Dr. Foot® Silver Protect

Our toe socks with antibacterial silver thread

Frequently asked questions

Particularly the heel, toes, and the spaces between the toes are anatomically susceptible to bacterial colonization. To actively counteract this problem, we have integrated a silver yarn into the forefoot and heel area, which is closely woven with the cotton fiber.

Toe socks sustainably improve the foot climate by separating the toes and widening the spaces between them. This positive change in the microclimate – reduced temperature and lower moisture – creates unfavorable conditions for harmful microorganisms. The silver thread, which lies directly against the skin in the spaces between the toes, can thus combat germs in a targeted and efficient manner.

Conventional socks may completely enclose the foot, but they ignore the individual anatomy of the toes. As a result, the toes are pressed tightly together – which not only restricts air circulation but also creates microclimates that offer ideal breeding grounds for harmful bacteria. The spaces between the toes become biological hiding places that antimicrobial materials simply cannot reach. Worse still, the constant pressure of the toes against each other actively encourages microbial growth in these very areas.

Our silver thread is built to last – its effectiveness doesn't fade. In fact, it retains 99% of its antimicrobial power even after 200 washes.

No. We simply use a yarn that contains silver, which can naturally help combat germs. However, if you have an infection, athlete's foot, or any other medical condition, please always consult a doctor first.

All our toe socks are designed and manufactured in our own knitting mill in Wakayama, Japan. Behind Knitido® stands a family business in its second generation, with over 40 years of experience mastering the art of toe sock knitting from the ground up. We are proud to have been the very first producer of toe socks in Japan – and to this day, we continue to drive this pioneering work with the same dedication. Every pair bears the hallmark of our hometown Wakayama: precise, sustainable, and with love for the smallest detail.
