Elastic nylon socks are woven from nylon fibers, with wear resistance 10 times higher than cotton fiber fabrics and much higher strength than cotton and wool fibers. They also have advantages such as good elasticity, light weight, no fear of moisture, and no infestation, making them popular among people. To extend the lifespan of elastic nylon socks, the following precautions should be taken when wearing them:
1. Elastic nylon socks have great elasticity, so when purchasing, pay attention to the size. Generally, it is advisable to stretch them slightly larger than the foot and shrink them slightly smaller than the foot.
2. When wearing elastic nylon socks, a layer of insole should be placed inside the shoes to prevent the nails or knots on the soles from wearing out the socks.
3. When wearing elastic nylon socks, it is important to cut the toenails frequently to prevent the rubber seam of the socks from being torn and detached by the long toenails.
4. Elastic nylon socks should be washed frequently because there is a considerable amount of static charge on the surface of the socks. When people walk, there is a lot of flying dust floating in the air around their feet, which also carries charges. Different charges generate attraction, causing the surface of elastic nylon socks to adsorb dust and easily become dirty. But do not use hot water when washing to prevent socks from hardening and becoming brittle; Do not use soap that contains too much alkali. Just gently rub it with your hands, rinse it off, and let it dry in the shade. Do not expose the socks to direct sunlight to prevent them from losing their original shine.
5. Elastic nylon socks should not be placed together with sanitary balls to prevent the rubber mouth of the socks from being melted and cracked.
