PowerSox Unveils New Left/Right Technology Sock
Anatomically Correct Design Leads to Better Comfort and Performance

NEWTON, NC– PowerSox by Moretz Sports, the nation’s best-selling brand of athletic socks, has unveiled a new Left/Right Technology sock. Part of the PowerSox Elite Running Collection, the socks have been specifically created for the individual characteristics of the left and right feet. Retailing at two pairs for $11.99, the socks will be available online at www.powersox.com and at sporting goods retailers nationwide in the late Fall. Charles Moretz, creative director, Moretz Sports made the announcement today.

“PowerSox is always seeking new and better ways to increase performance,” said Mr. Moretz. “As Moretz Sports celebrates its 60th Anniversary this year, we continue to bring innovative and performance enhancing products to the consumer athlete. The L/R Technology combines both of these elements and we are very pleased to introduce it to our customers.”

The PowerSox L/R Technology sock is the latest sock science from PowerSox by Moretz Sports. The anatomically correct design conforms to the foot and the toe contour areas, making for a better fit, which contributes to both comfort and performance. Left and right monograms make the socks easily identifiable for sorting.

Other features of the L/T Technology sock include a completely smooth toe seam, arch support brace, strike zone cushioning, and contour ventilation panels. Each of these aids in keeping feet cool, dry and comfortable, which increases the foot’s stamina and helps protect from common foot discomforts such as blisters, corns and various abrasions. The PowerSox Left/Right Technology Sock, USPTO registered trademark # 2959499, offers a lifetime guarantee if not completely satisfied.

PowerSox is owned by the Moretz Sports division of Moretz Inc., a family owned business founded by Hugh Moretz in 1946.
