It is often assumed that only thick socks offer protection and shock absorption. Thick socks, however, are uncomfortable and cause unnecessary and profuse sweating. They also block ventilation which creates an optimal environment for fungal and bacterial growth. ELEOTIN® PEDO-PROTECTION socks utilize TSAP to provide maximum ventilation, protection, and shock absorption without being too thick. The socks can also reduce the threat of sudden impact through dissipation. The unique TSAP technology is both ergonomical and functional.
