A little light reading: Slipper Socks

Slipper socks have many advantages over traditional socks and over traditional slippers. Let us review some of the benefits of slipper socks so you can determine if slipper socks are a good choice for you.


  • Children - Slipper socks have many advantages over traditional slippers and socks for children. Preventing our children from "sliding" along hardwood floors is easily stopped with the slipper socks that are available on the market today.  While older models of slipper socks had actual traditional slipper feet, the ones sold today do not have this type of bottom.  In fact, many of the slipper sock models sold today have little "nubs" on the bottom (which can feel something like walking on rabbit poo) which will prevent children from sliding along the floor.
  • Adults - Many of us suffer from cold feet. In fact, whether it is winter or summer, we often find that even when the rest of us feels perfectly comfortable, our feet are cold enough to be downright uncomfortable. In the winter time, your options are wearing shoes, wearing traditional slippers (increasing the risk of falling) or wearing slipper socks.  Many slipper socks are thin enough that they can be worn as socks in boots and shoes as well.


Other Advantages
Slipper socks have many other advantages over traditional socks and slippers.  Some of the advantages may surprise you!


  • Loose - Slipper socks are non-binding and might be more beneficial to those who have circulation problems.  The non-binding tops and wide feet can be extremely helpful for diabetics, seniors and those with poor circulation.
  • Washable - Another advantage of slipper socks is they are easy to wash and dry. They can go in the laundry with your regular wash and be cleaned just like socks. This gives a slipper sock a definite advantage over traditional slippers which can be non-washable or may deteriorate after too much laundering.
