Ultimate Skating Socks

Recommended Posts

I'm a big fan of the Wigwam Ultimax liner socks. They're keeping my ancient all-leather skates nearly dry after two-hour sessions. There's also the Wigwam Gobi liner, which is even thinner, but not as comfortable or as efficient at wicking sweat up off the foot to the calf.

I have a few pairs of those ultimax socks.. i also have a pair of easton skate socks.. same thing.. just a thin moisture wicking sock. i wouldn't go out of my way for them when u can pick up something similar at ur lhs for the same price

I used to use track hose as socks and I would get horrible blisters if I skated multiple days in a row. Now that I switched to the "Ultimate Skating Sock" (Wigwam), I don't get blisters as quickly. They're nice socks, not too thick which I like.

Forgot my OxySox and had to go with regular athletic socks tonight at pickup. A world of difference...for the worse.

Once you go Oxy...you have a difficult decision on whether or not to go back.

That site does not give any proof as to why those socks are super awesome. Kind of stupid if you ask me. Just where something comfy and get wheels that fit?

I'm with Doc Hook. The Oxy's are a great fit comfort and functional sox. They last forever and stay consistant. They dont stretch out nor do they wear thin. I got the same 6pr deal on Ebay and cant imagine when I will ever where them all other than if I lose a pair somewhere. I only wished they go up higher than my mid shin.

Like with dudes...there's shrinkage when they hit water.

But pairing Oxy's with Superfeet greys have turned my beat to hell 652's into the sex on ice.

And I agree with A2 and DH.

There's something about the Nike Dri-Fit socks that make my feet feel a little too kitten soft and I really didn't like that but the OxySox don't have that problem. I guess I should get another pair before they become completely unavailable.
