Abrasion resistance:Reinforced heel and toes for longer-lasting socks.Reduced chafing:Soft brushed cotton with reinforced plush loops in areas prone to rubbing.Stability:Stretchy knit, elasticated midfoot band. COMFORT AND COTTON: Combed cotton is a type of cotton whose fibres have been brushed in order to lengthen them and make the fabric even softer, ensuring greater quality. Tennis socks made from this type of fabric are stretchier and more comfortable to wear. The friction zones are a little thicker to prevent overheating from friction with the shoe. Support: A material called elastane is used to make the sock stretchy, offering superior support of the foot. Please note: your tennis socks may appear smaller but this is in fact just due to their increased elasticity. Better withstands repeated washing.An elasticated section at the mid-foot helps ensure the socks stay in place. Durability: The RS 160 Mid socks have been recently redesigned to make them longer lasting. We've strengthened the toe, heel and ball of the foot by twisting the main cotton thread with a more durable polyamide thread.
