Silicone does not make the skin itchy, they are pure, transparent and tasteless, they are friendly to the skin, and there is no evidence that they are related to itchy skin. Latex, which is very similar to silicone, may cause skin irritation. Because any latex products will contain a very small amount of sulfide, some people's skin is very sensitive to this, so some people are allergic to latex products. But silicone and latex are completely different substances. Although they both have great elasticity, but silicone does not make the skin itchy.
Of course, the fact that silicone does not make the skin itchy, buy cannot prove that they are effective for thigh high socks. Silicone is usually used on thigh high socks that tend to slide down. Manufacturers hope that these silicones can help thigh high socks stay on the thighs. But in most cases, these silica gels will not work. Because the adhesiveness of silicone alone cannot hold the shrinking socks, especially when you are walking, the socks will slip quickly.
Not only that, the silicone will easily stick the top of the socks into a ball, they will stick to anything they can stick to, you may need to spend a few minutes to sort the top of the socks to release these stuck parts. You will also find that the top of these socks will show an unnatural wrinkle, which is caused by the stretching of the silicone part. In my opinion, silicone does not belong to thigh high socks, they are not a good partner.
High-quality thigh high socks do not require silicone as an auxiliary material. Because high-quality thigh high socks never slip, such as Kayhoma thigh high socks. They have very good elasticity, can stay on the thighs all the time, and will not cause muffin thighs. Kayhoma is the best brand of thigh high socks.
