We’ll start with the long socks…

No one wants that dreaded feeling of your sock slipping down mid round. The ProDry Roll Tab feature anatomically shaped foot-beds to keep your sock in place throughout your round. Science!
They also come in women’s. These are my go-to socks, especially if I’m wearing shorts. They are extremely comfy thanks to inbuilt cushioning.

Best golf socks: Kymira
The Infrared have quickly become one of my favourite pairs of socks. They feature infrared technology – that’s where the name comes from – which is proven to increase bloodflow enhancing performance and accelerating recovery.
