5 Reasons Why Bamboo Socks Should Be At The Top Of Your Back To School List

13th Jun 2024

School season has returned, and so has the back-to-school rush of determining what items the kids have grown out of and what worn-out essentials need replacing.

Socks are among the most common items for which mums and dads are rummaging the internet and local shops.

Luckily we've just released our new range of Bearfoot 'Up & Down' Bamboo school socks to make it easy to tick comfortable, breathable and long-lasting socks off your shopping list.

Uncomplicated back-to-school socks the whole family will love

On top of feeling ultra soft, silky and luxurious on the feet, the Bamboo socks keep the feet fresh and comfortable with their ergonomic design. Our new range of Bearfoot Up and Down Bamboo Socks for kids will adapt easily to your school routine and become a family favourite with the outstanding benefits bamboo fibres has to offer.

Bamboo is a more sustainable alternative to other materials

Bamboo is a natural material coming from the bamboo plant. It's often seen as a more sustainable alternative to cotton because the bamboo plant grows and regenerates very quickly, compared to cotton harvesting, which is more time-consuming and labour intense. Less water and very few chemicals are required to grow Bamboo. Bamboo fabric is thermo-regulating, meaning that bamboo socks will keep your feet cool in summer and warm in winter.

What makes bamboo socks so unique?

Bamboo socks absorb four times more moisture than cotton socks, keeping feet fresher and less sweaty. The fibres are also hypo-allergenic, making them an excellent choice for kids with sensitive skin because they irritate the skin less than other socks. On top of that, Bamboo is very breathable and has unique anti-bacterial fibre properties that help reduce natural foot odour.

Here are our top 5 reasons why you will adore our new Kid's Bamboo socks range.

1. Low cut to fit perfectly under school shoes

No one likes socks that awkwardly peak out beneath shoes. The kid’s bamboo range is specifically designed to alleviate this and fit snug beneath school shoes. What’s even better is that they also feature:

  • Blister protection cushioning
  • No more aching feet
  • Viscose from Bamboo, Polyester, Elastane
  • Ergonomic design
  • Sits under the ankle
  • Doesn't chafe
  • The low-cut length is designed to sit on the ankle line.
  • Provides maximum quality, comfort and protection.

2. Comfortable for running around in all-day

Comfort is the top priority for kids. And these socks pack a punch. With a terry cushion foot and arch support, they're a dream to run around in and adapt quickly to growing feet. The reinforced heel, toe and sole mean extra stability, making them the perfect socks for outdoor and sports activities.

If that wasn't enough - the contoured heel pocket reduces the chances of blisters and chafing at the back of the heel. And we all know how important this is.

3. Treated with odour-reducing technology

We all know active feet can have a funny smell thanks to all the schoolyard activities. Luckily the Bearfoot socks range has been treated with 

Silverplus technology that helps reduce the odour of any potential fungal infections that can sometimes come hand-in-hand with sweaty feet. The Silverplus coating and the natural antimicrobial effects of bamboo fibres let kids be kids without you suffering the consequences when they toss their worn socks into the laundry basket.

4. The socks will last for a *very* long time

The top-quality material and excellent Bearfoot brand mean you're in good hands. Bearfoot socks have long supported kids from preschool through high school, so they know what makes a comfortable pair of socks that kids will love.

5. Bamboo socks are easy to care for

Throw them in the washing machine on a warm, gentle wash and hang them up to dry. Because bamboo fibres contain natural anti-bacterial properties, you don't need to wash them as often as other socks.

Even though we love them for school, there's no reason why you shouldn't adopt them for any other sports, outdoor or recreational activity.

They're the perfect everyday socks to wear to school and on the weekends.
