Blis-Sox prevent heel blisters with their tough, comfortable hi-tech gel lining.
Blis-Sox are a simple but amazingly effective way to prevent and protect heel blisters. The secret to Blis-Sox's outstanding comfort is the soft but tough thermoelastic polymer gel which is bonded inside the heel area of the flexible, seamless open-toed sock. The gel absorbs friction and impact shock around the heel, protecting the skin from abrasion injury, as well as reducing heel strike impact on every step.
You can wear Blis-Sox under any regular sock, the thin design is intended to minimise extra bulk, so they are suitable for use in all but the very tightest footwear.
Whether hiking, rambling, running, golfing, yomping, (or even just dog-walking or sightseeing), Blis-Sox give you great protection from heel blisters all day long. Wear them from the start of the day, or keep them to hand in case in case of discomfort. Blis-Sox can be put on to protect an existing blister, even if it has perforated, but bear in mind that they are not a medical dressing and should not be used on broken (i.e. bleeding) or infected skin.
Blis-Sox come in 2 sizes, to fit UK sizes 3-8 (EU 35-41) and 8-14 (EU 41-49). The open toe design means Blis-Sox fit a wide range of adult foot sizes with ease. If you're not sure which to go for, choose the smaller size if you have slimmer feet and ankles or for a snug fit if you are doing more intensive exercise, select the larger size if you have wider feet and ankles or want a slightly larger coverage area.
Blis-Sox can be washed and reused up to 30 times, though they will obviously not last as long if used for high intensity activity as they will for less vigorous pastimes. Even so, we think you'll find that they offer better value than endless boxes of blister plasters!
