Description

This pair of Lasting Sport IRM socks, from the 2000s, are designed for wearing when running. The toe and heel are made from polytetrafluorethylene, better known as Teflon (R), to prevent blisters. The socks were created by a form of seamless knitting again reducing the likelihood of rubbing.
