InjinjiMen's Run Midweight No Show Toesocks

Pros: Excellent blister prevention; well constructed; high longevity; true to size; prevents re-emergence of Athletes foot (fungal infections between toes); prevents foot fatigue and promotes healthier foot anatomy. Cons: Pricey; difficult to put on / remove, especially in humid climates; not for everyone ( see Suggestions); people look at you funny when you take your shoes off in the TSA line. Bottom line: Best socks I've ever used. Neither my wife nor son could get used to them, though. Suggestions: As a staff nurse in a busy hospital, I'm on my feet for 13 hours a day. There's a lot of strong scientific research about the benefits of this sock type which I encourage the reader to independently investigate. This style of sock promotes the natural splay (abduction) of one's toes, particularly the outer two toes, while walking; this ensures evenly distributed pressure across the ball of the foot. The result is better foot bone alignment and small foot muscle strengthening for less foot fatigue, better arch support, and lower risk for plantar fasciitis. Plan on 2-3 weeks to get used to these socks as they feel very, very weird at first. After that, regular socks will feel weird and uncomfortable. Since wearing this style of sock, I've not had a reoccurrence of Athletes foot, blisters, or callouses; this is due to better moisture control by having each toe surrounded by fabric and superlative friction control by the form-fitting nature of the sock. Most importantly, my feet don't ache nearly as much as they did with regular socks at shift's end.

I have a pinkie toe on one foot that slightly curves underneath the fourth toe, and Injinji socks have always worked well for preventing blisters and keeping my toes splaying naturally. In addition to that necessity for me, I've been impressed with the fabric quality and construction of these socks. They're a bit challenging to put on, but I highly recommend them for people who might need some support or control for their toes.For those that might not be particularly familiar with Injinji, this midweight fabric is their thickest level of padding. That said, it is not a heavily-padded sock; thicker fabric would not be practical with the toe pockets. Consider "midweight" to be in relation to other socks rather than within the brand. I would not recommend these if you want a truly padded sock.The sizing seems quite accurate. I typically wear a 10.5 in normal shoes - expanding to an 11 for running shoes - and the medium (M) size fits perfectly.

I am sold on these "toe socks" I have not tried any other brand (Are there other brands?), but I don't see why I ever would. Maybe my toe problems just went away because my toes finally caught up to my increased running miles, maybe it was these socks that helped. Either way they feel great in my running shoes, plus I can use them with my flip flops after a run (when it might be a bit cold to be completely barefoot). I bought 1 pair of each of the weight of the running socks, and 1 pair of the original weight. The light weight and original weight are my favorites, at the moment. Love 'em.

Love these Five Toe socks.. wear them everyday. After a dog walk in my New Balance All Terrain shoes, I slip on my Reefs around the house. These socks rock.

Live these socks and seller was quick and efficient. I have bought more since initial purchase.

These socks are exactly like what you’d buy from Walmart. Soft and very cushioned. So they are fine for wearing with barefoot shoes or any other shoes. However if you are looking for real injinji socks these are not it. These are a fake. I bought them to wear with my VFF’s and they are so thick they won’t even fit inside my shoes. Back to barefoot for me.

I got 2 pair of Injinji "toe socks" for Christmas -- one lightweight no show wool and the other a midweight no show. These socks cost much more per pair than I'm used to paying -- but the benefit to me is worth it. If they "hold up" -- and I will use them only for running -- then I will absolutely transition to using only these socks for running.I had been getting a blister / callous on one of my toes, no matter which running shoes I wore. With the Injinji socks (either pair), that problem does not occur. Blister management is a huge pain, so having a method to avoid blisters is amazing.This is a product I highly recommend that anyone suffering from toe blisters from running should try.

I have some Adidas Adipure Trainer 1.1s that I wear to the gym and unless you wear socks with them (as with any toe shoes), you need to wash them semi frequently. As a result I've explored some of Injinji's prior year options and they didn't form fit as well or felt too thick for midweight. I still wore them, but sometimes I wouldn't because they weren't perfect.I like these a lot, I wear both the lightweight and the midweight socks and find them really comfortable, resilient in the wash, and the right size (I'm an 11 shoe in almost everything). That and they look better than the older ones. I'm a fan and ordered a bunch of these.

Great

Molto comodi, non ho più avuto problemi di ciocche

Realmente ayudan a evitar las ampollas al correr entre los dedos de los pies... recomendación, a mi me funcionan mejor que la versión más ligera, para evitar también ampollas en la planta del pie.

Nulla da dire! Ottime calze. Io le uso per fare cammini molto lunghi (Santiago, Francigena ecc...) e sono davvero comodi lasciando (con bune scarpe) respirare il piede e tenere separate le dita che con lo sfregamento possono dare problemi.

I wear the Injini bamboo socks as boot liners and I love them.I got these to wear with my trainers when out walking but I find they don't stay on properly.I have to keep fiddelling with them to pull them up as they slide down into my shoes.They also make your feet quite hot in the summer.Wouldn't buy again.
