Dr Scholls Review Part 3

Sorry to my blog followers, it has been quite some time since my last post.

I am here to review on the Dr Scholl's Socks as I have just got an enquiry from US if I am still selling the socks =). I am unaware that there isn't any Dr Scholl's socks available in US. When I first visited Tokyo a few years back, the socks wasn't available in Singapore retailers too.

However, the socks came to Singapore 2-3 years back and it price was quite steep at the Watsons store. You can either wait for Watsons offers and member sales or you can also head to Chinatown's toiletries store at People's park complex. I saw them selling the socks at a slightly cheaper price.

Currently, I am only left with the black/pink limited edition Long Socks. Please let me know if you are interested to get them at SGD$55 excluding shipping.

Now for the review on the socks after 3 years of using it.

I have lost the photo which I took my last calves measurement as my laptop's HDD crashed. =( Nevertheless, let me do the review based on my best knowledge.

I do not wear the socks everyday as I am not so hardworking =). However, I put them on whenever I remember to do so and after my strenuous exercises and long hours of walking in heels or shopping.

As mentioned in my last review, it helps to tighten the calves during bedtime and the next morning, I feel my calves much lighter and the calves muscles weren't that tight as compared to the previous night. Sometimes I wonder if this is the same as the model's method of "raising your legs 90 degrees for 20 mins before bed". Some tips I got from the web to relief tired legs.

After 3 years of using the same pair of socks and at least 5 times of washing, the socks loses its elasticity slightly. I guess the lifespan of the socks is about 2.5 years with minimal washing frequency. What I would recommend is to wash your socks when it is dirty or when you feel that it is not clean for wearing anymore. Tumble dry and do not drip dry. Just lay flat to dry. =) Just my 3 cents.

I will be getting a new socks once I moved in to my new house and am ready for more beauty routines =). I always feel that keeping our calves sexy and slim looking is very important as this is actually one of the first few parts (of course that includes hair and breasts) that some guys set their eyes on when they first look at any women. Look at some statistics here.
