# Aero Black 7" Cycling Socks > Suarez Aero Black 7" Cycling Socks - 7" aero socks with compression, anti-slip gripper and quick-drying footbed - Price: 39.00 CHF - Brand: Suarez - Category: Socks - Availability: in stock - SKU: XCA05265L/XL2714, XCA05265S/M2714 ## Suarez Aero Black 7" Cycling Socks These Suarez aero socks are designed for **speed** and **fit** – with 7" cuff height for that legal race look and a ribbed upper that guides air cleanly around the shin. The **Spandex**-blend material fits snugly, dries quickly and stays shape-stable, even after many wash cycles. A **non-slip gripper zone** keeps the cuff exactly where it belongs, while left/right-specific shapes optimise the fit in your shoe. Available in two sizes (S/M and L/XL), so you can choose the size that matches your cycling setup. - 7" high cuff for aerodynamic, race-ready look - Ribbed leg material with **compression effect** - **Anti-slip band** for reliable hold - Ergonomic left/right construction - **Quick-drying**, easy-care fibres, shape-stable and durable - Special **footbed** for comfort with every pedal stroke - Two sizes: **S/M (24–27 cm)** and **L/XL (27–30 cm)** ## Technical Details and Features The finely ribbed cuff serves two purposes: it creates defined **airflow channels** for reduced drag while providing gentle **compression** for a secure fit. Inside, a **gripper solution** prevents slipping down, which is particularly noticeable during sprint and time trial efforts. The blend of **quick-drying** fibres and Spandex provides close-fitting hold without wrinkles, while the sole features special fabric that improves pressure distribution in the shoe. According to independent wind tunnel tests, **aero socks** deliver measurable, albeit small time gains – in the range of seconds over 60 km – making them a smart detail upgrade. The UCI regulates sock height; the 7" cuff sits practically below the permitted mark for most riders (maximum up to halfway between ankle and fibula head). ## Applications and Benefits Whether it's fast laps around Lake Zurich, **criterium** racing, club races or an ambitious **time trial**: these Suarez Aero socks deliver a balanced combination of aerodynamics, hold and comfort. The gripper prevents annoying readjustment, and the compression stabilises the cuff even on rough surfaces or in rain. The easy-care, **quick-drying** yarns are ideal for multi-day training blocks or commuting when your kit needs to be ready again in the evening. Thanks to anatomical **left/right fit**, your foot sits securely in the shoe, reducing hot spots and keeping power transfer even. Independent tests show that aero socks can bring small but real watt and second advantages – exactly the **marginal gains** that make the difference. Additional Notes on Care and Fit For the best hold, lay the cuff on smoothly so the **gripper** sits flush against the skin; this keeps airflow stable over the shin. Wash the socks cold at around 30°C, skip fabric softener and air dry to maintain elasticity and shape. Choose between **S/M (24–27 cm foot length)** and **L/XL (27–30 cm)**; the 7" height usually fits under UCI regulations as long as half the lower leg length isn't exceeded. For racing: make sure the cuff doesn't end higher than halfway between **lateral malleolus** and **fibula head** to avoid unnecessary discussions at the start line. For maximum aerodynamics, combine the socks with close-fitting kit and smooth shoe surfaces for a cohesive overall system. ## Variants - XCA05265L/XL2714: in stock - XCA05265S/M2714: in stock --- Source: https://kilometro.ch/en/products/socks-29/aero-black-7-cycling-socks-598
