    VIM & VIGR: Great Socks to Combat Cankles

    At one point or another we have all faced the dreaded “cankle” after long hours traveling without moving much. This unfortunate feeling and looking lower leg swelling is due to the restriction of blood circulation in the legs and feet. VIM & VIGR, a line of high-quality compression socks for men and women, works to combat cankles and the detriments of poor blood circulation that is common during travel.

    As a result of the inactivity during travel, position of legs while seated, low pressure, dehydration, and low humidity, many people feel that their legs are heavy, swollen, achy, and in risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a condition where blood clots form in the veins.

    By utilizing VIM & VIGR’s advanced Gradient Pressure™ knitting technology, these innovative compression socks improve circulation and alleviate aching, prevent and reduce spider and varicose veins, and leg swelling. These fashionable socks engineered to energize your legs every step of the way are available in a variety of designs and fabric choices. They are a must-have travel item which allows the blood in your feet to gently get re-circulated back up your legs towards your heart to then be re-oxygenated.

     

    My friend Johann did the Brooklyn 1/2 and wore the socks while running/training! He gave them 5 stars!

    Compression socks are proven to provide relief and increase comfort throughout the day – espcecially during long travel periods. VIM & VIGR has recently been featured in The New York Times, Redbook, Triathlete, and Pregnancy & Newborn.

    Since he is the person I know most passionate about socks with great design and function, I trust his review 🙂

    Dancing on my @Bombas Socks

    There are a few things I miss in the summer – Like sweatshirts, comfy socks and scarves!  I love being cozy and comfortable and with summer half over – I am actually looking forward to boot season! Call me crazy!  I recently came across the best socks ever. Bombas.

    Bombas!

    The best engineered socks ever with a charity aspect too! – Get a Pair, Donate a Pair!

    The Sock-Tech:

    • Blister Tab – A tiny ankle cushion to prevent painful rubbing and chafing
    • Invisitoe – A hand linked toe seam to eliminate that annoying bump on the toes
    • HoneyComb Support System – Extra support in the arch where you need it most
    • Performance Footbed – Reinforced for comfort, not overwhelmingly thick
    • Y-Stitched Heel – The Y shape creates a natural cup around your heel
    • Long Staple Pima Cotton – Warm in the winter, cool in the summer, always soft
    • Better World – One Pair Purchased = One Pair Donated

    20140611_154626

    It is time to upgrade your sock closet!  They come in Mens, Womens and Kids. They have the perfect amount to stretch, a little cushion for the heel on the ankle ones and a bit of tension right around the arch of your foot. So awesome for all day wear and all the fun colors!

    The word Bombas is derived from the Latin word for bumblebee.
    Bees work together to make the hive a better place. We like that.
    When we say Bee Better, we mean it as a mantra, a way of approaching every day.
    It’s stitched into the inside of every pair of Bombas for a reason.
    It’s a reminder to push yourself harder to be better at your athletic pursuits.
    A reminder that these socks are engineered and designed with thought to bee better.
    A reminder that you helped someone in need with your purchase.
    And a reminder that we’re all connected and little improvements can
    add up to make a big difference.

    Funny Socks Monthly @FootCardigan

    Funny socks always tell you a lot about someone. When I was in Detroit for the Ford Trend Conference, the first thing I noticed about Seth Godin was that he was wearing really unique sock that didn’t match. What a fun way of having a little giggle to yourself stylishly all day.

    My friend’s wedding pics from Brooklyn also featured awesome socks on the groom.

    Socks lock in moisturizer for smooth feet, but don’t just rock any sock. Foot Cardigan is a silly sock-subscription that turns your feet into fashionistas, and every month you’ll have a new pair in your collection.

    When I went to Hong Kong, I got these clear rain boots so now I must have more fun socks to wear with them!  They come in a range of sizes, colors and designs. The fun part is you never know what you are going to get each month.  See all the fun #sockstgram pics: http://footcardigan.com/sockstagram
