When I am excising I have a ton of leggings and loads of tops to wear, but the one thing I really struggle to get right it the socks! If they are a little too small or a little too big they kill my feet! 

So finding the right pair is really important to me! I know how much I am sounding like Goldie locks right now, but it is very true. No one enjoys getting blisters or having to stop during a run every few minutes to adjust your socks. I prefer sports socks that come just above my trainers for running and slightly higher for netball. 

When Bridgedale got in touch to see if I would be interested in testing out some of the new socks I was really excited, and of course I wanted to test them out! 

I received three different pairs and I think I fell in love with all of them! The first pair I tried out was the Na-kd Gym Socks – These are designed for gymgoers, they are ultra-light running socks and feature a SlingShot heel fit which means they don’t move around and don’t rub. I would probably say these are my favourites! 

The second pair I tried out were the Speed Diva Running and Cycling Socks – these ones are again really lightweight and highly breathable, my favourite thing about these socks is the cushioning on pressure points (ball of the foot, lace up area and Achilles) they are soooo comfy and really cushiony! (not sure if that is a word but I’m going with it!)

The third and final pair are the Bridgedale Trekker – These ones are Bridgedale’s bestselling mid-weight sock. It brings together Enduro Wool and technical fibres giving fast wicking moisture control and durability. They are a lot higher up the ankle than the other two, so I have worn these when walking. 

I think all three of these pairs of socks are amazing and would honestly wear these for all of my workouts! Now I just need to go and order them! Do you only wear one brand of socks?

Im not sure if this is just a me thing or maybe a female thing or maybe even a sporty type thing…But I am literally always looking for new kit. And trust me this can be just from new socks, to new trainers, to the full outfit! I think I might have a little problem. 

I love to buy patterned leggings and then stick to a plain top, that way I can mix and match until my heart is content (and looking at my kit draw this could be a pretty long time!!) 

One thing that really isn’t helping my problem is that you can buy really nice sports kit from so many places now! 

JD Williams is the perfect example of this! They have just moved into the sports and leisure market, and sell a range of products and brands including: Adidas, Nike, New Balance, Pineapple, Shock Absorber and loads more. 

With this order I stuck with my typical style of bold leggings and simple top and went with the spotty Nike full length leggings (8/10) and the Nike advance 15 cape (8/10) 

Although I ordered the smallest size available I think I could have done with smaller size, the leggings are very long on my little legs, but will be perfect for yoga and workouts that I do at home. The jacket is also a little on the big side, but I don’t think that is always a bad thing – Just helps me to get really snugly!
