Compressive support: Each padded skate sock features 2 gel pads to protect the front of the feet, shin area, and heel from rubbing when wearing roller skates, ski boots, ice skates, work boots, splints, or braces. They offer compressive support to help relieve pain from injury or prolonged standing. Breathable design: These protective socks are made of nylon material with strong durability and good abrasion resistance. They absorb moisture, reduce odor, and provide a comfortable fit. The socks have excellent elasticity and resilience, are soft and skin-friendly, and allow for unrestricted movement. Gel pads: The 2 gel pads are non-toxic and provide stability, aging resistance, heat resistance, high elasticity, and consistent compression without deformation. They help protect the front of the feet, shin, and heel from pressure, friction, and discomfort, helping prevent foot pain, heel cracks, and dryness. Two different sizes: Includes 2 pairs of nude-colored foot protector socks in 2 different lengths. These ankle sleeve socks are washable and reusable. Ideal for skating, hockey, hiking, or skiing, they offer comfort and ease of use. Unisex design: The heel sleeve fits most men and women. Simply fold the sleeve up, pull it over your foot, fold it down, and adjust the pads to the desired position. Soft gel pads conform to the foot while the sleeves keep them securely in place for use with ice skates, hockey skates, roller skates, hiking boots, cleats, football cleats, and more.
