It’s the day we’ve been waiting for…no, not Thanksgiving, but the day after, when towns across the U.S. hold their annual Turkey Trot and we get another excuse to go outdoors, get moving and have fun with friends and family.

SockGuy, the performance sock company famous for its holiday-themed options with performance capability, released its 2015 Thanksgiving designs, adding yet another reason to lace up and get active pre or post-feast.
The Pot Pie Limited Edition socks are (rightfully) etched with, “Will Run for PIE!” Made to be a fun accessory for this year’s Turkey Trot, these Channel-Air socks are designed smart. Five channels of padded cushioning and 4 channels of mesh for increased air flow are a drastic shift from traditional padded socks – which typically have more bulk in the foot that increases heat build-up and puts stress on the moisture management system. SockGuy claims to have solved that problem with the introduction of its 4 channels of air-mesh. The goal: eliminate needless weight and bulk. The Channel-Air sock design still delivers Ultra-Plush Cushioning, but with its Air-Mesh sidekick (with an arch support) the result is a cool cushioned wear.
Yes, the whole SockGuy Thanksgiving lineup has fun turkey-themed names. The 6” Thanksgiving Special Edition Wool Crew Cuff is dubbed, “Gobble ’til you Wobble,” making us wonder just how much turkey we can eat without surrendering our post-feast run or hike.
These socks are made from TurboWool, 50-percent Merino and 50-percent polypropylene, in a blend that is five-times the strengths and durability of Merino wool alone, the brand says. Shrink-resistant and itch-free are added benefits to keeping your feet dry, even if its mucky during your trek. SockGuy’s Wool socks also feature an “Easy-Fit” cuff and “Stretch-to-Fit” sizing system, meaning no bunching and great performance. And just look how festive those pumpkins are…
SockGuy’s 2015 Turkey Trot Limited Edition socks were made for running. Also featuring the Channel-Air system with madding and venting, these also boast the brand’s newest seamless toe. Any guesses to the name of these socks? It’s classic…”Gobble, Gobble.”
Even if you don’t sign up for a Turkey Trot this Thanksgiving, be sure to get outside with the ones you love. And if you missed the bus on getting festive with your socks, there’s always December and Christmas themed options…
