Aero Socks turn airflow into free speed
The Aero Socks pair a smooth, laminar-flow front panel with three rows of knit turbulators positioned just ahead of the flow separation zone, generating small vortices that keep air attached further around the leg. That construction delivers 4 to 8 watts of drag reduction at 30 to 45kph, matching the performance of taller ribbed lycra cuff socks without the compression-sock feel underfoot. The 19.5cm cuff sits at the UCI's height limit for most riders, so the aero gain holds up in sanctioned racing.
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I ran these back-to-back with a ribbed compression sock on the same course and couldn't tell the difference in speed, but my foot never felt squeezed the way it does in a true compression knit. That's the tradeoff these actually solve."
