@@gosekinz Intersesting! Never heard of them and thanks to your comment I looked them up and am intrigued. I see they have a (big-toe) 2 toe sock and also a 5 toe sock. I'm curious about the 2 toe sock. Is that one you tried?
@@jefreywith1f924 I just use the regular 5 toe version - the split toe one I haven't see for racing/ running - but I don't bother looking. I recommend the 5 toe version.
@@gosekinz Thanks! I like Injinji because of the toe splay but I also like other socks too because of the extra arch support. This toe sock seems to offer that plus a silicone bottom for less slippage. Pricey but if their durable enough, I might have to give them a try.
Feetures for me every time. Good arch support, seamless, right and left specific, and a range of light, max cushioned and merino. The best thing i can say is i actually don't notice them when running which is perfect.
Kieran, I live in the USA and I ordered 4 pairs of the Brav running socks. I have to say that I absolutely LOVE them!!! Great fit, terrific styling, and just the right comfort level! Thanks for letting us know about them! I’ll be ordering more 👍👍
should give Rockay a try. i love their socks. snug fit and do no stretch over time. i have been using the same 5 pairs for 3+years and they still feel brand new. They are also sustainable which is a lovely cherry on the cake!
Feetures Elite Mini Crew socks have been a game changer for me, not just in running but in everyday use too. Never had a single blister and I can literally wear them all day without any issues, despite me being a heavy sweater. Love them so much I replaced all my other socks with them haha
I support that. Tried one, got 6 more. No show Ultra light ones are best for warm humid summer. Mid cushion are great for now. They don't move, don't rub and get out like new from washing machine.
I have 1 pair decathlon 5finger socks bought 2yrs ago. theyre also a lil compressive. Still have it till today, but somehow i couldnt find it now at decathlon. I also rock 5fingers Injinji and Aonijie. 5finger styles dont cause blisters for me
I’d give a mention for DryMax Cold Weather socks for anyone like me who suffers with very cold feet in winter (I have cold feet most of the year to be honest). These are the best socks I’ve found that are designed for running that are warm and don’t cause me problems. Clearly not for people with sweaty feet!
First time watching this video. You've got to do a better job at making the recommendations searchable. Put it in the text of the page description, name the chapters the sock, or just use affiliate links.
It has taken me years to find the right socks..for me socks are just as important as shoes if you want to really enjoy running as the distance gets longer..I have all the ones you have are showing..but I think the real ticket is thin and the thread count ..the only sock I will use for racing is steigan..they will not absorb moisture..moisture is the main reason for blisters..
Feetures. Love them. The top. I have one pair of Balega and of CEP, too. Tried OS1st recently. Need a slightly smaller size to fit great. One last thing-I hate crazy looking socks/shoes. A reflective strip is good, but ugly, clashing colors and prints stay at the store.
Question, what's a recommendation for very thin socks to wear with spikes? I'd go sockless but there's a bit of rubbing that a thin sock would fix, and there isn't much room!
I enjoy Azengear compression socks and calf sleeves for running. They provide good support and definitely speed up the recovery process after exercise. Highly recommend trying out azengear calf sleeves for running 👍
I feel that toe socks divide the crowd, you either love them or hate them. I’ve tried some (not Injinji it must be said) and don’t get on with them. Trying to get my crooked toes into toe socks is like trying to put proper gloves onto an impatient 4 year old! Don’t get me wrong here, I’m not disagreeing with you, just saying they don’t work for everyone
I love Injiji socks. It's just a matter of habit. For example, I had problems with the Asics Novablast 3 because they were bothering me in the front at the toes somewhere under the sole. With Injiji, it's solved
I have Smartwool and CEP socks. It's about 26-30 Celsius when i go running. CEP is fantastic, but sometimes causes me to get hotspots. Smartwool feels great, even when drenched. They also wick the sweat out pretty fast when i take a short break. I had Nike and Adidas before, but especially the Nikes were not great for me. Felt too plastic/sweaty. Adidas standard running socks felt good, but they wore out pet fast (8 months or so)
What are your go-to running socks? We want to hear...
100% Injinji
I use and recommend Tabio - I will not run in anything else - think Injinji but with more sports science

Love Brav socks, bought a box of 5 after your last video, and just ordered another 10 pairs, wear them daily, to save changing when running.
I really like Balega and just bought 5 more pairs but about to try my first Stance socks so excited to try this brand.
All about Stance socks for me. Feel great, some nice designs and they have been really durable too.

Decathlon Kiprun 900 thick strap socks 👌
Zero issues with these and super comfortable on feet.
I like the Belaga blister resist socks, but they can be a little itchy in really hot weather.

Love this. Regular / running sock separation. Keep it simple.
Same experience for me. Love them.
What level cushion? Max, light or ultra light? Thanks!
@@williamhunt7997 they come in all three

Big fan of Bombas running sucks, especially the merino wool ones with colder weather coming on. Not sure if you can get them outside of the US though.
Love Steigen socks!!
I got some Incylence - they are V cool - going to try them in a race tomorrow.
👍👍 Let us know how you get on!
@@TheRunTesters 10K PB, 100% down to sock choice obvs.
I really enjoy Compressport ones, have several pairs, no issues so far.
Injiji is the best! By the fact that the toes are separated, it gives you comfort and stability, because the toes are not piled on top of each other.
Incylence socks all the way . Every triathlon winner would agree 👍

Steigan socks have been my go to this year
Got some of these inbound for testing. Lured by the snazzy patterns. But hoping they perform well too.
Very good thin socks and so many great designs
@@TheRunTesters I find the Steigan socks are similar to the Brav socks. Two great brands!

I always enjoy a good sock vid. Kieran needs to use a different camera because his text is backwards. I suspect he used a selfie camera.
I need compression socks or else I get Shin splints and the best I found (yet) is 2XU Vectr light cush.
Wright socks are my favorites. USA company that does it “Wright”!
It has taken me years to find the right socks..for me socks are just as important as shoes if you want to really enjoy running as the distance gets longer..I have all the ones you have are showing..but I think the real ticket is thin and the thread count ..the only sock I will use for racing is steigan..they will not absorb moisture..moisture is the main reason for blisters..
steigen socks. Super comfy, lightweight and breathable. Plus they have some pretty cool designs too
Feetures socks lots of good options varying thickness lengths and materials.
Tracksmith Speed Crew are the best for races. For reflectivity I love Saysky Reflective High Combat Socks.
My favorites are the Lululemon Macropillow socks. They’re very light, supportive, and comfortable.
Steigen and Incylence. Recently got a pair of Brav too and looking forward to trying them 👍🏻
Love the Stance socks but I wear the quarter cut ones.
Nice. Do you train and race in the same ones?
@@TheRunTesters I have done yes.
decathlon kiprun Mid RUN500, Mid RUN900
Feetures. Love them. The top.

Just to clarify, I tend to prefer a thinner sock and the Brav socks are perfect for me!
What about Nike ranig?
Nike socks suck!! Get Stance or CEP !

Sidas et BV sport
Most people wear ankle-no show socks to run in. Right?
