Do professional soccer players wear two pairs of socks?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes, some footballers do wear two socks for matches. The first is an ankle-length grip sock which provides more grip between your feet and insole of football boots. The second sock is usually worn to cover your shin and shin guard. They are usually a footless sock or simply cut from regular full-length football sock. You may notice professional players regularly practising with just the ankle-length grip socks during their training sessions.
