SmartWool RBX Ultra Light Socks

Say good-bye to shrink, and say hello to dry. SmartWool's RBX Ultra Light Socks use wool, nylon and elastic to give the wearer a sock that won't shrink, itch or stink.

You don't need fabric softeners because SmartWool is already super soft and will stay that way. The natural crimp in the fibers will keep these socks fitting tight ride after ride. The crimp traps air pockets, keeping your skin at a neutral temperature whether you are descending in North Dakota in February or spinning across Arizona in July. SmartWool also uses a flat knit toe seam to eliminate the "Is there a tequilla worm in my shoe?" feeling from those other socks that have the fat seam right across your five little piggies.

This light, non-cushioned sock wicks moisture away from the skin to help reduce bacteria, and the SmartWool made from New Zealand sheep's wool produces a sock that doesn't irritate your skin. The SmartTechnology behind the SmartWool starts in the fiber of the sock. Solid synthetic fibers can wick but may get clogged with sweat in between fibers, leaving a rider with a sweaty sock. SmartTechnology allows for normal wicking but eliminates clogging because natural wool fibers are porous and can absorb moisture, therefore improving overall evaporation.

The RBX family of socks also include in an Ultra Cushion, Racer, Micro Mini and 3/4 versions. RBX Ultra Light Socks come in four color choices and tout a money-back guarantee if they don't outperform all other socks.--Justin Kosman
