    Yeah, I learned it from guys in the army. It’s because dress socks reduce friction, and the normal socks absorb sweat.

      Why doesn’t the army just make blister-preventing socks?

      That really sounds like some amazing government invention that gets everywhere. Like accelerometers. Or Tang.
