Super Ski Sock Review

X-Socks Ski Comfort Man Socks
I know it’s summer time (kind of, although last nights hail was a shock in London for June) but I’ve just had a great review come in for the X-Socks Ski Comfort Man Socks. It’s a great review, worth a read and might be worth storing in the memory banks for when the season kicks off again and you’re looking for socks that suit you.
Check out the review on the X-Socks Ski Comfort Man product page.
I win
Jun/090
The May 2009 Review Writing Competition was won by me. You see, no one wrote a review during May so I can’t give away a free pair of X-Socks. That’s a shame really because all winning review writers so far have been extremely pleased that they have won and very grateful for a brand new free pair of X-Socks.
If you didn’t know about the competition it’s quite simple. You write a review about some socks on www.buyXsocks.com and at the end of each month I read the reviews for that month and award the ‘best’ review a free pair of X-Socks. You’ve got to be in it to win it so go to www.buyXsocks.com and get a review written during June and give yourself the chance to be a winner.
Have Fun.

No One Wants Free Socks
Jan/090
This seems to be true. There were no customer reviews at all during December 2008 so I guess I get to keep a pair of socks and someone out there, which could be you, doesn’t have a free lovely pair of X-Socks on their feet.
Getting a free pair of socks is simple, just make a review online for one of the products on this site and you could win a pair of X-Socks. What’s certain is if you don’t review you will not win any socks.
Gotta be in it to win it. Get Reviewing now on buyXsocks.com

FREE SOCKS! FREE SOCKS!

You know the score by now, probably. I give away a free pair of X-Socks to the best customer product review made during that month. We are nearing the end of Nov 08 and to be in with a chance of winning a new pair of X-Socks you need to make some customer reviews.
Trekking Extra Warm Glowing Review
Nov/080
A previous post mentioned the Trekking Extra Warm socks and that they received an excellent 5 star review from the BBC CountryFile Magazine. The packaging, I think, has baffled the CountryFile reviewer however the sock got excellent marks and the review is well worth a read.

Ed won some socks – do you want some?
Nov/081
Ed Hawkins, the winner of my October Free Sock Comp, is back from his trip to Florida where he did lot’s and lot’s of hard exercise wearing X-Socks. I’ll be able to update you on Ed’s trip and his view on how the socks performed for him soon, I just need to give him a rest first.
He hasn’t yet chosen his free pair but when that’s happened I’ll let you know as well.
How did Ed win some socks?
He simply entered a customer review of some socks during October. I chose the winning review in early November. It’s that simple. Every month I have a “Customer Product Review Competition” where the prize for the ‘best’ customer sock review is a brand new pair of X-Socks. All you gotta do is get reviewing, you gotta be in it to win it, as they say.
Honestly, it’s no harder than that. Just make a customer review (you could make as many as you like) and you could win a new pair of socks.
The November 2008 competition ends on the last day of the month, so start your reviewing now – Give Yourself the Chance.
Having Fun
James.
Top Marks for the Winter Run Socks
Nov/080
I just received an excellent review in my inbox, it was from a customer who recently purchased the X-Socks Winter Run Socks. Sarah from Cheshire, has some excellent words about the Winter Run socks, in summary she says:
…so i turned to x-socks which were slightly more expensive than others on the market. But wow you certainly get what you pay for and they really do do exactly what they say they do.

Thanks for the great review Sarah.

CountryFile Magazine gives 5 Star Review
Nov/080
The most recent BBC CountryFile Magazine has reviewed some X-Socks and given a 5/5 top notch review. The magzine reviews a sock called the X-Socks Trekking Mountain Sock, however this is a new name to come in for 2009 and the current sock is actually called the “Trekking Extra Warm”.
So “Trekking Extra Warm” is the current name and in 2009 the name changes to “Trekking Mountain” and the actual sock stays the same.
Gorgeously warm socks and while they are not cheap they are not budget socks from a budget shop. These are at the very top end of the spectrum and if you want to enjoy your winter hill walking and worry less about your feet then you need to invest in one decent pair of warm winter hill walking socks and 5 out of 5 from BBC Countryfile Magazine is EXCELLENT.

Have Fun

October 2008 Free Sock Competition Winner
Nov/080
You might know by now that I give away a free pair of X-Socks to the customer who submits the best product review. There no criteria for what constitutes ‘The Best’, it’s just what I consider ‘The Best’ to be at that time.
The winner for the October 2008 Free Sock Comp is: Edward Hawkins and here is his review of the Run Energizer (Compression) Socks
I’ve been using these since Ironman UK this in prep for going the Ironman 70.3 World Cahmps in Florida on 8th November this year. At first I used during my longer training runs so I could recover quicker, but after two weeks I’ve brought another two pairs and I used them durin all my run sessions. I am also now going to use them on the bike and on the run sections in the World Champs! Super I can not speak any higher of them. Well worth the money, Cheers BuyXsocks.com, World Champs here I come!
Here are a few of the other reviews:
Peter Boswell on the Army Long Socks
I’m a lorry driver and I wanted some thick socks that didn’t make my feet sweat when I was wearing boots. I found Xsocks in a local shop but they only had ski style. I bought a pair to try, they were great. Comfortable, warm, excellent fit and they didn’t smell when I took them of. I searched the web to find a supplier of army style and found Oneoutdoors so I ordered some from them. Great service and the socks were excellent – even after wearing the same pair for more than a day they didn’t smell. They’ve been machine washed quite a few times now but still fit perfectly and look like they will last a long time. I’m so pleased with them that I’ve just ordered 5 more pairs [from the sister site, buyXsocks.com]
Anonymous on the Run Performance Socks
have loads of pairs of these socks and have run a few marathons in the last year or so and have never had any blisters, cuts or sores so they just cant be beat.
John Mc Elhinney on the Airforce 1 Socks
Slowly but surely Airforce 1 X-Socks are supplanting every other sock I have, and with very good reason: a very, cool, comfortable and light sock, yet with protection and support in all the right places, with the result that my feet never feel like they’ve done a day’s work!
Keith Ellis on the Sky Run Socks
Well, I ran my first Half Marathon on the 19th October 2008. I passed my PB of 2.03 minutes with a 1.52. I was of course running in Sky Run Socks. I have just discovered this product being new to running, well one year and god knows how many cotton sports sock later, and look forward to new challenges and finding which X-Socks help the best. I am quite sure Sky Run Socks helped me get through by not having to think about my feet. Well done.
Rachel Prince on the Lady Speed One Socks
Tried a couple of other brands but after reading rave reviews on the RW forum I tried these. They got me round the Great North Run – not a blister in sight! Marvellous!
I just want to say well done to everyone that made an entry, well done to the runners up and well done to Ed.
