Normally I would not spend $20 on one pair of socks
However these things are great! I read reviews in Runners World and they highly recommend these socks. Now I recommend them too! They are cushioned, fit well and are very supportive. Best part is my feet are still dry when I run. These socks are so good at wicking that the first time I washed them they were literally dry coming out of the washer. Great choice if you want a great sock.

Recommended socks for minimal to no blistering for heavy runners.
I am 5’ 10” 210lbs and blister with any cotton or polyester socks. I’ve worn Hoka Clifton 9, Nike Alphafly 3 and Nike Vomero 18 without any luck. Until I purchased these socks. Really comfortable for long runs with minimal blistering, but it just seems like there’s no way around it. However, I still recommend these pair as they are the best I’ve worn yet.

Great running socks
I run 30 miles a month. Mostly in the range of 2-6 miles per run. I've tried just about every sock on the planet and these are among the best (up there with Smart Wool, Darn Tough, and Feetures which are also excellent). They are well padded, soft, and they just feel great to run in. I also use them at the gym and they shine there as well. If you're in the market for a great pair of socks, these fit the bill.

Soft, Snug, and Great for Training
I own a few Blister Resist quarter socks and love their thickness and compression. These are softer and less compressive but still fit snug and very comfortable. I have five pairs and use them for both weightlifting and spin cycling. Definitely recommend them.

Breathable, Comfortable Best Running Sock
I love these socks and have worn them for years. This style doesn't sell on Amazon often so I snagged a pair at a nicely discounted price. The vendor took a very long time to ship but I've got them now. They are my favorites and buy a pair if you can. I wear a large on a male 9.5 US foot.

Possible recent changes in stitching or sizing
I'm writing this just because I have size 14 feet and had previously worn the XL size and they were amazing. I recently purchased more and were a bit difficult to put on as some of the way the stitching was done seemed to dig into the top of my foot. I checked a few pairs out of the bunch I ordered and it was the same thing. Having said that, the quality is obviously still there and I gave them to somebody with slightly smaller feet and they love them. Just unfortunate that is the largest size they make so I'll now have to find another brand.

Good Fit and Good Thickness (For Me).
A good medium weight sock with a solid snug fit. I got Size L and wear 11.5 shoes. This sock has been good for all distances from short (5k) to long (26.2).
