What to Wear: Socks Built for the Roxzone

Sixty-plus minutes of running and functional work in the same pair of socks means blisters and hot spots if your kit is wrong. Venture's Gym & Fitness collection – including Death Bike – is built specifically for HYROX and CrossFit-style training, with moisture-wicking fabric, shin protection for sled pushes and arch support for the running legs.
