Zero Give vs TRUsox 3.0: Soccer Grip Socks Compared (2026)

ZERO GIVE™ VS TRUsox 3.0 — MEASURED 2026 COMPARISON

Zero Give and TRUsox 3.0 were compared using the same internal sample-measurement protocol for pair weight, full-sock toe thickness and full-sock cuff thickness, plus repeated pendulum friction testing.

Zero Give vs TRUsox 3.0 results

Measurement Zero Give TRUsox 3.0
Pair weight 58 g 76 g
Full-sock toe thickness 3.37 mm 4.47 mm
Full-sock cuff thickness 4.40 mm 5.43 mm
Mean pendulum reading 75 BPN 25 BPN

Construction differences in the tested samples

The measured Zero Give pair was 18 g lighter, or 23.7% lower in pair weight. Its full-sock toe measurement was 1.10 mm lower, or 24.6% thinner, and its cuff measurement was 1.03 mm lower, or 19.0% thinner.

Friction-test result

Across four pendulum tests per sock, Zero Give averaged 75 BPN and TRUsox averaged 25 BPN. Zero Give therefore recorded three times the numerical BPN under this setup. This is not evidence of three times better match performance or three times more real-world traction; BPN is an apparatus-specific measurement.

Which is better for a low-profile cleat fit?

For players specifically prioritizing lower measured bulk in this sample comparison, Zero Give recorded the lower weight and lower toe/cuff measurements. Players may still prefer different cushioning, feel or construction characteristics, so the measurements should be considered alongside personal fit preferences.
