Socks - Thorlos
Well I finally found a sock that I really liked. It was the New Balance all-purpose court sock. Mine have almost bit the big one and I was getting ready to order more only to find out they quit making them - go figure, that's how it usually works!
Anyways, I am eye-balling the Thorlos Over-the-Calf Support Socks. Anybody wear this sock? If so, comments? |
I have found the WrightSock to be very comfortable. Expensive, yet durable and satisfying.

Been wearing Thorlo's since 1999. Wouldn't wear anything else.

Other than the new coolmax hiking socks they make, which are pretty decent, I've always hated Thorlo. I have swamp foot when I wear their socks.
Anyway, there's only one name in socks for athletic purposes (and believe me when I say I've tried them ALL): Feetures. They come in a regular and light (thin) version in quarter length and crew. Also in no show, but I doubt many officials are interested in that. They don't saturate, feel like you are holding water, or keep your feet hot. I have to wear 2 pair, and I wear the lights then the regular on top. Works perfect for me and socks have always been a problem before this. The only problem with them is that the black socks -- mainly the regular -- do fade a little over time. Its funny that (for me) the lights don't fade, but that's what I wear on bottom! That shouldn't be a big problem, and I keep several pair and wear them all throughout the year. I also wear the lights (white) under my football socks in the fall and they are the only socks I run and work out in. |
I'm a fan of Under Armour's athletic socks. They're thick, soft, and do a good job of staying dry. After a season of use they have not faded. Although you can not wash/dry them with towels, as you'll have the lint ball effect on them.
I have also heard good things about Thorlos |
All Thorlos, all the time. 6 pairs in the rotation. Absolutely love them.

I wear the Gerry Davis sock. I have worn them for about 5 or 6 years and I have about 12 pair in rotation. They hold up very well.

Camron and Juggling,
Is this the only thing you wear or do you wear the Thorlo over another sock? I just got mine in today! |
