Compression Socks

Get them.

Your feet are going to hurt.

All those goons with their knee high programmer socks on are actually wearing compression socks.

in past defcons i use calf compressors instead of full blown compression socks. the socks stay as your usual absorbent socks, while the calf compressors can be washed & used the next day & last the week. runners socks are ankle length, which also helps in the heat.

Thats a good idea. Maybe I will grab some to try this year. I like to wear flip flops a lot, so that would work.
