The Socks
Why bamboo socks? You may be wondering why these socks are special, and why you shouldn't just go to Target and pick up a pair of socks. These socks are made from bamboo. Bamboo has natural properties that wick moisture from your feet, prevent bacteria and increases circulation in your feet. Bamboo is also good for the Earth. It takes 24,000 gallons of water to turn cotton into a pound of fabric. Bamboo only needs 12.
I was sent two pairs of socks: men's dress socks and women's ankle socks
Men's dress socks
Women's ankle socks
First Observations:
When I opened up the socks, I noticed how incredibly soft they were. The socks have reinforced toes. I was really excited to try out the socks.
The Test:
I wasn't able to test the men's socks, because my husband has a size 14 foot (the socks only go to 12). I tested out the women's socks. I wore them around the house all day, while taking care of my two small children. I am pretty picky about my socks and usually just go barefoot because my feet get too hot. These socks stayed put and were comfortable all day.
I decided to also test them on a run. I really enjoy running (I just started in May), but I haven't found the right running socks. These socks worked great. I really wish I could get a whole running outfit made like these socks.
The Package
Final Thought: I am really impressed with these socks. I was disappointed that my husband can't wear them, but not many people wear a size 14 shoe. I love the women's socks. I really like the reinforced toe and I think it will keep my socks from getting holes in them. Zocksters are incredibly comfortable and really keep your feet cool and dry.
