It’s important that your feet are comfortable, so Hannah Holden has run down the best socks you can buy

It’s Socktober! And you know what they say, you should always take a spare pair of socks when playing golf – in case you get a hole-in-one. Sorry. Here are the best golf socks your money can buy right now.

We’ll start with the long socks…

Best golf socks: FootJoy

The TechSof Tour Crew is probably the most popular socks in golf. You know what you’re getting here. Immense comfort, warmth, and did I say comfort?

RRP: From £11
More information: FootJoy website

Best golf socks: Ecco

The Ribbed is perfect if you’re after something that stands out. I love the texture and patterning here. And don’t worry, they have a wide range of colours if yellow doesn’t tickle your fancy.

RRP: From £6.99

Best golf socks: Under Armour

The Drive Crew socks features a cushioned arch support which Under Armour say helps to reduce foot fatigue. If you’re after something a little bolder they’re also available in red.

RRP: From £16

Best golf socks: Glenmuir

The Dunbar is a classic golf sock style these feature cushioning to protect against shocks and impact. They are also exceptionally soft.

And, if you’re anything like me and can’t remember the last time you wore a pair of long socks, here is a rundown of some of my favourite ankle sock offerings…

No one wants that dreaded feeling of your sock slipping down mid round. The ProDry Roll Tab feature anatomically shaped foot-beds to keep your sock in place throughout your round. Science!

They also come in women’s. These are my go-to socks, especially if I’m wearing shorts. They are extremely comfy thanks to inbuilt cushioning.

Available: Now
RRP: From £8
More information: FootJoy website

Best golf socks: Kymira

The Infrared have quickly become one of my favourite pairs of socks. They feature infrared technology – that’s where the name comes from – which is proven to increase bloodflow enhancing performance and accelerating recovery.

Best golf socks: Under Armour

The HeatGear No Show socks are the softest I have tested. These are my day-to-day socks if I’m out testing equipment. They are available in both the men’s and women’s UA ranges.
