After being introduced first hand to the Swiftwick brand by a THP event this year, I was excited at the opportunity to review and experience more of their offerings. In hand photos will include products from their Pursuit, Aspire, and Vibe lines, which on the surface appear to be quite unique to one another.
When I say surface, I mean colours, textures, patterns, and cuff height. Simply opening the package introduces me to a wealth of information about how each are unique, and I am going to run through them with a lot of photos in this preview because I believe it adds a great deal of value to what Swiftwick are accomplishing in what they are defining as "The Best Sock You Will Ever Wear."
Normally I would offer a small profile of the company and what they are doing, however they have a great "Why Swiftwick" page that provides an in depth look at what they are doing, why they are doing it, and even goes into detail about core values, compression, culture, and etc. It's worth a read for the inside look at the company: http://www.swiftwick.com/why-swiftwick.htm
To the Socks:
Pursuit: Socks born from the same technology and spirit of our synthetic lines with two key differences: The PURSUIT(TM) line comes fused with the natural and thermal properties of super fine, 36 micron Merino Wool sourced from farmers right here in America AND is the only 200-needle compression wool sock on the market. In short, these socks are built of the finest, by the finest. Get yours today - your feet deserve it.
Aspire: The ASPIRE™ Line is thin and light for serious runners, cyclists and athletes of any sport. We eliminated the toe seam using linked-toe technology, which means no bunching in the toe box.
Vibe: Unique in the Swiftwick family, the VIBE line is a little more plush, and a lot more colorful. Using a half height terry loop throughout the footbed, the VIBE offers a highly consistent, thicker feeling with linked toe construction and slightly less compression. To carry the color, it’s flat knit, super thin upper is smooth and snug.
