The same things they are still made of (socks rarely use elastic in their construction). Wool and cotton are the major textiles used, and silk was sometimes used by the rich.
Before the invention of elastic, boys kept their socks up using garters or sock suspenders, which were straps that fastened around the leg and held the socks in place. These garters were typically made of fabric or leather and were tied or clipped to the socks. Additionally, some boys wore knee-length socks that were designed to stay up better due to their fit. Overall, these methods relied on manual adjustments rather than the stretchable materials we use today.
George Cayley invented seatbelts :)
We cannot say who invented slavery as an institution; slavery has been practised for a very long time, long before recorded history.
"Socks have evolved over the centuries from the earliest models which were made from animal skins gathered up and tied around the ankles. In the 8th century BC, the ancient Greeks wore socks from matted animal hair for warmth. Romans also wrapped their feet with leather or woven fabrics. By the 5th Century AD, socks called 'puttees' were worn by holy people in Europe to symbolise purity. By 1000 AD, socks became a symbol of wealth among the nobility. From the 16th Century on, an ornamental design on the ankle or side of a sock has been called a clock." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socks

Diabetic socks differ from ordinary cotton socks in the way that they are made to fit looser on the foot to increase circulation. They are also made of a combination of cotton, acrylic, nylon, and elastic fibers to keep the foot cool and dry.

Socks can cause indentations in the skin due to the pressure they exert on the underlying tissues, particularly if they are tight or made of elastic materials. When the elastic fibers compress the skin, they temporarily restrict blood flow and create a mark that can persist for a short time after the socks are removed. Additionally, the indentation may be more pronounced in areas where the fabric is thicker or has more elastic material. These indentations are generally harmless and resolve quickly once the pressure is relieved.
Socks as a form of clothing have been in existence for thousands of years. The earliest known socks date back to around 300-500 AD in ancient Egypt. These early socks were typically made of animal skins and served the purpose of providing warmth and protection for the feet.
