Injinji Footwear Performance Lightweight No Show

Comments about Injinji Footwear Performance Lightweight No Show Socks:

I have a curved second toe on my right foot that digs into the nail of the third toe especially when I run or backpack. Tight running socks which are good for the rest of my feet actually exasperate the problem, often leading to lacerations that bleed.

I bought one pair of each of the different types of toe socks to try them out. The one I like is the best is the thin liner sock, particularly for backpacking. I can wear this with a standard sock over it and it works wonders for preventing friction between the toes. Also adds a second layer where the socks rub against each other thereby helping to prevent friction from being transferred to the foot/toes.

I use these socks for running. I'm prone to blisters on both pinky toes, and have tried all sorts and brands of regular socks, and taping my little toes. Nothing beats the Injinji. I'm totally sold, particularly with the Lightweight version. Love the no=show design, too.

I wear these in regular running shoes and find them to be far superior to a regular sock. I was prone to get blisters on longer runs - haven't had that problem since making the switch. I like these thin liners better than the thicker "performance mini crew" - just a personal preference to have a lighter sock. That might change with the weather. I wear a ladies' size 9 shoe and find that the Small is the best fit for me.

I had previously purchased the Injinji Performance Micro Mini sock and had thought they were pretty good, other than being a little bulky. These on the other hand are much thinner and have a slick feel to them (making it easier to get into my Vibrams). They feel great with my Vibram shoes & will definitely be ordering more of them. Oh and another plus to these socks, I don't have to wash my Vibrams as often... less stinky.

Nice for long runs, no blisters....but could stand to alittle thicker. Would be good for those how think less is more

I really like these socks, but they feel a bit small. I am a size 12 and got the L. Should have gone for XL. The sock fits fine, but the toe bits aren't long enough for my toes. Maybe I have freakish long toes!

I like them, but if you're looking for a good running shoe, get the thicker version of this one. These are pretty thin; comfortable but thin.

If you've never tried toe socks, do it! I finally did and LOVE the freedom your toes gain in them. At first it may feel weird, but you get over that fast. I'm a big fan of these; they are the perfect segway to sockless running (I do triathlons)

I tend to get blisters on my second toe from rubbing against my big toe while running long-distances. And no matter if I used Body Glide on that area, they would still blister from the friction. From a recommendation from a Road Runner sales associate I purchased these socks. I went on a short run to get the feel. When I first put them on, I thought they felt weird, but while running that initial I didn't notice. I decided to use them for a half marathon to see if any blistering occurred. There were a couple of times where I could feel the seem, but that happens. But more importantly I did not have any blistering which was nice. I really enjoy them. They are not a sock you can throw on and go for a run because they do take a bit more effort to put on, but a great purchase.

These are so comfortable! My husband and I both have vibrams and while he can wear his all day every day, I unfortunately get blisters around my little toe; but not with these!! They fit snug and are great in vibrams or any other shoe for that matter. I absolutly love these socks and I will mostly likely be buying more in every color possible.

These are socks for those who hate socks! They take a few more moments to put on, but once they are on they stay put and are more comfy than being barefoot! They help keep my feet warm (on a chilly day), dry, and blister-free in my shoes. I bought two pairs to try 'em out and since I'm always really bummed when they're in the laundry and I have to wear a pair of regular socks, I'm buying more. These no-show ones DO show, just enough, over the tops of my shoes (Merrell Pace Gloves).

I avoided these for a long time because, well, they just looked weird. For years I have taped several of my toes to prevent black toenail and cuts from neighboring toes during races and long runs. After a close friend tried them, I bit the bullet and bought a pair. I used them in my long runs and just finished a half marathon (1:23) in them. Fantastic. I didn't tape or do any other foot prep. No blisters, no toenail cuts and not black toenails. I know they are weird to look at, but really everyone should give these a try. I don't know how long they wear for, but I'm using them in races and long runs from this day forward.

When ordering a new pair of Newtons over the phone, the sales rep suggested I try a pair of Injinji socks. I figured it was worth a shot, and I am in love! I wore them for the first time for a 10 mile training run with my new Newtons (which had appx 15 miles on them prior to the run, so still breaking them in too), and my feet felt like they were in heaven. The socks fit nicely, covered the back of my heel so as to avoid any rubbing/potential blisters caused by the back of my shoes, and my feet were dry & comfy after the run. These socks are so great that I came home & ordered 3 more pairs and plan to recommend them to all of my fellow runners. The only negative is the material in between your toes feels awkward at first, but I got used to it between the time I put on the socks & laced up my shoes. BUY THESE!

I have to admit that when I first saw these in the store, I said they are a waste of money and look stupid. Then when I start to notice one of my toes was bleeding because the other toe nail was digging in to it. I said what the hell, I will try them. Now - i'm in love with them. They are so thin that you could wear a light sock over them in the winter, and wear them by themselves in the warmer weather. So, my question to RRS is - When are you going to dulpicate a pair?

I fell in love with these as soon as I tried them on with my Vibram Five Fingers. They are perfect. I didn't want to take them off. I've only just started using them but I already notice a difference in comfort and performance. No long term insights yet though they seem durable enough if taken care of.
