Sock of the week – Awesome Socks

Socks to Say I Love You!

February 12, 2017February 25, 2017chad

With Valentine’s day coming up, this weeks/months pair or focus is socks that say “I Love You!”
These awesome socks are for that special someone who you want to show a little extra love by putting some socks on their feet. Reminding them every time they look down that their special someone got them a little something special! So if you have a special someone who likes to add some color to their outfit, I recommend you read on for some awesome socks. Majority of them are via Amazon Prime, so you can order now and still get them in time for V-Day, or just get them in two days for whenever you need them! A few of these socks are uni-sex while other are Men/Women’s only, but honestly you can be the judge of that.

I prefer Sheec dress socks just because they aren’t so upfront but have a nice little simplicity to them that still adds a little flair. Let me know what you think of these Valentine’s Day socks!

Sock Update – Blue Q socks

February 2, 2017February 2, 2017chad

So, with no updating quite as often as weekly, we are falling back to Sock Updates or Socks of the month!! This time around we are going to go a little edgy with a new sock I found, Blue Q. They have quite a selection of awesome socks, mostly witty or short phrase dress socks or crew socks for men and women. Some are a little R-rated, eg – “It’s a beautiful day, don’t F it up!”.

There are quite a few more there too, so take a look at the men’s and women’s novelty crew socks that they offer! Blue Q has an offer that includes a sock ring that keeps your socks together!! I normally fold my socks over each other, pulling the opening down so that they stay together, but the sock ring looks pretty sweet.

It seems most of Blue Q’s Novelty socks are right 6.99 to 12.99, a few pairs might be a little higher, with some including the sock ring! Most of their socks are on Amazon Prime too! Blue Q has a few other items they sell too, ranging from messenger bags to Pee wipes to some crazy coin purses.

If you find Blue Q’s items interesting, let me know in the comments below! If you think it’s a little too crude, say so too!

But back to these awesome dress/crew socks! They are available in a few different styles, and I chose the one I like the most. Venture/Vybe has a few different sock options ranging from $21.99 up to $29.99, with a variety of different styles.

Sock of the Week – Sock Habit

May 12, 2016February 12, 2017chad

The sock of the week this week is a pair of socks from Sock Habit. The pair I chose is only one of a few different pairs they have that look pretty awesome. Who doesn’t love a pair of shamrock socks? These are paired up with a nice looking and matching color stripe sock. I like that Sock Habit adds in a few photos of how the look when worn; Having the socks in an outfit helps show their true color. This pair has actually been discontinued by Sock Habit, but they still have some awesome pairs! Check out the updated Striped/Argyle/Polka dot set that are one of my favorite color wise that Sock Habit offers.

Sock of the Week – Washington Capitals Socks

April 26, 2016February 12, 2017chad

The Washington Capitals are in the playoffs for the 2016 NHL race to the Stanley Cup. I’m a pretty big Caps fan being from Maryland and I have a jersey and a hat, so why not get a pair of socks to got with it too? In my mind, there are only two socks that you could get that are true Capitals socks, the ones you see here and then these Reebok ones. I think I like the ones picture here better, but apparently they are on the thicker side for socks, more like winter socks that you would wear with boots, or tube socks. The Reebok Washington Capitals socks look a little nicer and seem to be true crew socks that you could wear to work or the Caps game.

Either choice is a pretty good one though! Rock the red! Go caps! Let me know what you guys think, or if you have a better pair of Caps socks I would love to know!

Sock Of the Week – Star Wars Dress socks

April 12, 2016chad

<br />

This week’s sock of the week is a new Star Wars sock from Cufflinks.com. They sell a few different ones on Amazon.com and even have them via Amazon Prime!. If you don’t know what Amazon Prime is, for 99 bucks a year, that’s only $8.25 a month, you get free 2 day shipping on Prime products from amazon, and there are millions of them!! It’s a really great deal.

Well these socks are available via Prime, meaning you can get them in two days! They are some of the more subdued Star Wars dress socks I’ve found. They get the point across, that you like Star Wars, but yet aren’t over the top. My favorite are probably the X-wing fighter ones. At first someone might just think it’s a pattern, but the true Star Wars fan’s out there will know!!

They also have listed a yoda pair of socks, Darth Vader dress socks, The Empire dress socks, and Death Star socks! Decide for yourself which one you like the most. Prices range form 19.95 to 24.95, so not the cheapest socks out there but still within range for a select audience of Star War enthusiasts who want to dress up their socks and show off their fandom.

Sock of the Week – Deadpool

February 24, 2016February 12, 2017chad

The pool!!! First, if you haven’t seen the Deadpool movie, go see it! One of the better action hero movies I think, but that is because I’m also a big fan of comedy. These socks have just the right amount of Deadpool, that red so the enemy can’t see ya bleed! These socks seem comfy enough where you could wear them during sports or other activities. These socks are 9.95 (2/11/2017) plus free shipping with Amazon Prime! This seller has quite a few different super hero socks, although Deadpool says he isn’t a super hero, I guess we’ll let that slide since there is free shipping!.

I love me some super hero socks, and these Deadpool ones are close enough. They have a 4.5/5 stars review and look pretty sweet! Let me know what you think!

Sock of the week – Funky Socks

February 9, 2016February 12, 2017chad

I found these socks through one of my random searches and let me tell you, this seller on Amazon has a TON of great socks! I could hardly decide which ones to feature for this weeks Sock of the Week. The ones I chose are a pretty awesome 6 pack for only 20.99 (2/11/2017), that’s only 3.50 per pair of socks! That’s a pretty good deal!

These socks are also on Amazon Prime, and have 4.5 stars on amazon, so they seem to be pretty good. I like the purple/blue as the other set, black/brown/navy, are a little meh. The blend in these are definitely meant for dress than play, 97% and 3% spandex, and so won’t be too breathable.

This seller also has a few other socks for right around the same price point, with two pair for 9.99 (2/11/2017) also on Prime. They have over 40 different pairs to choose from and most of them are pretty awesome!

I’ll be picking these up in a month or two when I need a few new pairs. If you have them, let me know what you think!

Sock of the Week – Maryland Socks

February 6, 2016February 12, 2017chad

Being from the state of Maryland and having lived here all my life, I’m pretty fond of our flag. I find that most people from Maryland are a big fan of the flag, with it’s white crosses and Calvert family black and gold pattern. I stumbled across these MD socks and thought they liked pretty awesome so wanted to make sure I posted them for not just everyone else, but so I remember to get a pair too!

Love the look of these socks, especially the grey ones. Although the flag isn’t quite as large as on the white socks, it still stands out and looks better over all I think. The white look good too, but I guess I just like the grey a little more, but then again the gold look pretty spiffy too. I really couldn’t decide which ones I like the most, so all of them are below…

Sock of the Week – Pair of Thieves Dress Socks

January 19, 2016January 19, 2016chad

First things first, let me tell you that these socks are pretty awesome! See my review of them here, I actually have this exact pair along with one of their others that they sell. They are probably my favorite pair of socks I own, and that is saying alot!

So this weeks sock of the week is a pair from Pair of Thieves, that they call the “spotted mind”. I don’t know about the name, but the socks are pretty comfy and well made. They are 62% combed cotton, 26% polyestor, 6% nylon, 4% natural latex rubber and 2% spandex, and that makes for a pretty snug and comfy fit. You can find them at www.target.com and on the makers site, Pair of Thieves. They sometimes go on sale at Target and you can grab them for pretty cheap which is what I recommend! If you are curious about the socks checkout my < href="http://awesome-socks.com/?p=249&preview=true">full review and if you own a pair, let me know what you think!
