Glamis Socks
Description: The Glamis Sand Dunes, located in southeastern California near the Arizona border, form one of the largest dune fields in North America and are a premier destination for off-road enthusiasts. Part of the Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area, Glamis stretches for over 40 miles, with massive, ever-shifting dunes that can rise more than 300 feet high. The area draws riders from across the country who come to drive ATVs, dirt bikes, 4x4s, and dune buggies across its open terrain. Beyond recreation, the dunes also have a unique ecological and cinematic significance, having served as a filming location several movies over the years. Despite the harsh environment, specialized plants and wildlife have adapted to survive in this striking landscape.

Description: Do you remember the 80s? Do you remember three-wheelers? Remember pushing that thumb throttle for the first time and downshifting to pop a poor man's wheelie? Remember 2-stroke exhaust? Remember going over a jump, being in mid-air, and realizing that you're not going to land with all 3 tires on the ground? Remember the challenge of conquering a giant dune in 2nd gear, full throttle, shaking the whole way up until the gas cap came loose and spilled non-ethanol gasoline on your crotch?. Remember good times? Yeah, me too.
Description: As dune buggies gained in popularity in the late '60s, they began evolving from homebrewed backyard builds to professionally designed, purpose-built off-road vehicles. These consisted of everything from ready to assemble tube frames and fully welded frame assemblies to turnkey cars for everyone from the weekend warrior to the amateur racer looking to take the checkered flag. Anaheim, California's Sand Toys was one of the earliest full-feature shops catering to the dune buggy and sandrail crowd by offering everything they needed to make their off-road dreams happen as well as a full service department to get their cars ready for the weekend.
Description: The earliest sandrails started out as pan or tunnel buggies and were named as such depending on what factory vehicle was stripped down and used as the basis of the sand car. By the mid-sixties, professionally fabricated, purpose built full tube chassis sandrails were quickly becoming the hot setup and from their shop in Imperial, California, Ray’s Rails was one of the originators. From more traditional import rear engine setups, to all out mid-engine, V8 powered dune rockets, Ray and company rocked the scene and could routinely be found testing and tuning their latest designs and customer rides at the local dunes for over three decades.
Description: San Jose, California's Up-n-Down Off Road Center wasn't just another garage to get your truck lifted, rather a driving force in the early days of monster trucks. Of course, most of what they did was lift trucks and trick them out, but some of the monsters that these guys turned out are the stuff of legend.
Description: Based in North Hollywood, California, the Sandmaster Company was formed in 1966, initially focusing on fiberglass dune buggy conversion kits. By the early '70s, Sandmaster was fabricating their own single seat competition off-road buggies, many of which went on to take class titles in the most grueling of desert racing circuits.
