How To Wear Football Socks

Football socks are a necessity if you are on a team. Most times you will need these in the team's colors, although for practices you will likely be allowed to wear whatever color you would like to. Some teams are more strict on regulations than others are, so be sure to talk to your coach (or the coaching assistant) if there is any question on the uniform code. Many teams have a company that they use to order uniforms, including all accessories. Some teams though, will let you order spare apparel and backup equipment from the company of your choice as long as it meets the uniformity requirements. This route is usually a lot more economic than direct ordering from the team's choice company, so it is certainly something to ask about if budget is a concern.

You can find football socks to fit all sizes of feet. They come in youth sock sizes 4 to 9 for both boys and girls. Those sizes correspond to shoe sizes 5 toddler through 5 youth. They are available for men in sock sizes 9 to 18. These correspond to shoe sizes 4.5 through 16. The women's sock sizes range from nine to 13. This corresponds to women's shoes sizes 6 through 12. You will find that there are rainbows of colors available. There solids colors, striped colors and even patterns. No matter what your uniform looks like, you should be able to find numerous colors and patterns that will match! If you have checked with your coach and it is okay to deviate a little on practice days, it is fun to mix it up and wear a pair with a pattern or image on them.

Football socks are made from nylon, acrylic and elastic. These materials lend the sock structure, staying ability and breathability. Structure is good for helping hold any necessary pads or straps that may be part of the uniform. You must have a sock that is going to stay in place. Can you imagine watching a game and seeing the player continually pulling at his sock? No, imagine trying to play like that! Impossible! Or, at the least, extremely annoying. Even though nylon and acrylic are both synthetic, they still allow feet a bit of breathing room thanks to new technology that helps wick moisture away from feet. Dry feet means less odor, less chance of injury and less chance of athlete's foot! Pick up some football socks with this ability. That is something you will not regret!

The cost of football socks will vary by company. Most will fall in the three dollar to twelve dollar range. Some may be higher priced, but they may also offer increased performance. It is probably not a good idea to but the least expensive pair just due to price. They may not last as long, stay up as well or keep your feet as dry as a pair that is only a couple of dollars more.
