Balega for me, have tried socks from Nike and Hilly but much preferred the soft feel of the Balega. They fit well too. I did try Injinji toe socks but even in my size they felt very restrictive between my toes and caused blisters there (not ideal).

To name just a few: Feetures socks are pretty awesome, they have a very snug, yet comfy fit and stay miraculously dry at any weather condition. The „RU5“ by Falke are super thin, lightweight and breathable with some minimal cushioning, they pair well with light shoes like the Rebel V2 - I love to feel the air at my toes while running. The Asics „Ultra Comfort“ are great every day socks with a good balance between breathability and cushioning. La Sportivas „Fast“ and „Sky“ are very light, yet very robust (and kinda pretty). The thing is: certain socks often work best with certain shoes, so it can be a bit of a rabbit hole... 🐰

For me, it's definitely the running socks from the company "Falke". RU4/ light for daily training, RU5 for speed training and competition. I slowly have the feeling that I have to send you a care package from Germany with socks from "Falke", running shoes from True Motion (Nevos, and definitely the Solo) and other things that I find. Great video as always, stay healthy and without injury.

I always use full lenght compression socks; because if I dont I'll get shinsplints like crazy. On the few occasions I do run without compression I never really paid any attention to what sock I was wearing. I have a few Newbody socks; some Pro Touch and I may even have a pair of Puma. And I have also worn regular merinowool socks. I might see if any of those socks sell in Sweden; because full lenght compression socks is a workout in it self just to get on your foot; especially the ones from 2XU that I use. Not what you need if you're just doing a slow 5K.

TBH I have looked at many sick brands but since starting running 4 years ago, I have always used basic Kalenji socks from Decathlon and Karrimor padded socks from Sports Direct. They have been amazing, never any blisters and last pretty well for price. Recent changes in Kalenji mean that they don't seem to fit quite as well and I got blisters on the ends of my middle toes at London Marathon though I had also changed shoe brand so maybe the combination wasn't so good (or shoes were a little too small).

I like a lot of these picks, but a BIG brand i like wearing around and they even make running socks is bombas. They have a beehive pattern for ventilation AND every pair you buy, they donate an even better special pair to a homeless shelter.

I have large feet (UK12.5/Wide), and I've been on a mission to find a pair of running socks that don't make my feet feel like they're in bindings before I even leave the house. I'm hoping for some success from a pair of Falke socks arriving tomorrow, failing that going to try some Bridgedale trail socks. But if anyone has similarly large feet (wide, UK12.5, US13.5, EU47.5), I'd appreciate any brand name tips, as it's awfy expensive to keep buying socks which don't fit.

Not got wide feet but for length on a 12.5UK the rockay accelerate are great 🙂 size XL of course!

@@davidpurvis1769 Thanks for the suggestion. It's because I have wide feet that XL socks always feel so tight. But I see now that Rockay also do an XXL version, which is unusual, so I'll give them a try. Thanks again.

“No show” socks have the disadvantage that if you have bonny ankles debris can easily get in through the gaps formed between the concave surfaces of your ankles and the collar of the socks.

I'm not a long distance runner but I like a pack of generic five finger sucks I bought on Amazon at 14€ for 5 pairs. They last about 150km each and haven't had any blisters or other for issues with them

Interesting review. The Zouma socks sound good - another jumping on the 'save the earth' rhetoric paradigm? The compostability thing of the tab etc points to a real attempt to truly 'do something', have a usp in their small corner... and the tree thing: lucky old Madagascar! The super-dooper slidey technology sock? Yeh, right! Have us ordinary runners got the word MUG tattooed on our foreheads?

Stance socks all the way. They have athletic, run light, and run ultra light socks for your easy days all the way to race day. Their socks actually have a left and a right sock because they use multiple materials to help hug your foot better. They may seem a bit pricy but they come with a lifetime guarantee so if you ever get a hole in them, take them in and get a new pair.

en chaussettes non compressives : Salomon,Inov 8 Et Asics Lyte (uniquement par temps chaud car très fines) (je n'aime pas les Gore Wear, trop épaisses) Et en chaussettes compressives uniquement compressport car BV sport trop fragiles. Mais quand on a gouté aux chaussettes compressives on a du mal à passer aux chaussettes classiques.
