It's mainly to prevent blisters and skin peeling on the mats, which can happen to anyone, especially beginners. Wearing socks can help with that.

In Western culture, showing bare feet in public is generally considered impolite or awkward, so wearing socks is a way to maintain some level of modesty.

I think some people wear socks to avoid getting their feet dirty, especially after training on black rubber mats. It's a practical reason, but it can also make the floor slippery and affect their grip.

It's likely due to concerns about foot fungus and other diseases. Wearing socks is a way to minimize contact with potentially contaminated surfaces.
