The company also knits an extra deep heel pocket ensuring that each sock fits the foot perfectly and does not slide down during a run. Designed with a medium volume construction.

The best athletic socks I've ever worn.
Every time I have to plunk down $20 for these socks, I get sticker shock. But I have to say these socks are well worth it. They are so comfortable -- I don't even know I'm wearing them. They've got the right amount of cushioning and stretch, all in the right places. They fit my feet (size 7 women) perfectly. I never get sweaty feet (just the rest of me). I can play or run in these in all conditions. I have no idea how much science goes into these socks, but it must be significant, because they are perfect (at least for me). They look nice too, although I wish they had more colors...

Marathon(s) Tested, amazing sock!
So far 2 marathon's in these socks! Balega's are a game-changer! From the moment I slipped them on, I could feel the difference in comfort and support. They provide just the right amount of cushioning without being too bulky, and the moisture-wicking fabric keeps my feet dry throughout long runs. Plus, the snug fit prevents any annoying slipping or bunching. Highly recommend for anyone serious about their running game! They still look great, and are holding up after 2 marathons!Some reasons why I have been recommending them to other runners are:* Superior comfort: These socks offer exceptional comfort from the moment you put them on.* Optimal support: They provide the perfect balance of cushioning and support for long-distance running.* Moisture-wicking: The moisture-wicking fabric keeps your feet dry and comfortable, even during intense workouts.* Snug fit: Enjoy a secure fit that prevents slipping and bunching, ensuring a distraction-free run.* Durable construction: These socks are built to last, making them a reliable choice for marathon runners.* Overall recommendation: Highly recommended for serious runners seeking quality performance and comfort.

Best running socks
I absolutely love these socks for running. They provide some compression, prevent blisters, have good breathability, and won’t slide down. They are a bit pricey, but I’ve had my pairs for quite some while. They hold up very well and are durable. Worth the investment in my opinion and true to size. Has some stretch too.

Not quite blister resist for my very sweaty feet
Not quite blister resist, but still a really nice sock! 3.5 stars. I tried these on a through hike alongside Balega Enduro (basically the same sock but thinner), wearing them with Brooks cascadia shoes for about 8-14 mile days on varied terrain. They were great til I got hot and my feet sweat a lot. These definitely are amazingly cushiony and I didn’t get any blisters— til my feet started getting saturated with sweat, and the thickness of the socks didn’t allow them to dry quickly or evenly, inside my shoes or when pinned to the outside of my pack. However, the blisters I did get were smaller and way more manageable than with any other type of sock, and after I covered the blisters, the cushion of these socks was very welcome. So even if you do get blisters with these, it might be a better situation than another sock?Overall these still work great for other purposes and shorter hikes on colder days, and these would probably be ideal to wear with boots. Also my feet sweat quite a lot, so if you’re not on a long hike with very sweaty feet you might expect better results for the blister resist part.They’ve held up nicely in the laundry and have had no issues with pilling, the seam and weave are all tight and high quality. Good value for the money.

Perfect for track and cross country
My son started using these for track. He loves them. He doesn't get blisters anymore and they help with soreness. We bought several pairs

Worth the money! Best exercise socks
I buy 1-2 pairs every year to replace worn out pairs. They last me 4-5 years and I wear each pair 2 times per week. Yes they’re a bit pricey but you absolutely get what you pay for! They don’t stretch out over time, I’ve never had one get a hole and when I replace it’s because the fabric has work thin.
