Swiftwick Socks have been making high performance socks for 15 years. I tried the Flite XT, to see what benefits it offers for golfers. I wore these pairs of Swiftwicks for multiple rounds of golf. Their new color choices make them an even better match for your golf apparel.

This is the definitive Swiftwick Flite XT Socks Review for 2023.

Can golf socks really help your game? A pair of socks can’t add 15 yards to your drive, nor can they guarantee you’ll hit more fairways or make more putts. However, bad socks can certainly ruin a round and impact future rounds of golf. While you rarely think about your golf socks, I’d like you to evaluate your feet after a round of golf and consider the potential that your feet might appreciate better socks, especially if they are hurting. Swiftwick offers many golf specific socks that will keep your feet comfortable, blister-free and help them recover faster after golfing. The Flite XT socks are one of their best models for golf.

Flite XT (now in Colors)

The Swiftwick Flite XT is their newest sock for golf. It is blend of fibers to fit nicely while staying in place. It has what they call: Anklelock technology which is designed to keep the sock from moving around or rubbing during a round of golf. The Gripdry Fibers are bands of grip to keep the sock in place in the heel and forefoot so that you feet stay in place in your shoes. It creates a stable more connected feeling first to your shoes and then to the ground. While these socks are almost unnoticeable visibly the new hints of color pop on the top of your shoe, especially if you are wearing shorts. One of the best compliments you can give a sock is that you didn’t notice wearing them: no bunching up, no blisters and no sliding around.

Summary

Swiftwick offers many choices of socks for golf. The Flite XT is an excellent choice with its compression, low show and contoured fit. The Flite XT are also thin, breath nicely and have good color choices which are perfect for golf. While Swiftwick socks aren’t going to improve your golf game, they will certainly help your feet stay comfortable and recover after the round. You won’t have blisters or sore feet from your socks no matter how many holes you walk. They are comfortable, durable and beneficial for your feet. Add to that you can get them in various colors to match your style.
