When I
opened the packaging, I could tell from the start that these socks were very
well put together. Swiftwick prides
itself on using the best technology to make the best socks in the industry. They utilize a 200 needle knitting process,
which is the highest thread count in the sock business, resulting in a sock
that has a tighter knit. This prevents
dirt and debris from coming through your socks, causing irritation. The socks fit so well that it felt like they
were a part of my foot. There is no
bunching or movement of the socks, even when running on trails where your feet
slide around a little.

I received
the Aspire Zero in black, which is a light weight, thin sock that stops below
the ankle. It uses managed compression to
support all three arches (I only thought we had one arch, who knew) and their Linked-Toe
design to eliminate bunching, which can cause hot spots and blisters. They wick moisture better than any sock I
have tried and even after months of testing, they look just as good as the day
I first put them on.
I also
received the Aspire Four in Razzle Red. The
Four stands for four inches of ankle support, where the Zero has no ankle
support. The Aspire Four utilizes
Swiftwick’s double cuff rises, which prevent the sock from slipping down, ever. It also has all of the same features as the
Aspire Zero.
Very comfortable
Hot spot and blister free
Extremely durable
Made in the USA
Best guarantee in the business
Cons:
I only have 2 pairs.
They start at $12.99, so they are a little pricey.
Do Swiftwick socks live up to their claims of being the best
socks I will ever wear? Much to my surprise,
they do. I love these socks! While they might be a little pricey, they are
extremely durable and will last for quite a while (longer than cheaper socks). They are made in the USA and use the best
materials and technologies available to create a superior product. I have no problem spending a few extra
dollars to get such a great product. I
will definitely be buying me a few more pairs to add to my collection.
Give them a try and let me know what you think. What do you have to lose? If you don’t like them, Swiftwick will buy
you a pair of your favorite socks as a replacement. You can buy them starting at $12.99 for the Aspire Zero and $16.99 for the Aspire Four.
They also have various other sizes and several colors to choose
from. Go to Swiftwick or Amazon to get
yours today.
