I've already bought some Fabric poi and since everyone seems to say that sock poi are amazing, I thought I'd get myself a pair of them as well.

However, I'm slightly confused about what colours I'm going to be getting if I order from HoP.

http://www.homeofpoi.com/shop/productDetails.php/267_45_LED_glow

In the example of the green pair for the LED Sock Poi, the socks are green and the glow balls are green as well. However, on all the other pictures of the colours, the socks are white.

So does this mean that all the socks are white?
Or all the socks are white except for the green?
Or all the socks are their respective colours?

etc.

(I assume they're all white? but I want to check.)

Thank you

If you get the green ones, you get white LED balls in a green sock.

The rainbow ones are white balls with rainbow (changing colors) LEDs in white socks.

the others appear to be colored LEDS in white socks.... but i only have the green and rainbow and can speak for those ;o)

oops might be a late reply, but for posterities sake:

If you want LED glow sock poi, you will get whatever colour LED ball you choose (fixed white, fixed green, fixed blue or fixed orange, or colour change rainbow) in a white sock. That's so the sock colour doesn't block the light coming out.

If you want "daytime" or UV reactive coloured socks, you'll get them with tennis balls in. (The link you've got shows them with our white tennis balls so maybe a bit confusing??)

Of course you can mix this up by getting empty coloured socks and putting the LED glow balls inside, but the LED light will be dim in anything other than the white sock.

Hope this helps!

Gabe did you see my set of glow sock poi I had at gooble 6 on sat night? Those were the rainbow HOP ones (albeit the sock was a tad dirty )

I dont recall having them on though, I will be bringing them to the party on sat night anyway if you want to have a look
