THE SOCKS
We have searched and tested to find some of the finest quality activity specific socks available for our site customers. To do this, we’ve had to become familiar with:
- 1) how socks are made
- 2) what they are made of, and
- 3) how these things affect sock performance and comfort.
We have tried to pass along some of what we have learned to our customer in the “Footwear Secrets” tab—hopefully allowing you to become a more knowledgeable and satisfied consumer. Under the same tab, we have also included information about how to care for socks as well as some tips on caring for your feet.
We’d like to stress that by reading and understanding the feel and performance of the fabric content in your socks, you will buy more wisely and walk, run, etc. more comfortably and happily.
THE SOCKLINKS™ AND WHY
Like just about everything else of quality, the cost of hi-tech, high performance socks has steadily increased. Because socks are intended to protect and condition the environment of your feet—perhaps the hardest working part of your body—we see that the purchase of socks as an INVESTMENT in yourself. But that investment you make in taking care of your feet seems to want to become “pair-less” as soon as you take your socks off. “Where’s the other sock” has become the laundry day or travel mantra.
So if you are tired of losing the mate to your expensive socks—or fed up with sorting laundried socks, buy PAIRED SOCKS with Socklinks™ from Link2sox.com and get the linking system FREE on every pair you buy. Not only will you cease losing mates, but you’ll also save 5-20 minutes a week by not having to sort socks from the laundry pile—we call the little links time(saving) machines! Environmentally, besides eliminating loss and waste, Socklinks make it easy to hang dry your socks from a clothesline, shower rod, backpack or bush, either saving energy or allowing the user to travel with fewer socks and a lighter bag or pack. One further bonus of hang drying: UV-rays in sunshine are nature’s great bacteria and odor killer.
