The arm sock.
Underrated and under-appreciated, in my humble opinion.
Yeah, maybe you play in the s’th and you don’t have to worry about things such as warmth. But if you’re up in the still North, why, good insulation is the difference between a great practice on the turf or a frustrating one in the cold. Or more importantly, the difference between throwing with confidence as New England turns cold and stormy and shanking a flick because you couldn’t open your hand in time to throw it.
It’s an easy accessory to make. Get a friend (or don’t, if you want to cover both your arms) and split the cost of some long socks (soccer socks do the job very well). Cut the sock before it reaches the bend for the foot. Cut a small hole in the side that your thumb can fit through. Bam!
Keep your arm warm, throw with comfort. If you don’t like the thumb hole/partial hand cover, fold it down. Pop this bad boy on top of some underarmour, and you’ll never have to worry about cold hands again.
hahaha finally using that sense of humor of yours
dont tell socks, but i was really hoping hed bequest me his socks for that reason alone
I had one, too, and was going to bequest it…but then I couldn’t find it! Whoops.
Hey, it’s good to make original items you can bequest, too, ne?
very simple, yet very clever. i actually made a pair for myself for pada mosh this weekend. must say that they worked like a charm, even though they looked dorky as hell.
after being teased for a bit, eventually people where asking to borrow them. long live the arm sock.
