Socks Technology

[BeBMan]

I have to admit I'm rather impressed by modern socks technology. Here's the thing:

I sometimes have the prob that news shoes start to rub on the heel on a longer walk. It usually goes away after you use them for 1-2 weeks, but until then it can be teh pain.

There's varous thing you can do to deal with this, but just recently I bought specific "runner" socks designed for long running/walking for the 1st time. I didn't expect much (hey it's just socks, what difference can there be) but they are really way more comfortable than ordinary socks, and stopped the rubbing effectively.

I bet this new type of sock was developed for the NASA. Like Teflon pans. Obviously when you go to the moon you don't want to use old style pans. I suspect it's the same with socks. Probably used these first for a long space walk.
