#AERO POWWWER
As expected the POWWWER Socks tested strongest in most categories apart from recovery. The last parameter obviously suffers from power output and strength on the other parameters. Logically heart-rate (bpm), velocity (km/h) and strain increased significantly with maximum power output (watt) - all fueled by maximum energy consumption (kcal). This would be the model we recommend our athletes on race-day when it all comes down to maximizing your numbers.
As cyclists we all know the feel of wearing a fresh pair of white socks. That bit of extra motivation making you go faster than initially expected.
To understand and further examine if white socks are really faster we conducted a pseudo-scientific study testing eight different pairs of white socks. The different words and symbols on each pair will provide a highly non-scientific framework to whatever ride or activity you have in mind.
FINGERSCROSSED AERO is a sock made from a combination of nylon & elastane. The structure of the upper part of the sock ensures maximum aerodynamics. The seamless toe and the elastic fit contribute to a high wearing comfort. Non-slip silicone fabric on cuff. Compression band for more stability at the instep.
