Running socks 

The best running socks? That depends on your personal preferences, the type of run, the weather, the surroundings... For example, trail running requires other kind of socks than marathon running on the road. And when it's wet and rainy, you need other socks than on sunny, warm days.  It's difficult, we know. That's why we help you with our blog. You can also ask our advisors all your questions via the Live WhatsApp, or in one of our stores.

Why should I wear running socks? 

Running socks offer a customized protection to your feet. They avoid blisters, friction or sweaty feet. That means a soft and comfortable running experience. 

Maybe you run with regular cotton socks since day one, and don't experience any irritations? All the better. But chances are you will suffer from any kind of irritation in the future. For example when you go running on a different surface (like trail paths, sand...), or when you go experimenting with different paces. Than you might think of new running socks. 

What type of running socks do I need? 

Which running socks are the best socks? Unfortunately, we can't give a straightforward answer to that. Do you often run in nature, on the challenging trails? Then our Falke running socks or socks of Drymax could be the perfect pair for you. Do you suffer from sweaty feet? Then we recommend our Smartwool socks. For every situation, we can give you de right running or walking socks.

Why do runners wear high running socks? 

 

They definitely crossed your path: runners with knee high running socks. These high socks have different functions. When we have to do with compression socks, the goal is clear: offering compression to the calves. When and why you should wear these compression socks or sleeves? We explain in our blog about compression. 

Higher socks can also protect your ankles. That's ideal during trail runs, where unexpected branches and rocks can cross your path.
