What’s your favourite pair of running socks? Have you been inspired to buy a couple of new pairs? Are there any amazing socks that we’ve left out? We want to hear from you in the comments below 👇
Injinji toe socks far and away favourites. Always wear toe socks (of different brands) and can confirm they aren’t any more difficult to put on than a glove once you’re used to them, and they are great for those that would otherwise get blisters on toes
I agree, Injinji toe socks are great as I always used to get blisters from my toes rubbing together on longer runs, especially when running it wet conditions. Not any more! :-)
Injinji and Xoskin toesocks. I never get blisters up to 100 mile trail races. I think the key is keeping toes from rubbing each other and it splays your toes apart
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.
Watching a 14 minute video about socks. Yes, I’m definitely a runner! I like the Hilly Twin Skin to prevent blisters and rubbing but like the look of the Zouma’s.
I'm evolving into an old man-I wear my grey Injinji beyond running. Original weight on road and trail in all temps. No blisters and my toes don't get squashed together.
Love the Balega silver socks most comfortable pair of socks I’ve found in the run and they are built very well. I’m currently mainly using stance medium cushion socks because they feel great, come in various lengths, are reasonable value and are lifetime guaranteed and their customer service is great if you ever need to return a pair
when it comes to toe socks, a surprisingly good and cheap option are the Decathlon ones I must say! On a more traditional front, Hilly marathon and Hilly ultramarathon fresh have been my socks of choice for years now
For me it’s the Injinji toe socks, maybe a little bit of a faff to get on but zero toe issues, lightweight and comfy and even better if you walk without shoes on as it feels like walking barefoot after a long run
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... 🐰
Primark do great running ankle socks which contain no cotton, targeted cushioning and arch support, and they are by far the cheapest cotton-free sport socks I've ever seen at around 3 for £5. For above the ankle socks I like Nike dry fit
I exclusively use some sports socks from Aldi which look very similar to the Inov8 ones you review. I use them for both cycling and running and have never had any feet issues. Well worth a look when they are in stock.
5:35 I do the same thing with clipping my ankles with the opposite foot. A few times I really cut my ankle by doing that. So easy solution, when I run I wear like 2-inch socks.
Pretty new to running - still working through my C25K - but I've been using Thorlos Expedia socks (very cushioned) and Steigen socks which are much thinner - they're an Australian brand too which I like. Love the content you guys, it's been super inspirational and informative - keep it coming!
The trick is to find a good sock for each sneaker you own. Some of my sneakers are ok with no shows and some I've found out the hard way aren't and need an ankle sock ✌️
Great tip! And absolutely true... sometimes I find my trail shoes rub my feet differently than my road shoes so I need blister socks for one and not the other. Thanks for sharing 😊
I'm with Andy here, I have both his top picks both ace for ultra distance in the fells..nice and comfy and I've never had a blister off either... good vid guys... some of my pals use the Drymax range and love them.
This video made me realise that running socks was the one part of my running equipment itinerary that has been lacking - I’ve just a pair of Kalenji and generic sports socks. Ordered the Hilly Socklets and Enertor off the back of this video, fingers (or toes?) crossed they make a difference.
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).
LOLed at the sock puppets! Would have been fine if they’d presented the entire video😉 I’m partial to Bombas performance running socks myself-they come in a wide variety of lengths and colors. My favorite are the calf length…just the right amount of cushion and they stay super soft wash after wash, run after run!
Hahaha! Love the opening! I work at a running store so this was really interesting! We carry Balega, Feetures and stance. It was cool seeing the other brands, could you do one where you review Feetures and Stance? Those are my personal favorites, feetures just fit well and stance because they have a wide variety of patterns
I like my Darn Toughs. I'm not a big fan of my Feetures, in part because they feel a little tight for my liking but also because I don't care for the anatomical fit. I often get ready in the dark, so having to figure out which sock for which foot gets annoying.
After getting blisters I became a fan of twin skin socks, I tried the Hilly and like Andy said found I had to work at keeping wrinkles out. Last couple of years I have found the Karrimor Duo Skin two layer socks to be just right for me.
Great Video. I live in Thailand and the only one they sell from your video here is balega. But i personally run in Compressport, Falke and injinji. Socks are very important for me as Thailand has very very hot and humid weather and blister pop up easily.
Over the calf, long compression socks for me in summer, regular sport socks in winter when I’m running in leggings (Canadian winter running sub 30 temps at the coldest)
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).
Otter waterproof socks are great if you’re a muddy trail runner. I stood in the shower with them on after a long muddy run to clean the mud off, then took them off……dry feet!!!!! Mad, but brilliant. Definitely a mid winter sock though. I’m happy with karrimor ones from sports direct year round. Cheaper and comfy.
Socks are very much a personal matter a bit like saddles ! Stance do offer some different thickness and you omitted some of the best makes like Compressport, Odlo or X-Socks which provide some highly technical products
I really like the grip6 overland not tried them in the flesh but I have something similar in a hiking sock and I have had these for over twenty years and they are still in really good condition.
Ah so great timing for our video! Thanks for watching - hope you found some good tips 😊

