While some might claim that barefoot is the only way to go, wearing these products actually has a myriad of benefits. One of the most obvious benefits is the added bit of traction at the bottom of the sole. This is great if you don’t have a mat and you are in a place that has slippery floors without any grip. Another feature is that it will keep your feet warm if you are engaging in a cooler climate and you always have cold feet. When the temperatures start to plunge, the last thing that you want to do- indoors or outdoors- is to take off all of the gear that is keeping you warm. These products will ensure your feet stay nice and warm, even on cold floors. The last benefit is one that you may have never considered, but it has to do with bacteria. Gym floors are a notorious breeding ground for all types of bacteria and fungus because they are used by a lot of sweaty people. If you are worried about that bacteria and fungus transferring to your feet, you might want to invest in these special socks.
