Time for New Ski Socks – Technical Ones.
I Can’t Tell You, Who to Sock it to.
pop quiz: the lyric above is from what song and artist? clue: siblings left the city of cars to do their own thing.
Have you ever seen anything like this? Normally, I do buy merino wool-based ski socks – good wicking, no smell. I also usually opt for a good brand which offers men’s and women’s fit (not just blue or pink!) and left and right socks; after all I don’t have two left feet! However, the pair of new ski socks Andrew has just bought are something else!
The packaging looks like a wiki-pedia entry and the list of ‘ingredients’ lists fibres I’ve never heard of; what on earth is ‘Robur’?
Not sure how they’ll perform inside a ski boot; our first ski trip to Austria is now only a few days away, so I’ll report back then.
pop trivia: the ‘Isley Brothers’ left ‘Motown’ records in 1968. This is a line from their first, post leaving, single; the 1969 chart topping ‘It’s Your Thing’. This song has since been covered by around 60 different artists.
Don’t miss any of my blog posts. You should make sure you follow me on X or Facebook. I’d also welcome any ideas for future posts. Please supply me with ski news and updates that you know about or would like me to write about. Thank you.
