Each one of the outer toe openings May interchangeably receive either the big toe or hallux of the foot or the two toes most distal from the big toe.
Claims5
A foot sock comprising:
- a tubular member defining a foot-receiving space therein, the tubular member having a first opening at a leg end thereof and a second opening at a toe end thereof, each of the first opening and the second opening being in communication with the foot-receiving space, the tubular member being sized and configured to contain a portion of a foot of a user when the foot sock is positioned in a use configuration;
- and
- a pair of separating members being coupled to the tubular member, each separating member being coupled to and extending between a dorsal portion of the tubular member and a sole portion of the tubular member at the toe end, the pair of separating members being laterally spaced from each other and dividing the second opening of the tubular member into a plurality of toe openings, each toe opening having an annular edge extending fully around the toe opening, the annular edges of the toe openings being coplanar with each other, each toe opening being configured to receive at least one toe of the foot when the foot sock is positioned in the use configuration, the plurality of toe openings being linearly arranged, the plurality of toe openings including a pair of outer toe openings which are similar in size to each other, wherein each outer toe opening of the pair of outer toe openings is sized and configured to interchangeably receive either a first toe of the foot or a fourth toe and a fifth toe of the foot.
