Why Do Football Players Cut Holes in Their Socks?

The reason players cut holes in their socks is to reduce pressure on the calf muscles, which can be restricted by the more modern, form-fitting shape of football socks.

As some professional players have bigger calf muscles, tighter knee-length football socks can cause difficulties with effective blood flow and circulation, as well as breathability. That’s why players will cut slits in their socks to reduce any problems and improve their game.

Footballing superstars like Real Madrid and England’s Jude Bellingham has created rips in his socks, much like his compatriot Bukayo Saka. Brazilian icon Neymar has also cut multiple holes into his national team socks too.

As the trend grows in the professional game, not everyone is convinced by the legality of it…

The ‘Special One’ José Mourinho hit out at the growing number of players adopting the style on social media, writing: ‘Beautiful socks for the Beautiful Game… Approved by the football authorities.’
