CoolMesh II Quarter Running Socks for Men and Women – Eco-Friendly Anti Blister Socks - American Made

As a long time runner, I have tried so many different sock brands over the years. I like quarter ankle socks so they don’t fall down into my shoes but I have never been able to forget about my socks when I am running. Either they are rubbing or they pill which results in tearing up my shoe lining.The best socks I had found before were the brooks ghost lite socks which I love. These are the first socks I have ever just forgot I had on my feet on a run - no competition, best sock ever. They are comfortable and stay put. I don’t like to just wear them around because they are snug, but a good form-fitting snug.

I thought these socks were kind of expensive but have decided they are completely worth the cost. They hug my feet but allow movement and reduce friction. Even with the blister I had, they reduced the friction of walking thus proving to aid in the healing process. I recommend them highly!

Very comfortable socks for walking (and of course running). If you are tired of your socks slipping down in your shoes or plain slipping at your heel and giving you blisters when jogging/running or walking...THESE are your socks! Bought a pair years ago when I was a runner. Not one blister on this double layer socks. Top layer is mesh, so your feet will not get hot. Now I'm a walker and bought 2 more pair after getting a blister from another sock. If I could give higher than 5 stars, I would!!

Best socks ever! Great fit and not too tight.

Great sock to avoid blisters and keep your feet cool on short hikes. They are a bit thin though and you won’t get much wear. Buy on sale and yer good. Great fit and attractive.

Runners can be insanely picky about two things: their shoes and their socks. Like shoes, socks are very much a matter of personal preference. What works for you might not work for me, and vice-versa.I do about 900 miles of running a year, on a combination of road and trail. These are my go-to socks. They are durable, lightweight, and do the best job for me in terms of preventing blisters. (I will note that I also apply 2 Toms Sportstick to a couple known hotspots on my feet before very long or wet runs--the combo is nearly bulletproof.) The coolmesh ii material is not to thick and not too thin. Just yesterday I did a 24-mile solo run on the Ice Age Trail. Because of heavy dew in some meadows, my feet were soaked about 8 miles in, but I had zero blisters at the end of a hilly run over dirt, gravel, large rocks, sand, and grass. If you are having blister issues with your feet and have not tried these socks, I think $7.95 is a small price for a chance at foot nirvana.For durability, I try to use these only for running. But they also work great as walking socks on hot days when I cannot wear sandals for one reason or another.Sizing: My feet are size 11.5, and Large fits great--snug but not too stretched out. I've tried XL and they allow too much foot movement, so I would say if you are right in between sizes, size down.Length: The quarter length are my favorite. The low length allows the cuffs of my shoes to rub my ankles sometimes. I do also use the crew length for cold weather coverage and some trail running, but I have found that the crew length socks tend to sag after a couple months.

Love Swiftwick socks

Cool and light weight