“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 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.
I swear by On Running or SOAR socks, not cheap but really good. inov8 race elite are excellent for trail runs and I got no blisters on a 75 mile ultra in atrocious weather
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 at some point saw a lot of ads for Rockay socks. Would be interesting to know if they are as good as they say they are. I'm currently just using some cheap pair of compression socks I found in Lidl.
I try not to overthink my sock choice, long runs go with 1000 mile twin skin anklet socks, other runs vary between Nike or ASICS or Adidas, first pair that come to hand from the pile. Got a pair of no show socks Stance feel360 that are marked l &r and they're fine, guy in shop raved about them but they're not running for me or anything lol
I like the runderwear cushioning ones but they don't wear/wash well over time. Mine have totally worn down under the ball of my foot unusually fast. My stance socks in comparison show no wear and tear.
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.
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?
Eh, honestly I use the cheapest running socks I can get. JackRabbit (a running store chain in the US) sells big packs of them, and I found a big pack of Adidas ones for cheap. Never let me down. No chafing, blisters, messed up toenails, etc. But note I do use running socks, not, say, baseball socks or general athletic socks.
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.
Thanks so much for watching! Yes socks for running can have features that you don't get with normal / walking socks, including cushioning support. It's worth testing a pair out 😊
What’s your favourite pair of running socks? Have you been inspired to buy a couple of new pairs? Are there any amazing socks that we’ve left out? We want to hear from you in the comments below 👇
I'm using Thorlos socks for long runs. Combined with bodyglide I haven't had any blister issues.
Rockay accelerate socks, fantastic no blister socks and lived up to their lifetime warranty when when developed a small hole!
Craft Core Dry, Injinjis & Steigens for me...
I like Wrightsocks. Been wearing them for years. They are double-layered but without having to line up the insides. Never had a blister with them.
Rockay socks are by far the best i have 👏🏻
Injinji toe socks are my absolute fave, followed by the belega socks for shorter runs 😊
That's great Chloe! Thanks for watching 😊
I love my injinji's when on trail!
Injinji all the way from ultra light road socks to warm woolly trail socks never any blisters and of course allows you to were Vibram Fivefingers too!
Ah now that's a great shout, Nik! Thanks for sharing 😊
*”wear”
Injinji toe socks far and away favourites. Always wear toe socks (of different brands) and can confirm they aren’t any more difficult to put on than a glove once you’re used to them, and they are great for those that would otherwise get blisters on toes
Good to know!
I agree, Injinji toe socks are great as I always used to get blisters from my toes rubbing together on longer runs, especially when running it wet conditions.
Not any more! :-)
Thanks for sharing Adele! Great to hear they work well for you 😊
Also the Injinji have such cool designs !
Injinji and Xoskin toesocks. I never get blisters up to 100 mile trail races. I think the key is keeping toes from rubbing each other and it splays your toes apart
Great to know - thanks for sharing 😊
I still need to tape my little toe as there is no running shoe in existence that is wide enough for my toes.
Toe socks, preferably Injinji but I also have the hilly, saves my toes from getting a smashing.
I have injinji myself and they work great, no blisters no smashing ups ..Will try the Hilly toe ones ! Thx
@@CorneliaAB They're a bit thicker, and come up a bit smaller, but are better cushioned.
Both are excellent either way.
@@Huxley555 cheers !
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.
Thanks so much for sharing - we'll have to check this brand out for sure 😊
Watching a 14 minute video about socks. Yes, I’m definitely a runner! I like the Hilly Twin Skin to prevent blisters and rubbing but like the look of the Zouma’s.
I am only in the intro... you get a like for it! Andy's reaction on the puns is priceless!
Haha yes it was hilarious 😂. Thanks for watching!
Intro was heelarious 🤣🤣🤣
Haha - glad you liked it!
It was a huge sockcess
I know right; it was toe good! 😂👍🏼
Injinji socks all the way! 😁
Plenty of different lengths and weights for every type of run and runner. 👍
Haha please, Andy's a dad, this isn't his first sock puppet rodeo! Also, Feetures socks are the bees knees.
Haha I think you're right Arielle! Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching 😊

Great tip, Marc! Thank you 😊
Oops. You forgot to include the *best* running socks 😬 Injinji 👌🏼
Whoops! We'll definitely add those to the list for next time 😊
The intro absolutely MADE the video, loved it!
I use Injinji five finger socks, the best choice for me ;)
For me it’s the Injinji toe socks, maybe a little bit of a faff to get on but zero toe issues, lightweight and comfy and even better if you walk without shoes on as it feels like walking barefoot after a long run

And even better if you walk/run with neither shoes nor socks (i. e., literally barefoot).

