    I tried bombas, they felt too slick in my shoes and would twist on my foot a lot. They were the running style though. I have stance medium cushioning athletic socks now which are working for me. I found that no dryer when washing my socks now was really important. Keeps them in good shape

    I wear 3/4 length a lot but my go to is the crew length for protection against impact or scrapes against my skin and I also have a plate and screws in my ankle so that padding is good against bumps or hits.

    Drinking game, every time Zach says Bombas take a shot!
    I like crews, but even the bombas have trouble staying up on my calves/knankles. Going to try some ankle ones next but not sure how I feel about that height. I do like the freer feeling of the no shows, but some shoes I have don't work well with them.

    I only wear Basketball crew socks or Nike Elite NBA Grip mids. ...I've had heel issues with a certain shoe I probably should stop playing in but the sock I was wearing got wet and slippery causing painful big blisters which forced me to cut my basketball workout short by about 20-30min..The Sock I was wearing was thew Point 3 Impact crew mid. I was fine until they got all soaked up..My workouts go 2 hrs but this time I had to stop as I was getting hobbled. What sock works best for heel rubbing or what sock has the best heel and achilles padding...that's what I need for the heavy barefoot feeling Harden 5 hoop shoes I'm wearing for outdoor rn...also sized too snug for me (9.5 instead of my normal 10.5 - narrow skinny foot) . I was thinking either get some good tennis socks but I don't know much about what socks are ideal for my situation.

    Interesting to hear, I've been wearing mid-socks since crew socks just felt like more work and harder to put on, though I also haven't tried crew socks that actually are for my feet size which might be a contributing factor. How important is making sure the socks you buy are listed as actually fitting?

    I'm not clear on what the difference is between @bombas2726 tennis-specific socks and all the fun looking ones. I'd much rather use socks with Cookie Monster on them if I have the choice without sacrificing the practical aspects of the sock for tennis.

    • @djgulia3656
      @djgulia3656 ปีที่แล้ว

      For the ankle socks, the tops are different. The tennis and running ankle socks have an extra tab on the front of the ankle, and the back tab is flat rather than rolled. I pretty much only wear Bombas socks, and prefer the tennis/running vs others as they are better at not shifting around on my foot.

    Incorrect on the aerodynamics of no-show versus crew socks. Crew socks are not less aerodynamic. You should go read about cyclists as they understand aero and socks
