Tennis players need to protect their feet from impact, and from rubbing and chafing inside tennis shoes. The more protection your feet have while playing tennis, the longer you will be able to play without problems and you do not want to overheat your feet either. This is why you need socks that are designed and made for your particular sport. Thorlo tennis socks take care of all these things and ensure that your feet have the best care.
Thorlo tennis socks come in three different levels but level three is one that is recommended if you are going to be playing tennis for a long time. Level three provides maximum protection from impact and stops your feet becoming sore and spoiling your game. These are quite thickly padded across the soles so it is recommended that you buy your tennis shoes in a half size bigger if you want to wear level three Thorlo tennis socks.
Thorlo tennis socks have undergone more than twenty five years of testing and development to come up with the optimum comfort design for tennis players. Tests have measured impact and the other stresses that are placed on feet while you play tennis.
Standing on a hard surface for a long time puts pressure on the foot and jumping up and down increases this. With a bare foot the pressure would be equal all over the foot but when you play tennis your feet rotate, putting pressure on the sides, footpads, toes and different places as you play your game. Too much pressure on one place can cause discomfort. Thorlo tennis socks are specially designed to balance out this pressure and the uneven effects of impact on the foot and give a more comfortable fit to the tennis shoe. Some people prefer to have their ankles free and do not like to have them restricted by socks when they are playing tennis but this can easily be resolved.
Inside the shoe, the foot slides back and forth, becomes hot and sweats. This heat and moisture will soon cause breaks in the skin and blisters. Thorlo tennis socks act like a wick and take the moisture away from the skin. They also stop the feet from overheating by allowing them to breath and reduce the amount of slipping around inside the shoe. The thicker the padding is, the more protection there will be for the foot while you play your game.
