​"Your Feet are the major power transfer station between your legs and your pedals. So is it any wonder that we take our sock game so seriously?! We trust the comfort of our feet year-round to the King family & KTA."- HPH Pro cycling team

"King Technical Apparel has built the perfect sock. Finding a technical sock that is the right height, the right compression, the right weight is like searching for the holy grail. The King family has applied its decades of experience in the cycling industry to craft what I now consider to be the holy grail of socks--the 7" racing compression sock. The KTA sock provides the perfect mix of compression, comfort, and performance. This isn't a surprise considering the level of product development that went into creating it and the level of riders who spent years testing and giving feedback to KTA."
​-Peter Hufnagel, Dean at Miller School

​"I've literally been wearing my KTA socks ALL THE TIME to train (for the Boston Marathon). No Blisters even on long runs. They are just perfect!"
​- Daniela DeCristo, competitive long distance runner

"My KTA socks are the best pair I own.  I used to swear by other brands, but King socks combine the best features of my previous favorites.  I wear them for both running and riding.  They slip on easily and stay in place.  They have just the right density so that my shoes feel comfortable at the beginning and end of long runs.  Runners don’t have to worry much about equipment, but good socks make a difference, and these are the best."
-Lee Coppock, Elite runner/cyclist & Econ. Professor

"We ran into your socks at US Nationals. We picked some up as souvenirs , but when we got home we wore them and said "We have to get some more of these!"  Last weekend we won the Texas State Team Time Trial with the fastest time overall and decided to use our winnings to get your socks."
-Nathan Lesniewski, Texas TTT State Champ

"These are the best fitting, most comfortable cycling socks I've ever had!"

This was a great fundraiser for our organization! Selling socks helped promote school spirit and support our team at the same time.  Selling PERFORMANCE socks, made it a good value as well.

The custom process was extremely easy. The team at KTA listened to what I wanted and had a very quick turnaround on the design.  

The entire volleyball team wears their socks every home game and now the basketball team wants them too!

Thanks, KTA, for making this a great experience for us.

"The gear and clothing that I use simply has to be super functional and durable, period. 
That said, I have to mention an awesome find that are making my feet super happy of late! I am really LOVING the socks I’ve been using all winter! 
I’ve used “THE Wool” model as base layer in my ice climbing boots (warm), cross country ski boots (warm) and of course, winter cycling shoes (toasty). I love the warmth of a thinner wool sock and how well they vacuum-fit to the foot. Very versatile. My King socks will absolutely be on my feet this summer as I ride numerous Pyrenees and Alp mountain passes while visiting the Tour de France! "

"I first discovered the year-round benefits of lightweight wool blend socks about fifteen years ago. They are warm in the winter, cool in the summer and resistant to odors. I wear them daily for all my activities; work, play, road biking, mountain biking, hiking and snow sports. So I feel qualified to state that King Technical Apparel “The Wool” socks are some of the best that I’ve had on my feet! You can tell immediately after putting on these socks that a lot of thought went into the design and construction. They feel great with their seamless toe, arch definition and have just the right amount compression to hug your foot and ankle. The fabric density feels just right and implies that these socks are built to last. As a promoter of cycling events I felt strongly enough about these KTA wool socks to provide them to riders of a recent event. So I contacted KTA and worked with them to design a custom wool sock for my event. The finished product was outstanding and feedback from the riders was very positive!"
