Hey before I pull the trigger, how is the sizing on these? I wear a 14 shoe so I'm about to buy the XL but those "extended sizing" socks you see for "shoe sizes 13-16" are always too large. The heal will be half way up my ankle even though my shoe size is right in the middle. Are these the same?

I wear these socks for marathons too and they have 100% resolved all blisters in marathons and ultras. It keeps the toes from rubbing on each other. |

Awesome deal. Have just been thinking I needed to get more of these. I wear my VFF's to work, so I wear these socks (actually the crew length which are also on sale) with them.
Thanks OP! I'm in for 9 (enough to get free shipping). I don't wear socks with the shoes I work out in, and the stink something bad. Washing them reduces the smell, but it doesn't go away completely. |

I have a pair of these and don't own any toe shoes. I wear mine with flip flops when it is cold out and I still want to wear flip flops. Mine have held up just fine and are good quality. My only issue with them is how much longer it takes to put these on than regular socks. Of course, it would probably help if I had an easier time reaching my toes in the first place...

Here is another reason for buying these toe-glove socks. At first I wondered who would need socks like these, but these socks are a godsend for those who have athletes foot as they wick moisture away in between the toes where it can get fiercely itchy. Ask any ex-military personnel or hikers who wore boots on the ground for hours, sometimes days, on end and many have had some mild case of athletes foot. These socks help alleviate some of the itching by keeping the space between your toes dry.
Also Injinji make good quality socks that will not wear-out too quickly. All socks will wear thin after multiple washings over time (yes even Thorlos), but I've noticed the cheaper the socks the quicker the holes appear and less likely to maintain its shape. So cheap socks are generally not a good value over time. Pinching pennies on certain types of merchandise is certainly this Slickdealers' way of life, but on footwear and socks I never compromise. Get the best (not necessarily the most expensive) quality pair of shoes and socks for your particular feet. Take care of your feet and your feet will...well you know... |
