The most interesting clothes at Euro 2024? Socks with tears in the backs, which are supposed to make football players’ knees feel better. No science at all!
Like every football player does. Right on. There were a lot of football players at Euro 2024 who had holes in the backs of their socks. You should know that Jude Bellingham does it. Both he and his England friends Bukayo Saka, Kyle Walker, and Conor Gallagher like it. It’s a pattern.
A hole trend, even? Don’t do that. Anyhow, there’s a good reason for it.
Did they have to go through some thorns to get to the field? Not really. It’s because they think that tight socks make it hard for their muscles to move during a game. Football players’ calves can get bigger as the game goes on, which can cut off their oxygen flow and make them feel.
That makes sense from a science point of view. Who can if it makes the players feel better or even makes them play better, even if the science isn’t 100% sure?
Who really? Of course, officials sometimes. Ezequiel Garay, who used to play for Real Madrid, Benfica, and Valencia, was once told by a judge to change his socks because they were holey, which was against the rules.
You just answered your own question, right? Quiet down. Still, other people will follow what players do, as the many kids in school with silly Jack Grealish haircuts showed a few years ago. Soon, we’ll see kids in the street with holes in their socks.
Couldn’t football socks be made a little roomier to stop all of this cutting? Some of the trouble is this. Because they wear new socks every game, football socks don’t lose their shape over time like ours do.
They might be able to wear their socks more than once. This is a very smart and long-lasting idea. It won’t become popular.
Still, making holes in things can help you get better at sports. I had no idea. Stop! I know where this is going.
I just want to know if it works for other clothes. I know what you’re going to do. You’re going to try to explain why you’re wearing torn-up old pants as a sports choice.
They might make me run faster, though. There’s no need to run faster. You with yourself all day in the newspaper while sitting in a chair.
Say this: “Making holes in your socks will help you play sports better.”
