Where can I find an XL pair of soccer socks? I have very large calves and Mens Size 6-12 will not fit me.?
I currently have size 6-12 socks and they do not fit. I will need larger than that, but cannot seem to find them anywhere. If possible orange and or black is preferred.
For larger people things can be more challenging to find. Some times a specialty store is a good place to look. I'm sure Dicks Sporting Goods might have the socks you are looking for... If you are a girl you might be able to settle for men's socks, which will be larger, besides their is nothing wrong wearing them especially because it is just for a sport. Good Luck!

The Features That Anyone Should Expect From Quality Combat Vests
Protection, multipurpose use, lots of pockets, accessibility, durability, these are the features anyone expects from quality combat vests. Worn over the jackets, these clothing items are actually the ones that ensure the easy use of ammunition and other combat elements that would otherwise seem out of reach. Even the rear patches of the combat vests are placed in such a way so as to ensure easy access to the content. There is usually a standard size the design involves, but all combat vests include adjusters on the shoulders, in the kidney area or for the back; such peculiarities can be used either vertically or horizontally and they enable the wearer to control the motion comfort level.
Since night vision is now part of all military equipments, combat vests have all sorts of features incorporated in their special dyes that make such apparel items unique and identifiable. For the safety of the wearer, the closure system of combat vests include both zippers and clips, while pouches also have modern closing designs that prevent the accidental opening and drop of military gear. When you take a look at such a vest, you'll definitely be left surprised by the incredibly large number of pouches and pockets. What could one put in them all? And this seems like a justified question.
There is a simple explanation, combat vests need to include anything necessary to the user; thus, from maps to lights and hydration reservoirs, each item of equipment has its pre-established place. The material combat vests are made of has to be waterproof while also acting as a wind stopper. Depending on the season, you can use combat vests with or without fleece linings; yet, whichever be the case, the weather resistant material is usually a combination of gore-tex and other synthetic compounds obtained through modern technological processes.
If regular combat vests can also be purchased by civil users who can use them for a variety of outdoor activities, one cannot say the same about the bullet proof combat vests used by the police and military intervention troops. Such military gear includes removable protective panels for each body part that can be adjusted to the user's size due the presence of elastic devices on the sides. If you get the chance to leaf an army gear catalog you'll notice the charts with the sizes of the bullets, against which combat vests can protect the user.

Many Hospitals Move to Disposable Scrub Hats - Are Cotton Surgical Caps Less Sterile
Several hospitals across the nation have shifted from allowing reusable, washable cotton scrub hats to strictly requiring disposable caps in the operating rooms. The change is one that is still under debate: are disposable surgical head coverings more sterile than washable cotton scrub hats?
Disposable Surgical Hat
An operating room is sterile, as most know. What some may not know, however, is that before a surgeon or any medical professional enters the operating room, the scrub hat goes on before any other part of their uniform, even before their scrubs. Because bacteria is most numerous near the surface of the epidermis coupled with hair having the possibility of carrying potentially pathogenic bacteria, covering the head and hair is of the utmost importance. So why the concern for disposable hats vs those that can be laundered and worn again?
Studies as to whether surgical infection rates when disposable scrubs versus cotton scrubs are worn are few and far between and there is no conclusive evidence on either side. That being noted, each hospital sets its own policy which determines if medical uniforms must be removed after leaving the O.R. and then fresh scrubs donned prior to re-entry of the surgical unit or if the surgeons are permitted to cover their scrubs with gowns or lab coats between cases. Consensus states that when scrubs have become soiled (or wet, regardless of the reason), then they must be changed. However, the odds of a scrub hat needing to be changed due to collecting fluid is not likely, but even so, the surgical staff can carry numerous changes of caps in the event that one does need to be replaced. If scrub caps are changed as often as all other non-disposable surgical attire, then once daily should suffice. The bacteria that hair can carry is directly related to its length, its oiliness, and its curliness; however, if the hair is contained in a hat, then the bacteria, theoretically, is no more likely to be passed to the patient during surgery whether the surgeon is sporting a disposable hat or a reusable cap. Considering that the hats are laundered under controlled conditions with the proper detergent and heat, then a cotton hat is just as sterile as its disposable counterpart.
The cotton versus disposable preference has been debated for decades. Without sufficient research to determine the impact of surgical infection directly related to attire, cotton hats will always be more prominent across the country's operating rooms than disposable hats. Besides being just as sterile as disposable hats when properly washed, cotton hats have much less of a negative impact on the environment.
For the time being, many hospitals plan to continue to allow their surgical staff to decorate the operating rooms with their colorful, cotton scrub hats, while other facilities are searching for a fashionable alternative to the bouffant so that those who want to operate in style can do so without wearing a reusable cap.

Best Heavy Winter Jacket and hat?
After walking down to the bus stop each morning in 7 degree weather, with only 2 hoodies, i would like to find a nice acceptable jacket. Any ideas on the best type of jacket?
I started thinking of a hunter's jacket, i dont know what they actually call them, but i assume they are pretty heavy and warm.
Also, i am looking for a type of hat. I assume its a skaters hat, but im not positive. It is like a cotton or wool hat i guess. It has a point and part of a cap on the hat.
For cold weather like that, down jackets are the best. Only downfall to those kind of jackets would be their price and maintenance, washing a down jacket can be pain! Price wise, a good down jacket can cost a couple hundred bucks such as The North Face Nuptse which sells for $200.
My own recommendation would be a snowmobile jacket. Warm, stylish, rugged.....you can get a great snowmobile jacket and not pay too much. One of the best brands is Choko. This is the brand of winter jacket I wear. My jacket kept me warm in below 0 temps. Here is a link to their website:
Best of all you can purchase a Choko jacket as an outfit with snow bib pants. Their CDI outfit retails for $130, can't beat that price for top to bottom warmth, some winter jackets alone retail for that price. The 400 outfit sells for $160.
You can Google search for other retailers that sell Choko or look on eBay for an even better deal. As for the hat your looking for.....I'm not familiar with what your looking for, but just a regular knit hat, more commonly known as a beanie works great.
