Maestro Sox - New Player In The Anti-Slip Socks Market, Tapedesign Copy/Rival?
Nov 10, 2021, by Chris
Almost 10 years ago, a football equipment revolution started with the release of the TRUsox. The anti-slip football socks were soon worn by hundreds of professionals despite having no endorsement deals. Since then, many new companies entered the market to rival TRUsox. A new player in the game is Maestro Sox, a company from the USA.
Maestro Grip Sox 1.0 Anti-Slip Football Socks
Maestro aim is to offer "affordable high-performing premium quality grip socks for all athletes worldwide". The socks are "made by athletes for athletes". The socks are called "Grip Sox 1.0".
The Maestro Grip Sox 1.0 anti-slip socks are made for grip, improved stability, and security while still offering comfort.
The socks are fairly similar to Tapedesign's socks
In contrast to TRUsox, the Maestro socks only have rubber knobs pads on the bottom outside.
We have been sent four pairs of the Maestro grip socks
We have been sent four pairs of the Maestro grip socks. They have a very similar approach as the socks of Tapedesign, an Austrian company whose socks are possibly the most popular among players today.
In fact, the socks of Maestro have very similar rubber pads as Tapedesign. The materials offer a bit more comfort than the ultra-performance Tapedesign socks.
The price and quality are top
The quality of the Maestro socks, meanwhile, is superb, and the prices are very fair (15 USD / pair).
