Cotton is a great fabric for absorbing and managing moisture. This is why it has long been used by people that live in hot climates for light airy and moisture clearing fabrics. We also use it for bed sheets and bed spreads for comfort and softness.
Using white cotton socks for sport, training, and day to day use is nothing new. However, I ran into this cute and cool article that piqued my interest. The article is about saving kits (AKA baby bunnies).
In the article they use white cotton socks as a natural and comfortable source of moisture and warmth for baby kits as a replacement for their non present mothers. The kits snuggle up to these rice filled, warmed- socks to stay warm and stay alive.
