cut resistence skate socks?

[avery16 5]

anyone have any thoughts on these cut proof socks? seems like every company offers them, any insights or reviews into each brands?

The best pair that I've used were made by easton. I tried to cut them and still wasn't able to. The Bauer ones seemed pretty low quality on the other hand.

I'm not sure what you'd search for (maybe socks and then muddle through the results), but there was a good long discussion about these socks after Karlsson got cut.

I've used both Bauer Elite Performance and the Tuff n Lite Pro Thin protective socks. The Bauers were a little itchy, and the material, especially in the ankles, started to harden over time due to the friction inside my skate. The Tuff n Lites are phenomenal! They feel just like cotton gym socks.

i searched cut proof, cut resistence, then added socks.. the eastons are the ones im leaning towards because they dont seem to go up as high.. any thoughts on the comfort of the eastons?

The topic started out in the NHL section, but the conversation turned towards cut proof socks so it was moved to the equipment section.

I have the warrior cut resistance ones and I've never tried to rip them (so I don't waste my money) but they haven't been itchy at all and fit super tight/comfortable.

are the tuff n light the only "cotton" ones.. it seems like every major brand has a sweat wicking material, i find to be uncomfortable... anyway just cut the foot part off? there was a few mentions of this in that thread.. only page 1 and 2 seem to be about actual cut resistance socks....

edit- seems like hogan hockey does have "sleeves"... cant find it on the site, but its there on their ebay store..

Hogan sells both cut resistant socks and shin tights (sleeves) for referees. Located on page 2 of their site - hard to navigate to. Also available at www.refstuff.ca

Looks like McGratton was wearing Reebok kevlar socks and they saved him.
