Wool socks are socks made of wool. Generally, the content of wool in wool socks ranges from 20%-30%. Wool socks have good elasticity, full-hand feeling, strong moisture absorption and good warmth retention.

Cotton has the high performance of hygroscopicity, moisture retention, heat resistance, alkali resistance, and hygiene. It has no irritation or negative effects in contact with the skin. Also,it is beneficial to the human body when worn for a long time. Usually, socks with cotton content of more than 75% can be called cotton socks.
Combed cotton socks
Combed cotton fibers are long and neat cotton fibers that are left after the shorter fibers removed by a machine called a comber. Due to the removal of short cotton fibers and other fiber impurities, the cotton yarn spun from combed cotton is more delicate, and the finished product also feels smoother and more comfortable. Combed cotton is more tough and not easy to pilling.
Spandex socks
Spandex is commonly known as elastic fiber, which has high elasticity and strong stretchability. Its stretched length can reach 5-7 times of the original fiber. Textile products with spandex can maintain the original contour. Spandex can make the socks have elasticity and shrinkage, making it easier to wear, and also make the socks more fit to the feet.
Wood pulp fiber socks

It has natural antibacterial function, strong water absorption, air permeability and oil discharge and decontamination ability.
The wool socks are with the strongest warmth followed by rabbit fur socks. However, both of these socks are easier to shed, depending on whether you can accept it.
