Shreveport LA may be a warm southern city, but it still can get into the 30s at night during the month of January.1 That’s why you’ll want to make sure and pack some cozy socks for your short-term visit here at our extended stay Shreveport. In this post, we’ll explore some different options for socks so you can put your best foot forward!
Get a Move On! The Ultimate Guide for Socks
Socks may seem like an essential item that you can get without much thought, but that’s not true! Check out a few of the types you can pick from when packing your suitcase…- Of course, in the winter, cozy socks are the best overall choice. After all, who doesn’t want their toes to be snug and happy while watching TV in our fully furnished short term rentals? Check out these UGG Cozy Socks for a soft, comfy option you’ll love. If you’d rather have wool socks for extra warmth, Darn Tough is a good brand with socks for hunting, hiking, running etc. Or, if you want a cheaper Merino wool-blend sock, try ordering this 4-pack from Costco.
- Want something with a little more substance on your feet? Think slipper socks…it’s the best of both worlds. You’ll love puttering around your rental making dinner or doing laundry with a pair of Muk Luks Slipper Sox or even the Gripper Slipper from Bombas. The best thing about this type of foot covering is that it usually has little rubber pads on the bottom to give you extra traction and gripping ability when walking. Why slip and fall when you don’t have to?
- Frequent travelers know that compression socks are a help for overall health, especially since they sit for long periods of time in the car or on an airplane. They are designed to help prevent swollen legs and blood clots. Some options include the Away brand Compression Socks or something from Sockwell. Travel nurses also can like wearing this type of sock since they are on their feet for hours and hours. However, please be sure to talk to your doctor before using compression socks.
- Athletic, exercise and workout socks all have one key feature at heart…breathability. After all, who wants to finish a morning run with sweaty, wet feet? The Balega running socks get great reviews on Amazon. You can also view this article on WomensHealthMag.com for additional suggestions.
- Some socks take moisture away, while others keep moisture in. If you suffer from dry, cracked feet, try aloe-infused socks while you’re sleeping!
- While you’re here in Louisiana, you can’t forget a pair of fun patterned socks! The Royal Standard is originally from Baton Rouge, and offers several thematic options you can’t pass up. Check them out when you’re making a sightseeing trip to New Orleans or order online.
