Submitted by Gennaro Salamone a Weekend Warrior from Richardson, Tx, USA
Date Reviewed: August 17, 2006
Favorite Trail:Rockwall Creek Preserve
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Price Paid: $7.00
Purchased At:Richardson Bike Mart
Strengths:Fit snugly, don't move around at all while riding, keep my feet relatively dry (compared to standard cotton socks)
Weaknesses:It wicks away the sweat from my feet but it makes my shoes soggy.
Bottom Line:I like the socks. They are durable and stay tight for the entire ride.

I don't have much to say about their "cooling/wicking" ability since I havent tried many biker socks.

Submitted by Chris a Cross Country Rider from Phoenix, AZ, USA
Date Reviewed: August 1, 2003
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $6.00
Purchased At:REI
Strengths:Lightweight, breatheable, no frills design
Weaknesses:None
Similar Products Used:Asics, Various "athletic" socks
Bike Setup:Not important here
Bottom Line:These socks rock. In the heat of the AZ summer, they allow my feet to breath, wick away moisture, and provide a level of comfort I've not found in other socks. They're simple black and white socks without the crazy designs, logos, etc. you'll find on other "performance" biking socks. They come in sizes to fit most any foot, don't feel bulky, and have maintained their elasticity after dozens of washings. Can't ask for much more from a simple sock.

Submitted by Rob Fox a from Negaunee, Mi
Date Reviewed: May 15, 2003
Favorite Trail:Naturbuhn luge run
Duration Product Used:2 Years
Price Paid: $7.00
Purchased At:Colorado Cyclist
Strengths:The attack sock rules that funky spot in between your sweaty feet and a sometimes not so comfy insole/shoe. Whoever figure out this blend of materials hit it right on the money. Its weird how cotton, which is usually frowned upon in performance sock construction, actually makes this sock that much better than all the others. The sock does not become damp. But, instead dries while in use keeping the feet comfy, happy and most importantly - blister free.
Weaknesses:Wear along the achilles area
Similar Products Used:Defeet, Wright sock, Other Pearl Izumi models
Bike Setup:A GT fun machine
Bottom Line:Blisters or abrasion problems? Use these socks.

Submitted by Matt a Cross Country Rider from So Cal
Date Reviewed: April 22, 2002
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $7.00
Purchased At:Supergo and others...
Strengths:Comfort, Quality, Colors.
Similar Products Used:AXO Socks.
Bottom Line:I have 4 pairs of these socks and I love them, I wear them in an everyday capacity and they are great. I wear a size 13 shoe and they even feel comfortable on a big a-- foot like mine.
