Blogged

X-Socks and X-Bionic UnderGear got well covered by the blogosphere even before the X-Bionic Blog existed. Here’s a quick round-up of what people had to say:

“Time to get serious about socks”

March 23rd, 2006

Journal Inqiurer’s Chris Dehnel reviewed X-Socks. His verdict:

During the long, slow ride up the main chairlift, my feet stayed warm. Even after an aggressive run, when your feet tend to cool off on the ride back up the mountain, they were warm. They were very comfortable, even on the hardest of turns.

Journal Inquirer

There will also be a feature of him about X-Socks in the fall issue of Snow East Magazine.

iF design award ceremony

March 10th, 2006

As a four times iF product design award winner 2006 we were invited to join the iF design award ceremony in Hannover, Germany, yesterday.

The ceremony was very impressing - amazing designs from the award winners in all the categories. Afterwards, the official showroom of the iF awards was opened.

Of course, I took some photos of the ceremony and the showroom:

“…simply the best base layer…”

March 8th, 2006

SheCycles.com tests X-Bionic UnderGear - this is what they say:

We tested the X-Undergear in a variety of conditions from serious sub-zero temps to warmer winter days when sweating was more of an issue than getting cold. Which ever you choose to ride in the X-Underwear, it performed suberbly, infact we’d be happy to standby our claim that it is simply the best base layer we’ve ever had the pleasure of wearing.

Super technical with an amazing fit the X-UnderGear shirt opens up new horizons for base layers

“Perhaps the Best Athletic Socks Ever Made”

March 7th, 2006

Thanks for the compliment!

X-Socks were reviewed in the Getoutdoors.com Outdoor Blog and they come away very well. This is what they have to say:

…they are extremely supportive and comfortable

…, I would say these socks are incredible and are by far the best socks I’ve ever worn for sports.

I can’t help but think, over time and washings, these nifty little features will slowly age away, don’t know…

GetOutdoors.com

I can assure you, the features won’t age away. The SilverNodor yarn does not lose its effect over time, nor does any other feature. Also, we give a full two year guarantee.

P.S.: X-Socks are developed in Switzerland.
