Swiftwick Vision Six Impression Socks – Fun Filled Artwork
Swiftwick Vision Six Impression Socks – Fun Filled Artwork
Andrew Piotrowski
The Swiftwick Vision Six Impression Socks are known in my house as the “bug Socks.” They earn this nickname due to the plethora of wildly colored insects that decorate the upper section of the socks. This fun-filled artwork was designed by the Students in The Friends of Warner Park Urban Nature Program.
This program works to connect local youth with the Outdoors, and all sales from these socks go directly to them. AWESOME! The Vision Six can also be ordered with one of 18 National Park Scenes. These detailed scenes are incredible and even feature one of my favorite parks, Acadia in Maine. However, not only do these look awesome, but they also perform well in high-energy output activities.
Moisture Wicking – I have long been a fan of Swiftwick for their sock’s ability to keep my feet dry. When it comes to running and hiking, it is very important to keep your feet happy. Over the past few months, I have run many hot, sweaty, and humid miles in these and have stayed 100% blister fee. They quickly wick any sweat or moisture and keep your feet very dry.
Comfortable – The blend of Nylon, Polyester, and Spandex feels great and comfortably supports your feet. The fit keeps them tight to your foot, and they I have not had them slide around at all. They have the perfect mix of cushioning and compression that keeps them comfortable all day long.
Great Cause – Swiftwick supports great charities like the National Park Foundation and Friends of Warner Park.
MSRP – $15.99 (On Sale from $19.99)

While he lives pretty far from the mountains, he puts a heavy focus on preparing for them and inspiring others to do the same. He first fell in love with the mountains on family trips to the White Mountains and the Adirondacks. He spent the majority of his early life competitively running and leisurely paddling, however after college he began focusing on learning to climb, snowboard, and backpack.

Over the past ten years since then, he has been fortunate enough to gain some amazing experiences exploring North America. Some of the most memorable thus far are alpine climbing in the Sierra, trail running in Alberta, learning to splitboard in NH, countless days hiking in the Catskills, or a plethora of mellow days paddling the Chesapeake Bay with friends.
