Uhuh, yep in NO way shape or form do they refer to you being able to bunker people, nor do they say, this will enhance your athletic performance or put Chris La Soya to shame with a fantastic run through. NO they specifically say they will ..work in tandem with your shoe... and are built with extra padding in pressure areas.. These prevent, or more specifically ( which is something we should remember to be alot more around here) help to work in junction with your foot, reducing injuries like sprains and reduce the likeliehood of sore feet.

Although I do agree that something like a stupid sock is not going to improve your play it is simply an advertising ploy to rid the world of all competition, $1 making a sock will net them $15, and if all the newbie's buy a pair cos Dynasty are wearin them, then it was money well invested on their part.

They probably work, but they're grey. Why not blue if we're going for tactical colors. Blue would enhance your calm behind that bunker getting pounded by 16 BPS and allow you to focus on communicating with you teammates. Also that Black stripe in the center isn't very feng shui cause it cuts off the power of the foot, i.e. the toes, from the source of their guidance, i.e. the brain. Nope, in my opinion plain white socks have more tactical value then these until they are modified. Does anyone make aftermarket modifications for them yet? Maybe I could get a KAPP flame dye job on them, or a WGP beavertail loop to help pull them up in the back.:)
