Extra Depth Shoes
Socks
We generally recommend against cotton socks because they tend to hold more moisture. This can cause blisters due to friction of material against the foot and can create bacteria. Non-cotton socks have better moisture-wicking properties. They wick sweat away from the skin, thereby reducing the risk of blisters and fungal infections of the feet.
