Underwear

Choose Underwear and Socks Based on Your Workday

When you're on your feet for much of the day, the right socks can make a big difference. The best choice depends on factors such as the footwear you use, the temperature of your work environment, and how you prefer your socks to fit.

Work Socks and Wool Socks

Work socks are available in a variety of materials and thicknesses. Some models feature reinforced heels and toes, while others are thinner and better suited to footwear with limited extra space.

Wool socks can be a good option when additional warmth is needed, for example when working outdoors or in cold environments. Keep in mind that sock thickness also affects how the sock fits inside your shoes.

Ankle Socks and Lightweight Socks

For warmer workplaces or lower-cut shoes, ankle socks can be a suitable choice. They are available in different materials and designs, ranging from simple cotton socks to models with specialised performance features.

When comparing products, consider the material, size, and any reinforced areas.

Support Socks and Compression Socks

Support socks and compression socks are designed to provide a certain level of pressure around the leg. The distribution of pressure and the degree of compression vary between products.

Check the size, any compression rating, and the intended use before making your choice. If you have medical concerns or require medical-grade compression, selection should be made in consultation with a healthcare professional.

Size, Materials, and Care

Socks and underwear are available in a range of materials and sizes. If they will be worn regularly at work, it may be worth checking both the care instructions and how the products are packaged, for example as single pairs or multipacks.

Always use the information provided for each product when comparing alternatives.
