What are sock football boots?

As we mentioned, a sock boot can be defined in two ways. One, as a football boot which has a sock-style collar. And two, a football boot which is manufactured (in full or part) by modern sock-like materials like FlyKnit or Primeknit.

The ankle collar can help the player to feel more supported and fixed into the boot, giving those with so-called ‘biscuit ankles’ some peace of mind.

The sock-like materials used in uppers still offer durability and support, but can also offer the wearer a more natural feel on the ball, helping touch and control. Of course, some people just think they look classy. Which they do.
