It’s nearly Christmas time, which means one thing: Summer! Extreme hot weather means the
inside of your car is going to feel like a furnace every time you enter. Sunshades for your car
will be some of the best sellers during the next 3 months, but which ones are the best? Of course
you need the standard front windscreen shade, but side window shades also offer amazing
protection from the sun and heat. Window Sox in particular are extremely popular and offer more
than just sun protection. Window Sox however, are a little more pricey than normal shades, so are Window Sox worth buying?

What Are Window Sox?

Window Sox are an ingenious, Australian made and invented car shade.The Window Sox are
made locally in Perth, Western Australia by the Shevron brand and are one of the most popular
car sunshade brands on the market.The difference between Window Sox and regular shades are that Window Sox fit over the entire
door of the car. A regular side window shade will stick to just the inside of the window.
By going over the entire door of the vehicle, the Window Sox:

1) Provides greater UV protection (blocks 80% of UV rays)
2) Leaves no gaps for the direct sun to enter
3) Prevents insects from entering the car
4) Allows you to open the windows even with the Window Sox fitted

This allows you to have shade in the back while getting the fresh air from the outside.

How Are Window Sox Fitted?

Step 1: Open your rear door (Window Sox are not made for front doors of vehicles) and place to
opening of the Window Sox over the top of of the door.

Step 2: Pull the Window Sox down. Ensure the the tags are facing the front of the vehicle.

Step 3: Adjust the Window Sox until they are fitted tightly. Then prepare to fit adhesive straps
for a more permanent and stronger fit.

Note: Ensure the the surface is cleaned with supplied wipes before sticking down the hook pads.

Who Should Buy Window Sox?

We recommend Window Sox be used by anyone with small children and especially babies.The skin
of a baby is very sensitive to the sun, so it is important that your child is adequately protected for from the sun.
Anyone who regularly has passengers seated in the back seats will also benefit from fitting
Window Sox to their car.
Because Window Sox cut out UV rays by 80% and also reduce the heat inside the vehicle, even if you
do not carry passengers in the rear, it could also be of great value to use Window Sox.

Are Window Sox One Size Fits All?

The beauty of Window Sox, are that they are not one size fits all. They are custom fit for individual cars.
Because of this custom fitting, they leave car with a clean factory finish even though it is an
aftermarket car accessory.

What About Cheap Knock Offs?

Cheaper Window Sox copies are also available. The knock offs however are:
Not custom fitting (Excess material flaps around, or parts of the window are not covered)
Made from a less durable stretchy material
Prone to fading
Cheapens the look for your vehicle

Window sox are not an expensive item ($49.99 a pair), so it makes little sense to go for a knock off product
on an inexpensive item. For a little more money, you can get the original custom fitted Window Sox,
which will last longer and look a lot more presentable.
