About Floky Run Up
Sportswear built on biomechanics
Floky is the world's first sportswear range engineered on the principles of biomechanics.
The problem — Running punishes the feet
Running punishes the feet in ways most socks aren't built for. The plantar arch takes hundreds of impacts per mile. The heel bears repeated shock. Blisters form where fabric bunches and rubs against skin. Ordinary socks add padding and hope for the best. Floky RUN UP is engineered differently.
The engineering — Built around the running stride
RUN UP is designed around how the foot moves through the running gait — heel strike, roll through the arch, push off the metatarsals. Graduated compression supports the plantar arch and holds the fabric in place, cutting the micro-movement that causes blisters. Zones of technical yarn reinforce the areas of highest impact, and breathable panels sit across the top of the foot where heat and moisture build up.
The result — Mechanical support, not just padding
The outcome is a sock that works with the foot instead of just wrapping it. Runners feel less foot fatigue on long runs, less blistering during and after, and better recovery between sessions. It's the difference between kit that protects you from the sport and kit that helps you do it better — engineered on the same biomechanical principles as the rest of the Floky range.
Who wears it — From the track to the padel court
RUN UP is worn by runners, padel players, footballers and multisport athletes across Europe — anyone whose sport puts repeated load on the feet. Made in Italy, tested at the professional level, sized for men and women. The everyday sock for people who take their feet seriously.
