Image 1 of 4

Welcome to our group test of riding socks. All of the socks in this group test have been thoroughly tested by former eventer turned para dressage rider Tamsin Addison. Find out what she thought below.

Official description

The Pikeur Contrast socks are 62% cotton, 36% polyamide and 2% elasthane.

First impressions

I was immediately hit by the large branding and they also looked quite long. I liked the fact that you were clearly instructed which was the left and which was the right.

Overview of performance

I found these particularly good to wear under long boots. They were also supportive around the foot area, but quite tight to put on. Performance-wise, they were really comfortable, warm enough without being too sweaty, and they remained in place.

Tamsin’s likes and dislikes

I do like the supportive on foot once it is on. I also never really got used to the huge Pikeur logo.

Verdict

They’re really good quality, so great value.
