Professional boxer Paul Gordon in the ring with his coach

Professional Boxer Paul Gordon wears Air-Tec Socks, here's why

On Saturday 22nd August, professional boxer Paul Gordon steps into the ring as the challenger for the English title. It is the biggest fight of his career so far, and it will be broadcast on television.

When you are preparing for a bout of this scale, every single detail counts, right down to the socks on your feet. We recently caught up with Paul during a training session to film a chat with our boxing specialist, Rob Ottley. In the video, Paul and Rob dig into the realities of nutrition and explain just how vital sponsorship is when a fighter is climbing the ranks.

Paul is one of many boxers who chooses Air-Tec Wear socks, and it is easy to see why. Our sports socks feature grip on both the top and bottom. This stops an athlete's foot from shifting inside their footwear, which is essential during high-intensity movement in the ring. That rock-solid foundation gives boxers the friction they need to dig their toes into the canvas when throwing a punch.

On top of that, our patented breathers boost stamina by getting airflow directly to the skin. Whether you are in the ring, on the track, or out on the field, breathability is a massive advantage. Air-Tec Wear socks are crafted from a blend of Coolmax and bamboo. Bamboo is naturally antibacterial and moisture-wicking – drawing sweat away from the skin to keep feet cool, dry, and comfortable.

Everyone at Air-Tec Wear wishes Paul Gordon the very best for his match on Wednesday. We look forward to sharing more news from professional athletes on how and why they choose Air-Tec Wear.
