High Function 3D SOX
| Along with the evolution of humankind, the shape of feet has also achieved evolution based on their functional role. Human feet are asymmetrical. The toes that stabilize bipedal walking have thickness and length, and the bulging of the ball of the big toe and the ball of the little toe play the role of supporting the body's weight. The arch of the foot has an arch that smoothes walking by absorbing impact and distributing the load and this plays the role of a spring. What about socks? 3D SOX have a knitted panel at the toe end, forming a 3D thickness matched to the shape and movement of the toes and loosening the feeling of constriction. The 3D structure matched to the bulges on the sole of the foot (the ball of the big toe and the ball of the little toe) prevents slippage and increases the sense of a good fit. The support for the arch of the foot prevents the falling of the arch due to fatigue that would otherwise inhibit the ideal walking style. The design perceiving the characteristics of the human foot such as its bulges from the 3-dimensional perspective, and the knitted structure matched to the movement and functions of the muscles during exercise create delightful sock-wearing comfort. |

Functions of 3D SOX
- Toe-end 3D design
By making an extra panel for the toe end, the socks form a 3D bulge in line with the shape of the toe-end of the foot, loosening the feeling of constriction and improving sock function. - Fit to the ball of the big toe (Patent currently under application/ design rights acquired)
3D SOX increase the sense of a good fit with a 3D design matched to the shape of the ball of the big toe. - Fit to the ball of the little toe (Patent currently under application/ design rights acquired)
3D SOX increase the sense of a good fit with a 3D design matched to the shape of the ball of the little toe. - Arch-keeping support (Patent currently under application/ design rights acquired)
3D SOX stabilize the arch of the foot, which fulfills the spring function important in exercise, in an appropriate position to prevent the decline of performance due to fatigue.
The birth of advanced 3D SOX with innovative new technology added.
Cooma has fused 3D SOX with their excellent sense of fit and innovative new technology to create advanced 3D SOX that draw the maximum performance possible from athletes.
 |
These socks allow the foot to land with the ankle fixed in place and convert bounce from the track into speed. |
 |
Functionality that maintains a sense of fit and stability in unity with the foot supports consistent performance at all times. |
 |
These socks are enriched with safety functions to tough out a punishing race and unify with the athlete. |
 |
These are trail running socks to journey over mountains that emphasize cushioning and stability characteristics. |
 |
These socks lessen the impact on the foot of continuous running for long periods and support the foot against the decline of function due to fatigue to protect the alpinist safely. |
