I like my tan lines to be crisp, so I bought 10 pairs of CAM socks from Chris Willemse on Black Friday and now the border between neon white skin and the tanned fun zone is getting more defined. No more of this ombre ***. Find a sock that works and stock up boyz.

 

IMO the CAM ones are great, good length, affordable, and they stay where you leave them

supported them in the beginning, but after 6 pairs all with holes in the toes I got myself different socks. Dont think they are so reasonably priced anymore

 

Cut your toenails.  :whistling:

Its comforting to know that there are other good, sensible and sane people like me out there.

 

Ombre ***, hahahaha  :clap:  :clap:  :clap:

Try juggling your hockey and cycling tan lines to be crisp. Keeps you sane by having them crisp, makes you insane trying to keep them crisp.

 

Maybe Versus should expand to hockey socks so I can have a uniform range of socks for that too.

Or you can just stop being a maniac and quit hockey... only good reason to play hockey is if you have Jason Voorhees type ambitions?

Maybe it was sock length that finally pushed Jason over the edge. And it's Friday the 26th today, which is 2x Friday the 13th. Be safe out there

That's where I get all my activewear shirts from. Bloody cheap, bloody comfortable. 

 

Socks - Falke or Checkers. Cheap as chips, comfortable AF and they last a while. Couldn't GAF what the sockilluminati say. If they're comfortable, they stay.

 

Sockilluminati ----- me likey !

 

Cant afford a pinarello or a spez so socks have become incredibly important, think I need to start a thread: which socks ? As long as they are all the correct length all brands can be compared.

Short socks as well as long compression socks have to have their own thread, headed: ridiculous or more ridiculous ?

Confusing ice hockey and field hockey here. Now ice hockey players, those okes are maniacs!

Field hockey players are even more off their rockers. Eg: Gen has a few in her hen house and the only thing that I can attribute her unreasonable and irrational posts too, its the only plausible explanation :P

only heard about this guy recently.

 

 

How does SA fit in with your vision? And have you seen any growth?

Yes, definitely – we are doing sales here. South Africa has always been behind with fashion in general. Even street fashion. I started the sock-doping trend in this country – not the world, but this country. Other brands have also started, but it can’t be denied that I was the first. Bike fashion is growing. Even now, several pro teams are getting more au fait with designs, and looking less like moving billboards.

I don’t make performance products – I want to make people feel and look good.

I must be honest, I don't like all the weird, trendy stuff their pumping out now with ice-creams and popcorn on them. Plain black socks are the best.

 

So, if you want to support local, wear socks with a great fit and look sexy..