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.

Love the intro :)). I use socks from Decathlon and toe socks from Injiji. Interesting picks for presentation. Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Love Anna’s humor. It always makes me. 😁
Primark do great running ankle socks which contain no cotton, targeted cushioning and arch support, and they are by far the cheapest cotton-free sport socks I've ever seen at around 3 for £5. For above the ankle socks I like Nike dry fit
I've got the Primark ones and they are really good for the price!
Please, do make a video about compression socks!
Thanks for the suggestion Gee!

Thanks for sharing this Leon! Great tip 😊
Aldi, the grocery store?
@@carmenespinosa6423 Yep!
5:35 I do the same thing with clipping my ankles with the opposite foot. A few times I really cut my ankle by doing that. So easy solution, when I run I wear like 2-inch socks.
Ouch! Yes, definitely a good idea to wear higher socks. Thanks for watching 😊
Toe-socks (e. g., Injinji®) with Coolmax®.
Pretty new to running - still working through my C25K - but I've been using Thorlos Expedia socks (very cushioned) and Steigen socks which are much thinner - they're an Australian brand too which I like. Love the content you guys, it's been super inspirational and informative - keep it coming!
Good stuff Steve! Glad you're enjoying the videos and all the best with your training 😊

Glad the video was helpful Christopher! Let us know how you get on with the Hilly's and Enertor's 😊
Great to see the Balega. Been using them as they are from South Africa. Interesting fact Balega is the Zulu word for run or running.
I enjoy running in Bombas running socks. They feel good on my feet and come in some nifty designs.
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).
Any show that starts with sock puppets is a winner in my book.
LOLed at the sock puppets! Would have been fine if they’d presented the entire video😉 I’m partial to Bombas performance running socks myself-they come in a wide variety of lengths and colors. My favorite are the calf length…just the right amount of cushion and they stay super soft wash after wash, run after run!
So glad you enjoyed it Lisa! We did think about sock puppets the whole way through - trust me! 😂

That's great Tatiana! Thanks so much for sharing and we'll definitely look into these for future round-ups 😊
My current favs are Feetures and also Saysky Low Combat socks for racing.
Darn tough and Feetures are my go to. Both have lifetime warranties, fit my feet, lite weight.
Feetures is my preferred brand too.
I like my Darn Toughs. I'm not a big fan of my Feetures, in part because they feel a little tight for my liking but also because I don't care for the anatomical fit. I often get ready in the dark, so having to figure out which sock for which foot gets annoying.
@@ErikHawkinson Yes I have had that struggle too. I save my Feetures for evening runs when I am more likely to get it them on correctly.
@@Michelle-sd6ee yeah, it's not so bad right now because the sun is usually up by the time I leave for my run but it's killer over winter mornings.
I always trust your reviews. I'll get myself some good running socks 😍💪❤❤
After getting blisters I became a fan of twin skin socks, I tried the Hilly and like Andy said found I had to work at keeping wrinkles out. Last couple of years I have found the Karrimor Duo Skin two layer socks to be just right for me.
Another vote for injinji socks here. Never had a blister.
Great to hear!
*Darn Tough* for everyday wear and short runs, and *Injinji* toe socks for the longer and swampier runs when toe blisters are more likely to form.
Great Video. I live in Thailand and the only one they sell from your video here is balega. But i personally run in Compressport, Falke and injinji. Socks are very important for me as Thailand has very very hot and humid weather and blister pop up easily.
Thanks for sharing Stefan! Good to hear you've found something that works well for you 😊
Azengear make awesome socks! They are really good for running.
Over the calf, long compression socks for me in summer, regular sport socks in winter when I’m running in leggings (Canadian winter running sub 30 temps at the coldest)

