WrightSock Socks have been mentioned over and over by many runners and triathletes as being one of the best blister-free pairs of socks. It has a patented mesh like instep panel offering optimum breath-ability and moisture control.

If you’ve participated in a race such as a Marathon or even walked a long way, you’ve suffered blisters. What does it take to prevent blisters that might otherwise affect your results in a race or athletic event?

The two layers of protection keep your feet cool and dry. Some mentioned using these in conjunction with body glide or some other preventive chafing stick or spray.Runners who ran in the heat praise their wicking ability and best of all their ability to prevent blisters, which are common with sweaty feet. The “original wrightsocks” received the highest praise.

These socks can even run in the rain and hang with narrow feet and heels

Marathoners who have used these say they also work when conditions for running are not optimal such as lousy weather. They are one of the best if you end up going through puddles and mud.

In addition, this particular brand is a really good choice for narrow feet or feet with narrow heels.  Often those with narrow feet have a tough time getting socks in which their feet don’t slide randomly and restlessly about looking for traction.

Keep in mind you have to have the right shoes, too.

You can’t get cheap, ill-fitting shoes and expect these socks to provide a command performance of blister prevention. You have to have been fitted with shoes that work with your gait and your feet. So while they work wonders, they can’t do it alone.

When they start to show wear on the outer layer, you'll need to throw them out and replace them. Long distance runners told me they last several months of long runs and they are very durable.

From the manufacturer

Each WrightSock™ Double Layer CoolMesh sock consists of two totally separate layers allowing movement between the two layers. By allowing this movement within the sock layers, heat and friction are absorbed. The Dri-Wright multi-channeled yarns wick moisture away from the foot, allowing the moisture to spread out over the channels giving it a larger area from which to evaporate. Giving you a Blister-Free Run Guaranteed every time you hit the road.
