect**, as they interrupt the vital functions of the bacteria. This effectively prevents the formation of foot odour and the growth of fungi.
The result: your feet stay fresh and dry all day long.
