Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a comfortable and non-slip health care sock that has good sweat absorption, anti-slip, and skin-healing properties. The socks can improve skin quality and help alleviate cracks on the feet.

Problems solved by technology

Although silk is an incredibly strong natural fiber, silk socks are thin—often uses as sock liners—and they lose considerable strength when wet.
Because cotton retains rather than repels moisture, when cotton socks absorb sweat during exercise they swell, bunch, wrinkle, become less-breathable, and cause irregular friction that leads to blisters and foot bacteria.
However, socks made from hydrophobic fibers, and which are constructed in a cross-sectional geometry, wick moisture away from the foot and encourage evaporation.

Embodiment Construction

[0037]Referring to FIG. 1, the health care sock 100 of the present invention is applied to a human foot 102. The sock 100 according to this preferred embodiment is illustrated as having an outer layer 104 generally conforming to the shape of the human foot 102. The sock 100 comprises a toe portion 106, a heel portion 108 and a base 110. The sock 100 of the present invention has an interior cavity suitable for receiving the human foot 102 therein. Leg 112 will extend upwardly and outwardly of the sock 100. The sock 100 will be attached to the human foot in the manner of a conventional sock. The top of the body of the sock 100 is provided with an elastic rubber band 114 in order to facilitate the opening portion 116 when worn and the top of the socks after wearing tightening, so easy to slip the socks and enhances the wearing comfort. In an embodiment, the elastic rubber band 114 is contained in the circumference outlining the opening portion 116 in order to facilitate the opening por...
