MediCaptain socks provide unmatched protection and injury prevention by integrating essential protective features into a single high-performance sock. Created by entrepreneur Yaqub Najimi, who had experience with soccer injuries, these patent-pending socks have silicone padding to shield the vulnerable metatarsal region, anti-slip gripping on the inside and outside, and moisture-wicking fabric to keep feet cool and dry.
The MediCaptain Ultimate is an all-in-one soccer sock with maximum protection. It includes a built-in shin guard, metatarsal shock padding, and grip sock technology. The MediCaptain Lite is tailored to casual play and can be used in any sport that involves cleats and contact. This sock includes shock protection padding and grip sock technology for anti-slip.
Available in S to XL sizes, MediCaptain is available to pre-order on Kickstarter and is looking to raise $4,000. Perks include an Early Bird discount of $25 for one pair of MediCaptain Lite Grip Socks and free delivery in the US.
