Ever since DeFeet made the obvious decision to abandon running socks in favor of cyclists, I've been looking for high quality, ultra-thin running socks. Otherwise I would not have discovered these SkinLife compression socks from Pure Compression. Leave it to the Italians to get it right. The socks fit like a dream, are very comfortable to walk long miles in, are surprisingly thin and have held up very well so far (200+ miles). They are breathable and dry very quickly. Another thing I really like about them is that the cuff sits nice and comfortably above the ankle - not at toe level but just right. I was amused by the left and right sock labels, but I'll tell you, if you mix up your feet, they won't feel right. It's 50/50 if I take the right sock on my right foot, but right now I'm hitting a thousand. I followed the manufacturer's advice NOT TO TRY THEM AND I encourage you to do the same. As I said, they dry very quickly outdoors, especially here in Colorado where humidity is very low most of the time. I've bought two pairs and will definitely be buying more to replace my aging and frayed DeFeet collection soon. Buy these beautiful socks with confidence and RUN!
