    • EDIT BY 양말사장 | 2023. 3. 21| VIEW : 10



    The length of socks is not set by international standards, so they vary from brand to brand and vary slightly within a country.We are also singing it separately for convenience.Today, I'd like to briefly introduce the standards used by Sockstars.

    1. Invisible (INVISIBLE
    They are overshoes that you can't see when you wear shoes and are sometimes called Noshow or Ped.

    2. Sneakers (SNEAKERS)
    It is a length that corresponds to the common ankle socks.It is also called Liner, Extra Low Cut, etc. overseas.These socks do not exceed the ankle bone but completely cover the back of the foot.

    3. SHORT
    They are socks that cover the ankle bone slightly and are often referred to as Quarter, Ankle, Athletic, Short Crew, etc.It is loved by people with high activity because it can reduce the price and has rubber threads in the ankle.

    4. Crew (CREW)
    The socks are the longest and the most standard length currently introduced by Sockstars.It is about 18-25cm long from the heel and the range is wide, so it is a little difficult to specify.

    5. Midcarp (MID CALF)
    These socks are known as tuxedo socks and are about 30-35 cm long.Until the 1980s, when American casual was popular, it was also the most popular long-sleeved pair of socks and is still being launched by historic brands.I think it was because there was an etiquette that bare skin should not be seen when crossing legs.It's a path with a classic charm.

    6. KNEE HIGH
    It is long enough to reach below the knee while crossing the cap (convex of the calf.It is also used in combination with Over The Calf.Recently, women's socks usually have a high preference length of 37-42cm.Recently, Nihi socks are worn in a loose way that is about the length of a crew by lowering them down.

    7. OVER KNEE
    It is a length that covers or exceeds the knee and is often used in golf wear, and is also introduced by retro brands in fashion.Many words are used interchangeably, but in the case of Overney, they are almost the same.OTK for Over the Knee?Or) I shorten the order the cap and use it as OTC.
