Prevent Sock Issues with Children Seamless Socks

Have you ever heard your child complain about how their socks felt? Children often times suffer from sensory issues specifically with how some things feels on their body. This is why kids find clothes, and those pesky tags itchy and scratchy too.

For the more severe instances, the discomfort can feel so painful that the child will cry out. Their feet are no different and companies are now responding with seamless socks for kids. No matter whether your child suffers from a sensory disorder, is diabetic, or just doesn't like the way their socks feel, maybe it is time to have your child try a pair of seamless socks.

Seamless socks work by removing the seam located at the toe, and and this is done by working the sock backwards, or from the toe up. By simply changing the way the sock is made it can end the discomfort, or pain triggered by seamed socks. A seamed sock can also gather at the toe, which can cause blisters. With a child's feet being very unique from adult feet,due to the fact they are constantly growing and more sensitive, no one can assume that their socks fit like adults.

When buying socks for kids, you must insure you are getting the appropriate fit. Socks should never be loose, but should instead hug your child's feet. Look for materials that have some give to them like lycra yarns and never buy them too big or your child may develop blisters. An additional feature to look for, especially if buying crew or knee highs, are non-binding tops. Child seamless socks come in a assortment of styles, like crew, ankle and even knee high. They also come in a range of colors for both girls, boys and neutral colors.There are tons of great options, to keep your child pleased, pain free and trendy at the same time.

Kids seamless socks in many styles and colors are available online at Tootsies Stride Rite.

Some kids ultra-sensitive to socks, shirt seams, tags

How about that? I just found this interesting article, again...on sensory issues.

Early intervention can help with sensory overload

In some homes, a child's sock is simply that: A child's sock.But in homes like Kelly Chirdo's, it is not.The little ball of cloth is an instigator of tears, a symbol of lost time and sometimes the cause of a missed school bus or activity.

Kelly's 10-year-old daughter, Macy, simply cannot bear most socks. Or tags in the back of her shirts. Or seams in her clothes.The socks must be seamless (or turned inside out) and the tags must be cut out, or the clothing won't get worn. Period.

"At first I thought, oh, she is a diva," says Chirdo of Irondequoit, recalling how Macy's early, insistent arrival caused an unplanned home birth. "Then I realized that this wasn't attitude, these things really bother her."

As it turns out, these things — and sometimes many more — bother an awful lot of kids.

"We got talking about this one day and found four people on our staff have the same problem," says Lisa Revell, an Irondequoit office manager whose 12-year-old son, Joe was, as a preschooler, "a horrible nightmare" when it came to sock seams and height, tags, winter boots and most other aspects of dressing.
