Rockay Razer Trail Running Socks | Review

Take a step into the next generation of sockwear with the high-tech Razer from Rockay

Why We Chose The Rockay Razer Trail Running Sock: A future-facing, extremely comfortable, performance-first sock that’s made from 100% recycled materials

Once upon a time, a sock was just a sock. Nowadays though, for the active outdoor enthusiast, there’s more than enough evidence to support a mad-sounding ‘the socks are evolving’ theory.

Take the Razer trail running sock from Rockay, for example. On first inspection, it’s just a funky-looking, colourful, sock. Dig a little deeper, however, and what you’re actually left with is the latest stage of the humble sock’s great, and unrelenting, march into the future.

This is the sock that other socks wish they could be.

Who Is The Rockay Razer Trail Running Sock For?

If you’re a trail runner who, like an F1 driver in a finely tuned F1 car, wants to maximise your potential in pursuit of those challenging FKTs then look no further than the Rockay Razer. This is a performance-first number for people who can’t afford to be held back by annoying inconveniences like blisters and overheated, uncomfortably sweaty, feet.

With their anti-odour coating as well, these socks are also ideal for thru-hikers doing long multi-day walks. No need to pack the entirety of your entire sock drawer with these on your feet.

Materials

One of the coolest things about the Rockay Razer is that it’s made from 100% recycled materials. For those keeping score, the sock consists of 51% Econyl Regenerated Nylon, 45% Recycled Polyamide, and 4% Recycled Elastane.

Features

Back in the day, you’d be hard pushed to write more than 10 words about the features of a sock. As Bob Dylan once said, “the times they are a-changin’.”

Everything about the Razer has been implemented with optimised comfort in mind. Take the seamless toes and performance cushioning, for example. We’d stop just short of saying that the Razer is so cushioned underfoot that you won’t even need shoes when wearing them. They do, however, provide your feet with some superb padding in the places where you need it the most.

To enhance comfort, and minimise sweat, the Razer has ‘Breathable Mesh Zones.’ These help to keep the air flowing, and stop your feet getting overly stuffy and hot. The comfort of the Razer is enhanced further by the product’s ‘Arch Support’.

We’ve already touched upon the ‘Anti-Odour Coating’ and ‘Anti-Blister Construction’ above, but it’s worth raising again here as these really are two of the sock’s standout features. After all, nobody likes a blister and nobody likes smelly feet.

The Razer also comes with the Rockay Lifetime Guarantee.

Conclusion

£16.64, the price you’ll pay in the UK for one pair of the Razer sock, might seem a bit on the high side but when you consider the heightened levels of comfort, the ‘Anti-Odor’ reusability, and the various other technical features it’ll bring to your running, it could be a price worth paying. Whether you want to pay around £160 for 12 pairs though, the official Rockay price for this quantity at the time of writing, is a decision we’ll leave entirely in your hands.
