“Hammers” Socks
Eights pro socks
The design features custom padding in areas of the sock, which have been made bespoke just for us at eights.
Paul designed how the padding is assembled in critical areas to add comfort and functionality that regular sports socks don’t offer.
The shin- this area has a small pad of woven padding exactly where your buckle goes across your shin area to give extra comfort, whether you crank down hard and wear the boot tight or ride loose so it stops the slapping feeling of the tongue hitting your shin.
The ankle and heel cup- the ankle area has extra padding, which cups the heel and Achilles and wraps forwards to cover the inner and outer ankle bone to help prevent sore and rubbed ankle bones and fatigued heels.
The footbed and arch- there is a good amount of padding, which runs the entire length of the sole with small gaps between to help with breathability and a tighter elastic arch to keep your foot feeling supported and snug.
Toes - the toe padding runs under the toes and ball of your foot and ends in a V shape across the top of your toes to thin the sock out where your toes bend and not use too much space in your boot and liner, which can cause discomfort and pressure
