Abstract (en)

A sock that is less likely to slip off and provide an excellent wearing feeling while ensuring a state of the sock being hard to see. This sock provides a foot connecting portion 14 between a toe portion 11 and a heel portion 12. The sock also provides an ankle connecting portion 15 between the heel portion 12 and a body portion 13. The foot connecting portion 14 and the ankle connecting portion 15 that sandwich the heel portion 12 are knitted as non-cylindrical knitted fabrics having predetermined knitting widths, respectively, to form an opening 16 surrounded by the toe portion 11, the foot connecting portion 14, the heel portion 12, the ankle connecting portion 15, and the body portion 13 to open an area from the ankle to the instep in a worn state. This prevents an instep portion of the sock from protruding from a shoe and becoming visible.
