How to choose running socks
Choose by distance and by what happens to your feet. If you run up to a half marathon and do not usually get blisters, go for the R15 or R10. If you do long runs, marathons or trail, or you get blisters, go for the Terra or R10 Terra.
- Technical fabric, never cotton. Cotton holds sweat. DRYMODE™ keeps your feet dry by wicking moisture away faster.
- A cuff that stays put. LOCKFIT™ keeps the cuff in place, without losing its shape or slipping down during training and races.
- Height. Mid (R15 and Terra) if you want to protect your ankle from rubbing against the shoe. Ankle (R10 and R10 Terra) if you prefer less fabric.
- Your exact size. A sock that is too big creates folds and one that is too small squeezes your toes.
