Short Socks

Why Do Cyclists Wear Short Socks?

There are a number of reasons you might favour short or ankle cycling socks over longer styles:

- Shorter socks help keep legs cooler during summer rides
- Short, thin socks fit snugly to prevent bunching or movement in your cycling shoe
- Seen as the 'old-school' look, some riders choose short socks to lean into fashion traditions

Are Long or Short Socks Better for Cycling?

What works for you may not be best for another rider. When it comes to selecting the best cycling socks for you, the main consideration must be comfort. Opting for a sock with a snug - but not too-tight - fit and proper ventilation is often more important than sock length.

Your riding style is also key. If you're a commuter or road cyclist, then length will likely play a minimal role in your sock buying decision-making. But if you're a mountain biker, you might want to consider long bike socks to provide an extra level of protection from scratches.
