The secret in Thorlos performance socks is the use of acrylic cushion fabrics. They claim that this type of material wicks away moisture and that they stay cushioned for longer periods of time. Regular socks have no cushioning set up and if they have, they mostly use fat pads. These eventually break down which leaves your foot unprotected. If you want to have a better experience while playing basketball or any sport that requires shoes, make sure your socks are appropriately cushioned. Most people think that as long as they have good shoes they're okay with whatever socks they use. You actually have to use specific types of socks for different types of activities. Protecting your feet is key and you really need to consider using good socks. I would suggest socks from brands such as Nike, Adidas and New Balance. They offer a wide range of options and materials to suit your needs.

So if you want to feel what the Mamba feels, try Thorlos, this is what he's using in NBA games. They're available in Planet Sports so check out one of their branches today!
