PRODUCT REVIEW: POWERSOX + GIVEAWAY!

I am the worst at buying socks. I usually steal them from my mom’s drawer when I go home… or I tell her that my socks are holey and she gives me hers. (Yes, I’m 27… must be a Millennial thing?) That’s what Moms are for, right?!
Anyways, when the folks at PowerSox asked me if I wanted to try out some of their socks, I was like YES PLEASE. I only have a few pairs of socks that are meant for running and haven’t done much research in this arena.
They sent me their Women’s PowerSox Gold Toe Power-Lites to try out.
I must admit I was like, well how different can socks be? Isn’t a sock a sock? But not really. These socks are so comfortable and they have extra cushion! But the extra cushion isn’t to the point where it keeps your feet too warm and makes them sweat when you run. So they have the perfect balance.
I like that they are affordable, too. You can get a pack of 3 for around $10. I think that’s the other part that pushed me away from getting running socks — no thank you, I don’t want to spend $15 for one pair of socks.
So, PowerSox wants to hook up one of my readers with some of their awesome socks! I will be giving away a three-pack of the Women’s PowerSox Gold Toe Power-Lites (the same ones I tried out, only in white!). And, I’m also throwing in a pair of sweet Sweat Pink laces.
So, your feet will be happy and pink. A great combination!

I'm glad you liked them and agree with you about the insanity over $15.00 socks! I have to say, though, I am MOST excited about following you on Pinterest!!! I didn't know you were a pinner, too! Yay!
wow what a fab giveaway! I keep my tootsies happy by rolling them on a tennis ball after running. It's heaven, if you haven't already you should try it.
My feet are happiest in flip flops. But since I can't do that all the time they like a good foot lotion on them daily.
I protect them very carfully. I wear sandals/flip flops with caution and try to make sure whe I am working out/running I am wear good shoes(lots of cushioning!)

I've always bought the two layer Right socks, and I've never had a blister. It would be interesting to try something new
I keep my feet happy by always being barefoot in my house and whenever its socially acceptable haha. My feet are happiest when they are free!

I actually have plantar fasciitis, so my feet usually aren't too happy but I try to roll a ball under my foot and ice it……these socks look awesome though!

i keep my feet happy with great socks…. i LOVE socks!
Pedicures do the trick!
Allowing someone else to massage my feet and legs while I catch up on reading is totally the way to go!
Enjoy your 10K tomorrow!
Mt feet are often not very "happy", but one thing that helps is having comfy flip flops to put on after a hard rub.

Pedicures! I really could use some new socks though!
Pedicures make me (and my feet happy)!

Ooh those look great! I’m always on the lookout for running socks…good socks definitely help prevent blisters. No blisters = happy feet
Oh, and pedicures every so often of course!!

So far, the only thing that keeps them happy is to do a little baby powder rub down pre-race and use Injinji toe socks. I tried Balega before, and for short runs/races, they are fab, but for 1/2 marathons, I got blisters. And I mean big, gnarly blisters. No fun

I keep my feet happy by scrubbing them with a pumice stone in the shower every day. Mostly that keeps me happy, but my feet don’t mind.
