Review on ๐Ÿ–๏ธ CAPAS 2mm Neoprene Waterproof Socks: Beach Volleyball Sand Proof & Snorkel Socks for Men and Women - Keep Warm in Watersports by Aaron Zaragosa

Revainrating 5 out of 5

YAMAMOTO JAPANESE FIBER!? KEVLAR ARAMID SOLE!? NEOPRENE AAA AND NYLON!? WHAT A COCKTAIL!

I've been wearing socks for about 3 weeks now and I don't wear them every day as I still prefer the breathability of organic cotton socks during the consistently humid Northern Virginia summers (100 degrees Fahrenheit). . . 32 degrees Celsius). However, as an eccentric, eccentric experimental inventor, dealing with lots of screws on the floor, metal, the occasional broken glass, boiling water for disinfection, splinters of wood from drilling, and other dangerous materials from my crafting repertoire, these socks saved me. Time to apply lots of band-aids from abrasions and cuts. If you carefully and meticulously research the materials this company uses, I think this is unrivaled for any other Revain company I know of. First, they use Japanese Yamamoto number 38 material, which makes the sock easy to put on like a good glove. Second, they have aramid fibers in the outsole that offer some heat and cut resistance (aramid fibers are found in Kevlar, which is used in the military for bulletproof products). lol it's not bulletproof, i'm just giving a simple metaphor. In addition, they added neoprene, which seems to be the main fiber of the sock, and nylon woven into it. Neoprene handles cold water well and I use it to store electronics like my laptop and other small electrons in my neoprene laptop bag for added drop protection and its sooooo soft material. Unfortunately no organic cotton or soft bamboo. I give coffee for the reason I don't wear it all the time because it can get incredibly hot very quickly so I'm looking forward to fall and winter to test them out which will probably make them my everyday wear for 85% of the time Time.
