its a trade off of reliability and power.

The orange tops have alot of sock power but they fall apart when you use them. Cheap route. You get your "BANG for the BUCK".

Blue tops "most popular" have supporting mods built in to handle modest shock but super expensive.

Grey tops are plain sock (read: stock) no fun what so ever but they last.

But one thing that many people don't understand is your buying socks that are around 12 years old and want to make them output 250%.

We should push the "Sock RB" thing. It could be the next "race bread"

Hmm...

The oranges are tempting, but blue goes with my eyes.. I mean. uhm.. I'll go blue! They may cost a little extra, but, I'd do _anything_ for my feet!

This thread is like taking a hot chick to a party and her dancing with everyone else while you chill at the keg because you have no game.

Your question has been asked and answered many times before and a quick search zerosearch would get you the info you are looking for.

Now if you don't mind we are going to take your thread upstairs and run a train on it.

be proud, I think you may have inadvertantly created an inside joke that most people won't get but all of us will. seriously though you could easily spend the whole night surfing what the search will pop up, use it, you will like it a lot.

to the original poster... just laugh at the creation of an inside joke. Nothing here is poking fun at you or anyone else but more so at the common misconception.

Now before you guys kill the thread again... on with the show, lol.

Well, the problem that many people believe the socks have is that too much weight to the sock in the front (ROFL you know where this is going). Due to the heavier material used for the bottom end as well, people think that it will throw off your equilibrium.

So lets put it like this. Just because you have a shirt that looks like a tuxedo, doesn't mean you can pull it off at the wedding.

Its how you set up your suspenders.
