Injinji Toe Socks
I’ve seen the Injinji Toe Socks at trail running events and all sorts of other places for some time now, but have never gotten the opportunity to give them a whirl. And give them a whirl is exactly what I did.
I’ve ran, hiked, and biked with the Injinji Toe Socks (or Tsocks, if you prefer), and love ‘em. No complaints. Think of them like a glove for your foot, a really comfy glove that wicks moisture. They are made with CoolMax, so you know your tootsies will breathe well. The Toe Socks are seamless; don’t worry about developing a hotspot because of stitching. In fact, these babies eliminated a blister problem that I’ve had between a couple of my toes while on long hikes.
The Injinji Toe Socks are thin, and fit well in lightweight trail runners. If you have shoes that don’t have much interior volume to spare, then these are the socks for you. Injinji offers toe socks for a wide array of outdoor activies, yoga, and travel – they even have a CoolMax EcoMade performance version as well.
These are some serious technical socks – leaps and bounds above the nasty ‘ol cotton tube that you might still be sliding your foot into now. Put them on like you would a glove, pulling it on and fitting it around each toe.
How much does it cost to wrap your feet in some Injinji toesocks? Twelve bucks will get you the performance series sock in micro, mini-crew, or crew – a small price to pay for a whole lotta comfort and additional blister protection, if you ask me.
Get yourself a dozen or so pairs (and send me some too) from Injinji.com.
