Injinji running socks (review).

Check out my weird green feet:



Funky, huh?

They are the Injinji toe socks and I love them. I was lucky to be sent two pair for review and over the past two months I've become a big fan.

At first, I admit, I thought they were the weirdest socks ever. Seriously. I mean, look at them. Weird.

And weirder still was putting them on. Poking each toe into the individual slots -- sleeves? toe thingies? -- well, whatever they are called, poking each toe into them was . . . odd.

But, to my surprise, I love my Injinjis and they've become my go-to socks. In fact, I wore them on this morning's almost-6 miler.

The individual toe things really keep my toes dry when I run, which is nice since I'm still feeling nervous about getting blisters after the Boilermaker Blister Incident.

They are comfortable, thin, low-profile -- just right.

My new favorite socks!

Thank you, Injinji, for being so weird. And so great to run in.

Have you tried the Injinji socks? Do you like them?

You can find the Injinji Performance Lightweight No Showsocks -- just like mine in the photo -- at Amazon and other retailers.

Have a great day!

I always thought they looked stupid but I started to get blisters in between my toes during long runs so I gave them a shot...love them. Only socks I'll wear for long runs now!

I like them for cycling. Seem to keep my feet from falling asleep

Those definitely look cool! I'm pretty sure my webbed toes wouldn't fit in them, though :P

I've never seen socks like those! I don't know if I would like having material between my toes? Fortunately I don't have problems with blisters ;)

I still haven't tried them, but every review I've seen raves about them. Definitely need to check them out!

After my first 1/2 marathon, where I painfully hobbled to the finish after getting 2 huge quarter-sized blisters on the balls of both of my feet, right in between my big and 2nd toe, I knew I needed something else. I went and purchased a pair of Injinjis and have never looked back! They have been an absolute life-saver, and I have since completed 5 more 1/2 marathons and quite a few smaller races as well, all in my one pair of Injinjis, with no blisters!
