Diabetic socks market growth is expected to be driven by an increasing number of diabetic patients worldwide as a result of rapid urbanization, nutrition transformation, and increasingly sedentary lifestyles. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there were approximately 26.9 million persons diagnosed with diabetes in the United States, with 26.8 million of them being adults. Furthermore, the introduction of numerous government initiatives focused on lessening the diabetic burden is supporting business growth. The Indian Medical Association (IMA), for example, held screening camps and mass awareness campaigns to promote awareness about the disease.

The development of smart sock technology is one of the major emerging trends in the global market. Some diabetic socks include built-in sensors that monitor foot temperature and provide messages to an app if, for example, an ulcer forms. They have a battery the size of a dime on the outside of the sock, close to the ankle. These socks typically have a six-month lifespan. For example, the San Francisco-based company Siren has created socks with microsensors woven in that can detect diabetic foot issues. Siren has developed Neurofabric, a fabric with microsensors woven right into it. The company stated that Neurofabric's sensors are completely seamless and virtually undetectable to the user and that they can be created inexpensively and easily using standard industrial technology. This is a crucial element driving the diabetic socks market's revenue growth, particularly in the healthcare industry.

The North America market accounted for the largest revenue share in 2021, owing to the presence of major pharmaceutical companies, favorable government regulations, and increasing recommendations for diabetic socks by various hospitals across the US, which has led to increased demand for these socks in this region. The US Department of Health recommends that diabetic patients always wear cotton or wool diabetic socks to keep their feet dry and avoid exposure to injury or bacteria. Cotton and wool socks, according to official authorities, are ideal for diabetics because they keep the feet dry. When advising patients, healthcare practitioners regularly use diabetes foot care and general diabetes care material provided by pharmaceutical companies.
