These net socks were designed to protect people from mosquito bites while they are enjoying outdoor activities.
While not the most fashionable clothing items, the mosquito-repelling socks go up to the wearer's knees and can be worn over clothing and shoes. The socks were designed as a response to the risks that come along with being bitten by mosquitoes that carry West Nile or the Zika virus. Since most people find that using insect repellent along with clothing still does not completely protect from mosquito bites, these net socks might be the alternative that people need.
These socks are an excellent clothing option for people who spend time outdoors, whether it is for recreational purposes or for work.
