Eldron Posted November 16, 2018 Share In the old days the SACF used to go around measuring logos and if they were bigger than allowed you had to tape over them. The allowed size was like 30x30mm or something stupid. Velouria and Underachiever 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin Posted November 17, 2018 Share Yeah , but why come with a story about anatomical morphological changes and some perceived performance gain. The reason for a proper sock is to look proper . Sock matches shoe matches pant . End of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted November 17, 2018 Share The UCI seems keen to crack down on teams using clothing for marginal gains (without actually mentioning Team Sky), rather than for the purposes of safety or modesty Wow, so other teams will complain that Sky's sock length is another reason why they are so dominant. At least local the CSA lic guys riding non sanctioned events will have nothing to fear from the comms for socks.
