Since I got the Oxtar Matrix boots, I needed full calve socks. I went by Wally World and picked up a pack of FTL and Hanes to compare them. The thickness is about the same... material is about the same.

The one thing I CAN'T stand is socks rolling down on me... laid a bike down once trying to pull a sock up at a light... :rolleyes: The Hanes stay up... ALL DAY LONG! The FTL suck! :(

If you guys know of a better sock, let me know... I like good socks!!!! ;)

How do you like the Oxtar boot - I'm looking into getting a new pair of waterproof boots (currently have Joe Rockets) and Oxtar's are one of the brands I'm looking at

Really like them now... they are starting to give at the ankle so shifting isn't a clueless act anymore ;) I haven't worn full calve boots on the ST before now... had Icon Super Duty's. My old... old... biker boots were ok on the cruiser since I had forward controls but I couldn't wear them on the ST with the heals on them.

Worth the $$$! Real comfy... I wear them all day at work. Had a couple of guys ask me where I got them... had to break their heart telling them that they were cycle boots. :D

You won't be disappointed... :)

My wife seconds the Cool Max socks. She got hers at Tractor Supply Company and we saw short Cool Max socks at Academy. She is going on a quest to find some for me.
