mojo122 538 Report post Posted February 8, 2015 There are several great performance socks on the market. I'm a fan of compression fitting socks and of the 37.5 technology. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BRUINS_FAN_74 19 Report post Posted February 8, 2015 I used to use the Bauer Premium sock, and they are/were great. Kept your feet dry, nice and thin with compression in the right spots. I started skating barefooted a while ago and will never wear socks again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shoot_the_goalie 281 Report post Posted February 8, 2015 I wear FoxRiver sock liners cause I like a very thin sock. These are some of the thinnest I have found that still absorb sweat well. Stable 26 socks are great too, and give you the added benefit of the fit pads, but they are a thicker sock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BRUINS_FAN_74 19 Report post Posted February 8, 2015 I personally feel like I get a better fit than I do with socks. No blisters,etc... either from going barefoot,feels really comfortable to me. I do remove my insoles after I wear my skates and fully flop the tongues over to let skates air out. I did the same even when I wore socks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IPv6Freely 2096 Report post Posted February 9, 2015 I'd have even bigger calluses on my big toes than I do now if I went barefoot. In my goal skates I even wear a rubber toe cover on my big toe to provide some cushion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MatthewRoach7 130 Report post Posted March 5, 2015 I own the 2nd socks listed and these : http://bauer.com/hockey-apparel-on-ice-base-layer/premium/ng-performance-skate-sock. I like both of them. The first pair I have over dried them and they are feeling a little off. The Bauer Premium socks that I linked to are holding up very well. Would recommend them to anyone looking.

orelayer 4 Report post Posted March 5, 2015 Are these thin, medium thickness or thick?I would say medium. For reference they are not as thin as the Bauer Core sock but thinner than the new 37.5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
