Ready to pedal like the wind? Say hello to the Aero Socks - Tall by Silca. These aren't just your average cycling socks. Born in Italy and crafted by a team globally recognized for weaving the world's most exquisite socks with the most advanced knitting machines, these socks are designed to not just be aerodynamic, but also to excel at being socks. The result? A sock that stays up with a unique blend of smooth and rough textures, engineered to direct the air flow around your lower leg efficiently.
That's just the beginning. We took the feedback from cycling enthusiasts and decided to push the envelope even more. We extended the cuff to a UCI-approved 19.5cm to maximize the aerodynamic advantages for most riders out there.
Wondering how the magic happens? Our innovative knitting machines create a smooth frontal surface where the air flow is laminar. We've incorporated three rows of turbulators just before the flow separation zone, which promote flow attachment further around the leg, minimizing drag and saving you between 4-8 watts (when cycling at 30-45kph). When put to the test, our socks perform on par with ribbed lycra socks of the same height.
But can they ensure comfort? Of course! Silca Aero Socks are woven from Q-Skin, a fabric infused with silver ions. This makes them anti-bacterial, odor-resistant, and supremely soft. Moreover, they are excellent at controlling moisture. These socks are not just fast, but they'll be the most comfortable socks you've ever worn. They're perfect for the all-American athletes who refuse to compromise on performance and comfort.
Please note: For hygiene reasons, we do not accept returns on socks that have been tried on. Please refer to our sizing guide to ensure the optimal fit.
