Why do people with diabetes need special socks?
People with diabetes are at risk for several foot complications, including loss of feeling, impaired circulation and delayed wound healing. The first line of protection for your feet is a sock that is specifically designed for the unique needs of people with diabetes. All Insight socks have these key features:
- Seamless, constriction-free design prevents the friction and irritation that can cause a blister or sore
- Silver ion-material controls bacteria growth and minimizes odors
- Moisture management system that wicks away excess moisture because moisture can act as a breeding ground for infection-causing bacteria
- White bottoms on ALL colors of socks give people with diabetes another way to see if they are having an issue on the bottom of their feet. Any sort of discharge will stain the sock and catch the person’s attention.
All of these features are important for people with diabetes committed to focusing on their feet. You can’t buy a pair of socks from Insight without them.
