The most slippery socks I’ve ever worn

Took these to the marathon. I should have known better then to try out something new on the day of the race, but these socks got great reviews. They were ok feeling in terms of softness and they did wick away moisture, but everything else about the socks wasn’t good. By mile 4 some of the color had rubbed off the toes. I was slipping in my shoes the entire time because the socks didn’t grip at all. I’ve never worn socks that slipped in shoes before. That made the race all the more difficult…

Pros
  • Outstanding cushioning and aeration for cycling
Cons
  • The socks may cause blisters due to improper fit

Wonderful fit BUT read this for sizing and weight information

UPDATE 11/14/19Wore these during a half marathon, they felt lightweight and provided a perfect fitted cushion for each foot, with this being the first half marathon I have done at race pace where I didn't have any rubbing issues (toes, ankle, anywhere). These will absolutely be the tool of choice when running half and full marathons in the future. Still leaving at 4 out of 5 since they technically are a little "heavy" for "ultralight" socks, but they are as comfortable and supportive as any…

Pros
  • Golf and exercise
Cons
  • The socks may be too thin and provide inadequate protection

Make sure to wash them first

These are great socks. Make absolutely sure to wash them, then line dry them (the line drying is per the directions) because they will dye your shoes if you have light colored shoes. In fact, maybe wash them twice. There’s also a seam that runs over the top of your toes. You barely feel it and that’s great. I had a little knot kind of by one of my pinky toes of one of the socks and I had to adjust where the seam lay so it wasn’t on my toe. Overall I give these a 4/5. Great socks. I’d buy more.

Pros
  • Active
Cons
  • The socks may be difficult to put on due to their tight fit

The socks are quickly falling apart

I had bought these socks before and was happy with them. I recently purchased more and I find that the newer socks are coming apart. Small pieces of material come off each time I wear them and they will not last very long.

Pros
  • Love these socks. They are the art of perfection when it comes to working out
Cons
  • The socks may not be compatible with certain shoe types

I love these socks!

I bought these socks to wear with my new Nike Free tennis shoes. I needed a thinner sock and these looked good and had a reasonable price attached to them. When they arrived I eagerly put them on and slipped my new shoes on after. The socks were perfect! I can’t feel any sort of seam at or near the toe. I’m super sensitive about toe seams. They drive me nuts. These socks fit nicely. They sort of "hug” my feet. Not a compression type hug. Just a comfy secure hug that makes me feel like these…

Pros
  • Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry
Cons
  • The socks may be too expensive for some consumers

Great fitting, no-slip socks

These socks are anatomically correct and fit so well. They also do not slip with walking and stay nicely in place. Best socks I have ever had!

Pros
  • Would buy again
Cons
  • The material may not be durable enough for frequent use

Perfect for walking and jogging

Love the fit and comfort of these socks with my Saucony running shoes. Not binding. Seam is perfectly placed. No shrinkage after wash, but I do hang to dry. I bought a package of three and ended up buying another package of three.

Pros
  • Only dislike is they are for left foot or right foot. Don't mix them up.
Cons
  • The socks may not be suitable for individuals with sensitive skin

These are my go to socks!

Love these socks. That are thin but tightly woven. Stay put on your foot. No bunching, sliding down, pilling, or moving around while walking. Cool and comfortable. Well made. I wash inside out as well as hang dry.

Pros
  • Fit nicely and feel good for the most part. Not enough padding on the heel for me.
Cons
  • The socks may be prone to pilling

Overpriced, strange fit, misrepresented

These are ok at best. For the price and given all the positive reviews I was expecting much more out of these. However, I don’t really find anything to really like about these socks.1. Colors are way off from pictures - on pictures the green looks bright nearly neon like, in reality they are an ugly shade of olive.2. Fit is weird and the left right are really not much different as the supposed extra padding that would justify the distinction btw L and R is so thin it might as well be…

Pros
  • Durable enough to withstand frequent use and strong enough to withstand rigorous washing
Cons
  • The socks may cause static buildup in certain environments

I tossed out all my other workout socks!

I researched the crap out of workout socks. Purchased a 3 pack. These socks are so amazing that I found myself not even considering wearing any of my other socks. This means I wash them frequently and they are holding up perfectly. Time to shop for another multi-pack set or 2. or 5.

Pros
  • I purchased these socks because I bought them two years ago and they still are holding up great!
Cons
  • The socks may not be suitable for individuals with wide feet

Can't stand the socks!

They are TIGHT fitting, THICK socks. I don't want that compression when running.Tried them on, and packaged them back up for return. There is also about 13% cotton which will make your feet sweat after a long run. Will be returning these the next day and look for something light to wear.

Pros
  • Machine Wash
Cons
  • The socks may not be suitable for people who wear compression stockings
