Momentum socks are knit from the cuff down, featuring a textured ribbed cuff for elasticity, followed by a playful, striped leg that transitions smoothly using jogless stripes. The instep increases to create a comfortable fit, and the short-row heel is shaped with double stitches to minimize gaps. After shaping the foot, the sock is finished with a classic rounded toe and seamless grafting.
