 hi I'm Mitch Mitchell and today I'm doing a review and whereas other people will review video games or maybe cartoons or movies today I'm reviewing socks this is the goofiest thing but you know what I'm reviewing socks these things are actually called heat lockers and yes you know you have to open up the thing and I saw these at BJ's wholesale matter of fact I was with my mother yesterday in the Rochester area and we went to BJ's because it's one of the trips that we make and I saw these socks and I said okay that looks interesting and the only thing that I thought it looked interesting because it talks about how it warms your feet up to seven times better than any regular thermal socks and I said at the time well okay you know what I need to go check those out I need to research that when I get home because if it had some kind of stuff in it where it generated heat then I had to kind of think about staying away because I did this video I think a couple years ago where I talked about buying the heat packs and going to a hockey game and putting those things in my shoes and how they pretty much like burned my feet and my feet were really tender for up to three weeks and I'm diabetic so you know you don't go around messing with feet so I came back and I looked these things up and it said that it was made of these different types of polymer that's my wife's sound on the phone because she's just that cool I'm just saying it anyway so it says up to seven times look at this there you go there's the seven times warmer so I wanted to give them a try now they come in a two pack like this and they don't it's hard to find two of the exact same color so I'm wearing the black right now and this is a dark gray there was a really light gray and I said what am I gonna ever wear a light gray there was one that had a blue and a gray and I didn't see you know like brown and gray but of like two different colors of blues and I said you know what what's the deal with that so their intention obviously isn't that you wear these as normal every day socks whatever so they talked about it they talk about how it's woven they talk about how it has this nice little cushion and how they would be really comfortable but it's supposed to do this thing for seven times a feet I'm one of those people who gets really cold feet and when my feet are cold the rest of me is miserable actually it's my feet and my hands and I can deal with cold I mean I've lived in some of the coldest places in the world okay that may be stretching in a bit I lived in limestone main where the temperatures were regularly minus 25 and I live in Syracuse New York where I can get really cold and of course we have the snow and all this other kind of stuff and I don't go to a lot of hockey games because my feet always get really cold so I figured okay let's give these suckers a shot so I'm wearing a pair right now and I've been wearing this pair for about an hour or so and I wanted to talk about it so let me say this there's no instructions on how you're maybe supposed to wear these and then you know they're socks and I put that out because I gotta tell you right now my feet are not seven times warmer these aren't warmer than anything they are really comfortable though if you put your feet in them and it just feels like a pillow is just absorbing them so I usually buy diabetic socks not because I'm diabetic but because they're really comfortable they just are they don't fit your feet really tight and they're a little cushier than normal socks so I buy the diabetic socks they cost a little bit more but you know there you go so that's why I went ahead and decided you know I'll try these because these are $15 for two pairs of socks but I figured you know if they actually work then it's worth a shot so like I said my feet are still cold they're not any warmer I'm thinking if they keep your feet seven times warmer than those other socks must really stink not seven times warmer I like I said there's no instructions so it doesn't say anything that you know if your feet are already cold and they're gonna stay cold it doesn't say anything like that it doesn't say while we'll warm them up it just says it will keep them warmer matter of fact here's the thing right on here it talks about the three stage warmth process so it talks about heat locker yarn heat locker loops heat locker inner okay so my quick review t-strings aren't seven times warmer than nothing now I don't have shoes on I don't know if shoes will make them warmer but I'm in my house you know what I work from home most of the time so I don't wear shoes all the time in the house so you know if there's that caveat they don't tell you that so maybe at some point later on I'll have my shoes on like I said they're thicker which means the shoes are gonna be thicker I'm not sure how comfortable that's going to be I'll figure that out later on but if I had to just you know tell you around the bat seven times warmer uh-uh warmer than normal regular old socks a little bit seven times warmer than thermal socks no ain't gonna get there very very comfortable though so maybe if you're wearing boots and you need a little extra boost and you look for something a little bit more comfortable than those thermal socks and you don't mind spending 15 bucks for two pairs of socks then go for it but anything else you know what it doesn't live up to the height so there you go I don't know if anyone else has done a review on heat locker socks if not you just okay I was about to say you've just been filled in but then someone's gonna say he's trying to steal from Philip DeFranco okay it's a great line you've just been filled in I'm not Phil I'm Mitch Mitchell y'all take care
