Racing Stripe 18 Sock

Merino Wool is renowned for its softness, lightweight nature, and breathability. It helps regulate temperature and wick moisture away from your skin, keeping your feet dry and comfortable during activities like cycling. This makes it an excellent choice for both warm and cool weather.

Nylon-reinforced socks are designed to be more durable, especially in high-friction areas like the heel and toe. This added strength helps prevent wear and tear, ensuring your socks last longer, which is particularly beneficial for active individuals who frequently engage in cycling or other sports.

A crew sock rises to the mid-calf, providing more coverage than ankle socks. This style is preferred for cycling as it offers additional protection for your lower legs and helps keep them warm, making your ride more comfortable, especially in cooler conditions.

Lightweight socks are designed to be less bulky, allowing for greater comfort and freedom of movement. They are perfect for warmer weather or for those who prefer a snug fit that doesn’t feel constricting, making them ideal for cycling and other physical activities.

Socks without additional cushioning provide a closer feel to your shoe and the pedal, which many cyclists prefer for better control and responsiveness. This minimalist design can enhance performance by allowing for a more direct connection with your bike, making it a popular choice among serious cyclists.

To ensure a good fit, refer to the sizing chart provided with the product. It's important to choose the right size for your foot to maximize comfort and performance. If you're between sizes, consider the type of fit you prefer—snug for performance or a bit looser for comfort.
