About: I joined the gang at Gear Patrol because I believe that as men we often settle for less than the very best lifestyle we can attain. It’s been ingrained into our psyches to forgo certain products, services or lifestyles because they don’t fall within some antiquated male paradigm. Bunk.
It’s time as men to stand up and redefine what’s rightfully ours. Much of what I have learned to this end has come through advice from guys who had the experiences and knowledge I was seeking. My only regret was not learning it sooner. Now I feel it’s my obligation to pass along what I know. I’m not saying I have all the answers but I’m happy to share what I’ve learned so far.
On a more personal level, I live an active lifestyle and focus on my health and wellness as a means to sustain the frenetic pace. I also suffer from a case of golf-itis and spend a lot of my free time perusing that passion… ok, obsession. I aim to incorporate relevant fitness and golf content into Gear Patrol’s expanding coverage of all things male. Like the rest of the crew I can’t stand over-hyped, under-performing products. None of that crap will be perpetuated here.See Authors Posts (93) on Fri, Dec 12, 2008 | Email To A Friend

Better Performance, One Foot at a Time
Athletic socks are the red-headed stepchildren of the fitness apparel world. It’s a shame, really. I’ve seen it countless times; guys will drop bundles on moisture-wicking clothing and expensive sneakers, then they proceed to slip on a pair of plain cotton socks.
Blah. Here’s a news flash men: your feet are vital to your workout. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that Gear Patrol has found socks specifically engineered, not only for high performance, but also for the respective feet they go on. The Edge by Power Sox comes equipped with Left/Right APF Technology, ventilation panels, and a moisture control technology call Sensura. Hmm, sounds a little like a high performance car.
The Edge Power Soxs are specifically engineered to match the specific contours of each foot. Selective cushioning allows for padding to be strategically placed only in key areas, providing essential shock absorption. Better fitting socks can cut down on blisters and other irritations caused when your foot slides around within your sneaker. If you’re going to invest in athletic attire, work from the inside out. After all, socks come in direct contact with your skin, and a cool, dry foot is a happy foot.
Cost: $9
