athletic sock definition and meaning

What is an "athletic sock"?

An athletic sock, also known as sports sock, is typically made of synthetic materials and designed to provide comfort and support for the feet during athletic activities such as running, cycling, or playing sports. They are usually ankle or crew-length and feature cushioning in the sole to absorb impact and reduce the risk of blisters. Athletic socks often have moisture-wicking properties to keep feet dry and comfortable, and may also have breathable mesh panels or arch compression for additional support. They come in a variety of colors and styles and are a popular choice among athletes and fitness enthusiasts.
