I found my sock!

I found my missing sock!

For months I was left with one sock and it happened to be my favorite pair of biking socks; my DeFeet Air-E-ator D sock. 

The Air-E-Ator was my first bike specific sock and I trully love them.   At first I was turned off with the idea of wearing black socks, even my sister made fun of my ‘fashion sense’.  But after a while I realized why why dark socks are best for trail riding; white or light colored socks get really dirty fast on a dusty trail!

The fit is great and the elastic retained its shape and hold even after over a year’s worth of laundering!  The color has not faded either.  The material dries out quickly thanks to CoolMax fabric  and the top of the sock is vented to allow feet to get air.

While I was looking for the aforementioned missing sock, I even bought another DeFeet Air-E-Ator pair to fill in that missing void.  I do have other pairs of biking socks (2 pairs of Fox) but my DeFeet are hands-down my favorite.
