Round 2 of Point 3’s Basketball Apparel and I’m loving their new arrivals.
X-Wrap Basketball Socks
Pros
– Well cushioned
– X-Wrap provides targeted compression
– Moisture wicking fabric
– Design
Cons
– Lower calf/upper ankle section of the sock would greatly benefit from more compression
DRYV Baller 2.0 Basketball Shorts with DRYV® Moisture Control
Pros
– Lightweight
– Moisture control
– Great airflow
– Built-in towel for hands
– Length of short fixed
– Built-in towel placement expanded to a larger space
Cons
– Every con I originally had has been resolved
Overall – Any complaints I initially had about their previous shorts have been taken care of & I absolutely love these new 2.0 versions. As for the socks, they’re fresh and new… its nice to see other brands get into the sock thing since its so popular right now. There are the main brands that are usually sought after but I think that these should be right along side them. Great design, performance and you can be unique by choosing to opt for something other than the norm.
If you haven’t already given Point 3 Basketball Apparel a try then you’re missing out.
Short + Towel = Genius. I have been using Point 3 products ever sine your review of their shorts. Love their stuff. I just used the socks and loved them!
Nice!
Will the socks provide any more support than your typical elite socks? If so, how much?
Its more of an isolated support, right at the ankle and its ligaments. Elites have more compression overall.
Interested
It is true though, it is nice to have another brand besides nike Adidas and Jordan making socks because just like stance you can wear these socks with every shoe and if they are good a ball socks that helps as we’ll. Oh and they do that too in Cali with elite socks and vans gosh who started that lol.
How do the X-Wrap socks fit size wise compared to Nike Elite’s?
I’m size 15 and got the 12-15 and they are a little small.
Shorts with built-in towels, GENIUS! The guy who came up with the concept deserves a special place in Heaven
