Nike Elite Socks: Proof That Even Socks Evolve (But do sock monkeys evolve? hmmm…)

Socks have come a long way since I played serious competitive sports back in the day – we used to just throw on any old pair before lacing up for a game. But the folks over at Nike are in the mindset that if you’re going to shell out $100+ for high-performance sneakers, you should have an equally well engineered pair of socks to accompany them.

The Nike Elite Socks have targeted padding to protect and cushion the areas most prone to impact, and have developed a special Dri-FIT fabric that quickly wicks away sweat to keep your feet comfortable. *After wearing these socks in a few recent pickup games, I’m a believer.

A Brief History of Socks (Before Fancy Elite & “Super Elite” Socks Came Along)

  • Stone Age – Animal skins were gathered and tied around the ankle to protect the foot from the environment…and now we complain when we get a hole in our socks – sheesh. Wimps. 
  • 400 AD – The earliest known surviving socks were found in Egypt, and they were of the tabi style, which has one toe compartment for the big toe, and one compartment for the other toes – so they were able to be worn with sandals (in the sand, obviously).
  • Later – The modern word “sock” derives from the Latin word “soccus“, which was a loose-fitting slipper worn by Romans.
  • 1950s – Sock puppets and Sock Monkeys invented to the delight of children everywhere.
  • Now – The modern sock Capital of the World is Zhuji, China, which produces about 6 billion socks annually (and about 3 billion of them disappear every year when we do our laundry).

Is this history of socks not detailed enough for you? Then try this painfully detailed, and really verbose history of socks. Spoiler: The highlight is the late 17th century use of cotton in socks; Thrilling!
