Always good to see someone bring data to the table on this.

From having tested socks on many people it's still a hit or miss thing. We've seen the same pair of socks produce superior & inferior results on two different subjects. (yes they were sock sharing haha!)

I wish I could find the pair that were faster on me, well calf sleeves, not socks actually. But so far bare legs for the fastest bike split. YMMV..actually it probably will vary
