Hello BC Gurus! Any takes on socks while playing badminton? Tried playing wihout socks once and my feet hurts afterwards (forgot to bring my socks!) any nice brand of socks out there which is badminton specific? By the way, I use Nike Elite basketball socks coz I find them quite comfy and has very good shock absorbent qualities. Best Regards!
Only one choice for me - http://www.badmintoncentral.com/for.../rkep-ex3-triple-density-socks-review.116937/
+1 for RKEP, been using them for 2 or 3 years, great socks. Wear them casually everyday as well. Not exactly super cheap these days though. Yonex are nice too, as i remember, they are a bit thicker, so that's up to person's preference.
+1 for RKEP EX3. Best socks on the planet! Just make sure to wash them at least twice before wearing them. They tend to be a bit slippery when they are brand new.
They have a number of models. I believe i tried the Yonex 1855. They are quite thick and quite long as well.
I guess you have to order them from Eric just like the rest of us. Drop an e-mail to Eric at rkeptrading@gmail.com and you will have an answer normally within minutes. First you can have a look at http://www.ebay.de/itm/141022504597...eName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 to see which different version of the socks there are an which one you would like to order. EDIT: Darn it. Lost to Charlie by 3 minutes!
7.30am in the office here. Just finished scanning the e-mail inbox, first coffee is ready: Perfect time for BC!
You get used to it. Wife and the little one are still asleep, drinking coffee alone sucks - so better have an earlier start before the true office-madness begins.
