Initial use:
was still hesitant because I hate when socks stay at the ankle,
but I forced myself to put them on. They're more like an injury bandage, almost.
They do grip the area between the toes and the heel like a neoprene bandage
just not quite that firmly. They are also very thick. My 3G Tour Ultras are comfortable
when I put on thick winter socks and slightly looser when I put on light summer socks.
I could barely get them on. Once on, for the 4 games I bowled, I never gave them a 2nd
thought, not even about my ankles not being covered. I was surprised.
After bowling, my feet felt slightly better than normally they do after 4 games,
about 50 minutes of bowling.
So, if they have that effect, I'd say they were worth it.
My only qualm: instructions say to wash after EVERY use.
Next use:
"Tried" to use them tonight, first night of league.
Put them on and they felt cramped, in a major way.
It rained all day and was so muggy, my eyeglasses fogged up
when I stepped from the car. REALLY, really humid.
By the end of the first game, I gave up on them. My feet felt like they were in a
vise, in a torture device. May never use them again, but will try again, in any case.
Seems like, as much room as my bowling shoes, 3G's Tour Ultra, the most expensive set,
have, there isn't enough room for these socks. As I had said, there's plenty of room for my densest winter socks.
Shame.
