He got the idea to take the technology used in bulletproof vests to be applied to socks. As quoted by the Daily Mail, a product named "Socrates" is guaranteed not to be easily stretched and easily damaged because it has kevlar fibers of the material that is usually used in bulletproof vests.
The material is sewn into one to protect the toes and heels. The Kevlar threaded part of the fabric of carbon built in lycra were installed around the foot and heel.
