Review: Keeping Your Feet Warm With SockGuy Products
Posted on Aug 01, 2011 under Reviews | No Comment
The more stuff I get to review, the more niches I find for stuff. I recently received a couple pair of SockGuy socks for review.
The low cut socks with a 3-inch cuff seemed to be best suited for cycling so I took them out for a 60-mile bike ride followed by a 6-mile run and thought they made my feet numb.
Hmmm, blame it on the socks.
I tried the same socks on a 7-mile run with no problems. I then took them out for the ultimate running test: I ran about seven miles in the rain with no slipping or bunching. They are very comfortable in uncomfortable situations.
I have a pair of crew style socks that are so good I wear them with casual clothes, such as jeans and a casual shirt. I love the socks but I am afraid that I have become exercise fashion conscious.
Quality socks usually cost from 5 to 15 dollars. SockGuy socks are usually 5-10 dollars. They are very comfortable and competitively priced. I love my SockGuy socks and would buy them off the rack of my local running store without a second thought.
Buy quality socks and your feet will thank you by not complaining.
The Good:
- Comfort, the packaging and the web site give you a lot of technical reasons for comfort but they just feel good on my feet.
- They are stylish. Now that I am fashion conscious, I like style.
- The price.
The Bad
- You have to wash them a few times before they become really comfortable.
- They can’t mold my bike shoes to my feet for me.
I like my SockGuy socks for both athletics and casual wear. They are very comfortable and well worth the price.
Mike’s Thoughts: I wear mine for riding and casual wear, as I’ve found I replaced most of my casual regular socks with tech clothing.