Favorite running socks Salomon Nso Long Run Socks, a bit expensive, but no blisters or hot spots ;)
Ah great shout Aline! Thanks for sharing 😊
Surprised Rockay aren’t in there, I find them great for long runs and have never had blisters with them.
Thanks for sharing this Sarah! We'll look into including them for our next round up 😊
Incylence running socks. Simply awesome.
The prices you gave are sometimes for a pair, for two pairs or three pairs...
I really like the grip6 overland not tried them in the flesh but I have something similar in a hiking sock and I have had these for over twenty years and they are still in really good condition.
Injinji toe socks are best. No need to look further.
Thanks for sharing 😊
I 2nd this. Brilliant socks.
Awesome socks but hard work to change when your tired and have wet feet.
@@Nbstevens78 just grab each tip and pull it a little. Then grab all 5 and pull the sock off. But yeah its a little annoying :-) but worth it.
@mw99ch @therunningchannel I agree!
Love the intro and ending :)
Would like to ask does the sock material matter, if yes, how? Thanks
I’d imagine something with more of a cotton would absorb moisture which we don’t want
Was actually trying to figure out what new socks to get myself. I like Quarter socks, but I like having decent padding as well.
Ah so great timing for our video! Thanks for watching - hope you found some good tips 😊
“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.
This is true, no show for road, longer for trails is generally how I play it
Great tip! I also love gaiters for dry trails!
- Mary
Rick has got to be kicking himself for missing the sock puppets...seems right up his alley :)
Haha yes very true , Tim!
I loved the beginning. 🤣
We couldn't resist 😂
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.
I'm surprised there's no socks from Compress Sport. Pro racing socks v3.0 Run are my fave.
You missed Versus socks and they come in funky colours as well 🧦 🧦 🧦
Thanks for the tip! We'll check these out for the next round-up 😊
My favourite socks are the quarter socks from Rockay.
ive watched alot of sock videos and never seen compressport socks, socks with pressure dots. ive found some off this video ive ordered however.
I swear by On Running or SOAR socks, not cheap but really good. inov8 race elite are excellent for trail runs and I got no blisters on a 75 mile ultra in atrocious weather
Thanks for sharing that Martin - good to know 😊
Am not too fussed over socks I use hilly, 1000 mile more mile and Contra socks all good... All feel comfy in my Brooks..
Balega Hidden Comfort, and Balega's thinner socks too. A few dozen pairs in the last 5 years.
I just bought a pair of the Balega Hidden Comfort, and I agree they're great!
I’ve been using 1000 Mile classic double layer anklets forever. Can’t imagine using anything else.
I'm doing fine with the stuff from Decathlon.
Great! Thanks so much for watching 😊
How about Nike? Multiplier vs Spark vs Spark Lightweight? Ankle vs no show and black or white too if your shoes are black and care about fashion too
I love my Stance socks and if you're in to 'loud' socks then they do them too!
Ah great! Thanks for sharing Scott! How loud are we talking here?
@@runningchannel Dennis Nerdy's shirt from Jurassic Park loud. Think they've got a pair for the new Space Jam movie too.
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.
Ah that's a really good shout - thanks for sharing!
Love Steigen socks ❤️❤️❤️
Love Features !!
I love my Inov8 Merino wool socks.
Great to hear Mark! Thanks for watching 😊
I at some point saw a lot of ads for Rockay socks. Would be interesting to know if they are as good as they say they are. I'm currently just using some cheap pair of compression socks I found in Lidl.

Got a pair of no show socks Stance feel360 that are marked l &r and they're fine, guy in shop raved about them but they're not running for me or anything lol
Give Bombas a try
I like the runderwear cushioning ones but they don't wear/wash well over time. Mine have totally worn down under the ball of my foot unusually fast. My stance socks in comparison show no wear and tear.
I'm looking for thin socks for my derby skates. I have a tight fitting boot and can't fit cushion socks.
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.
Thanks for sharing Bradley 😊
Rovkay are a great sock
Hey what about Feetures?
I've been using Danish Endurance socks for the last 18 months or so and I've yet to have a blister.
Great to know, April! Thanks for the suggestion!
FEETURES socks beat my Under Armour socks except in price. No more blisters. I have to wait for special sales.
My absolute favorites are FITSOK, I do prefer a cushioned sock.
Thanks for sharing Marie!
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
That's great Luca! Thanks for watching 😊
Hanes for me all day !!!!!!!
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?
Eh, honestly I use the cheapest running socks I can get. JackRabbit (a running store chain in the US) sells big packs of them, and I found a big pack of Adidas ones for cheap. Never let me down. No chafing, blisters, messed up toenails, etc.
But note I do use running socks, not, say, baseball socks or general athletic socks.
By the way, your video production has continued to improve. It's really excellent!
And scooters and small dogs are dangerous, OK?
I get a basic 5 pack of socks for $6 at the local shop. I could never justify spending $5, $10, $20 or more on a pair of socks for running
I love Steigen's!!
Wondered if anyone would mention these. Just found them. Great colors.
Running sock buying is a blumming nightmare, I always end up with different sizes one (L)arge and one (R)egular 😉😂😂😂
Hahahaha! Me too! What are the chances?! 😂😂😂
Socks should reflect their owners, so mine are loud, colourful and garish 😁 my favourites are Steigens 🧦
“Form over function”
Love that Donal! Great choice 😊
Feetrures are amazing for running while trying to tame plantar fasciitis

I am just running in regular socks. (STAPP-branded walking socks with coolmax fibre). Is a specific running sock really that different ?
Thanks so much for watching! Yes socks for running can have features that you don't get with normal / walking socks, including cushioning support. It's worth testing a pair out 😊
I swear by Balegas. I have never gotten a blister in them. And I was prone to blistering before.
Great to know Michael! Thanks for watching 😊
