Socrates Socks
Some might call Socrates Socks ($30) over-engineered, but we call them brilliant. Seeking to build a pair of socks that wouldn't droop, get a hole, or simply wear out on the bottom, the team behind Socrates built them out of Lycra freshFx fabric with anti-droop technology, then added carbon threading on the heel and toe, military-spec elastic at the top, and a Kevlar-Carbon Matrix at the end. All of which combines to make them, light, comfortable, and unbelievably durable.
