Why 100% Cotton Socks Are Not Really 100% Cotton: The Truth About Material Composition

Socks are an essential piece of clothing that combines comfort and functionality. "100% cotton socks" are particularly popular. But what does it really mean when the label says "100% cotton"? In this blog post, we want to debunk the myths surrounding cotton socks and explain why it often takes more than just cotton to produce high-quality socks.

The importance of material compositions

1. Why 100% cotton alone is not enough
While 100% cotton socks are soft and breathable, they can also have some disadvantages. Cotton alone does not have the elasticity necessary to keep socks in shape and ensure an optimal fit. For this reason, many manufacturers use elastane and polyamide in combination with cotton.

2. The role of elastane and polyamide
Elastane (also known as spandex) provides the socks with elasticity and flexibility, while polyamide provides durability and improved shape retention. These materials complement the cotton perfectly and ensure that the socks not only look good, but also survive everyday use. At QSocks, we focus on careful material selection to combine the best properties.
