The benefits include cushion arch support built into the socks. Although I'm often partial to cotton, 100% cotton socks are not necessarily the best fabric for potentially sweaty feet. These have 87% polyester, 11% cotton, and 1% lycra spandex and are made to wick moisture away from our feet. Ok, great!
What first attracted me to Athletic Works socks was the innovative, compact packet, and what sold me was the arch support. When traveling just toss the packet of socks neatly into a suitcase, then pull them out one pair at a time much like pulling out tissues from a Kleenex box after you reach your destination.
The socks come in an assortment of lengths from no-show, or ankle to crew, or tube; as well as, for men, women, and children; and in enough neutral shades to match your wardrobe.
Don't let the unbeatable value fool you! You get 10 - 12 pairs of socks cheap depending on the style selected. The socks are soft, cozy, and do indeed keep your feet dry. After wearing them for months, I decided to buy some for my senior mother also. She can benefit from arch support too. Have you been paying too much for socks?
These look great Debbie. I buy socks in packs of three, but would love a 10 pack. I buy black for Winter and white for Summer. Maybe I can put this on my Christmas list - there is a Walmart near my daughter's home in Canada :)
ReplyDeleteAt $1 or less a pair, it's worth a pack or two. I thought I was doing good with paying $2 a pair at H & M, but these are better quality. The arch support is very nice!
DeleteA foot doctor recommended I get compression socks for her, but I don't have the strength to get them on her, so I got her these socks plus an athletic compression leg sleeve that joggers wear to run. Seems to work. We could never struggle so much every morning to get dressed! Boy are compression socks tight! I question whether or not they would cut off the circulation in an old person's legs!
