Dissent Labs GFX Semenuk Crew socks £24.99

BC-based Dissent Labs provide compression wear to the crème de la crème of Canadian mountain biking. Top of that list is Brandon Semenuk, and these are his signature socks, which have extra-thick padding for protection and comfort. The snug fit supports feet well, they haven’t stretched even after multiple washes and the compression seems to improve blood flow too, keeping toes warm on colder days. Our only complaint is that we’d prefer them to be a little longer in the leg. Ed www.shore-lines.co.uk
