Socks? Yes, socks. Few things are more underrated than wearing the right socks. If they make you too hot or too cold they can ruin your day. I also hate it when socks are so tight they stop your circulation, and don’t get me started on socks that only last a couple of wears and end up having holes in the heel and toe. In fact as I am writing this I realise just how hard it is to find a good pair of socks.

So, time to review Workforce socks. Are they any good?

They look good so straight away they get points for design. They also have an ‘R’ and an ‘L’ so you know that you are putting them on the right foot. They have padding on the heel and the ball of the feet. You would be surprised just how much of a difference this makes. They also have some padding on other areas.

The toes are also reinforced. Workforce call themselves the most comfortable socks on the market. A big claim.

I wear the workforce socks for a few days (not in a row. I washed them!) I have had sore feet from running all around London going to different events and stuff. It is surprising just how much abuse your feet take.

The socks really are comfortable. So much so that I don’t think I can go back to normal socks again. I am definitely going to buy these socks for my family and friends. They are just so much more superior than normal socks. They are comfortable, tough and just so much kinder to your feet. I really like them. Consider me converted.

 Workforce also say:

 

 Technical features to be found in the Workforce range include knitted arch support engineered for a precise fit and hold, terry cushion panels to provide excellent comfort from shock absorption. Specially constructed ventilation panels aid moisture management, specially treated yarns and bamboo fibres provide natural antibacterial protection.  Many styles include heavy gauge ribbing and fully cushioned soles for total comfort and heel and toe areas are enhanced with polypropylene for maximum durability.

Celebrity builder Tommy Walsh is impressed with the performance of his Workforce socks and adamant that they have improved his life at work:

“Workforce are the hardest wearing socks I’ve ever worn and also the most comfortable. They provide me with the comfort and protection I need when I’m working hard or when I’m out and about. They’re warm, but never get too hot; they’re padded, extra strong and fit comfortably with my working boots and shoes. I don’t know how they’ve done it, but Workforce have a range of socks ideal for workwear purposes”
