Dr. Foot® Silver Protect Toe Socks – antimicrobial toe sneaker socks for protection at work and in everyday life
Knitido Dr. Foot Silver Protect® toe socks protect your feet from bacterial and fungal infections, as well as foot odor. Effective due to a secure cotton thread with a silver core.
The advantage of toe socks over conventional silver socks and chemical agents: the thread is effective throughout the entire wearing time, even in places where conventional socks cannot reach. The silver remains in the cotton thread of the sock and only becomes effective through direct contact with the outer shell of the germs, i.e. only when it lies on the skin.
The advantages at a glance:
- certified antimicrobial effectiveness, e.g. against athlete's foot and nail fungus, and effective against foot odor
- long-lasting effect
- works especially where conventional socks fail: between the toes
- easy and safe to use in everyday life and at work: put them on in the morning and you're good to go
- made of 87% cotton, suitable for boiling, washable up to 60°C
This is how Dr. Foot Silver Protect toe socks work:
The heel, toes, and spaces between the toes are particularly susceptible to germs. That's why we've incorporated a cotton thread with a silver core at the forefoot and heel. Upon contact, the thread dissolves the outer layer of pathogens and kills them.
The interdigital spaces are particularly protected retreats for bacteria and microbes. Favored by the poor ventilation in the footwear, a warm and humid "greenhouse climate" prevails here with ideal reproduction conditions for germs.
Toe socks significantly improve the foot climate by widening the spaces between the toes. This change in the microclimate – less temperature and less moisture – worsens the living conditions of the harmful germs. The silver thread, which lies directly on the skin in the spaces between the toes, can combat the germs locally.
Frequently asked questions
When and by whom are silver toe socks most often used?
- for prevention of infections, e.g. after visiting communal showers, public swimming pools, etc.
- for the prevention and control of foot odor, sweaty feet, cheesy feet
- In work shoes to avoid foot infections and odor
- in contact with patients whose immune system is weakened or who pose a risk of infection.
Are normal toe socks not sufficient?
Normal toe socks without silver fiber are already a step towards improving foot health because they
- widen the spaces between the toes and ensure a balanced foot climate and poorer conditions for germs
- Bind sweat from between the toes in the fabric and thus "dehumidify" them
- promote the holistic use of the foot and make the foot more resilient
Toe socks with silver thread have an additional antimicrobial effect by attacking existing germs.
How do silver toe socks differ from conventional socks with silver thread?
Conventional socks enclose the entire foot, but do not reach between the toes. As a result, the toes are pressed together and ventilation and dehumidification of the spaces between them are impaired. This retreat and refuge for microbes is spared by the antimicrobial substance, which slows down the action process and leaves a breeding ground for repeated infections.
Why is there no silver thread indicated in the material identification?
The European Textile Labeling Regulation does not provide any labeling options for silver threads in the material composition.
How often can I wash my Dr. Foot Silver Protect before they lose their effectiveness?
Tests confirm that even after 200 washes, 99% of the antimicrobial effectiveness is retained.
