WHAT ARE TOE SOCKS? Stay blister free with Injinji

Injinji are the creators of the Performance Toe Sock. They are based in California and dedicated to the health and wellness of all things feet. Their patented, five-toe sock design improves any runners experience with their feet, by lessening the worry of discomfort, and creating more time for adventures and training.

BENEFITS OF TOE SOCKS

What’s the deal with having a five-toe sock design, and how is it going to help me improve as an athlete? The toe sock allows your toes to spread-out naturally and align properly, this allows for improved stability and additional comfort whilst out running. Not only does it help with comfortability, but it also improves on the following:

  • Preventing Blisters – Friction is completely eliminated between each toe, thanks to the design of the sock. The removal of skin-on-skin friction protects your foot from blisters and hot spots, making your runs more comfortable and recovery a lot easier.
  • Total Foot Utilisation – Your toes are separated, in a natural position, making your weight distributed evenly and allowing your entire foot to be engaged in any activity you demand.
  • Moisture Management – The sock is made from a sweat-wicking material, meaning your foot will be drier and consequently more comfortable and enjoyable than usual running socks.

There is a lot of choice when it comes to Injinji toe socks, so you want to be sure to make the right one.

  • RUN - Offering ground-breaking, restriction-free movement and eliminates skin-on-skin friction, which is one of the primary causes of blisters. The five-toe sleeve design and superior fibre keep feet dry and shielded while running on any surface, at any distance.

  • TRAIL - This is the sock for long runs and aggressive hikes on rugged terrain. Injinji’s toe sock design reduces friction between the toes to help eliminate blisters, frees them to spread-out naturally, and lets you utilize your whole foot on slender, rough trails.

  • ULTRA RUN - Featuring cushioned terry throughout the entire foot, including the toes, to help soften the impact feet sustain during a run or workout. Linear knit lines on the underside of the foot offer additional arch support and a tighter fit to help eliminate friction. Light compression throughout the sock plus strategically placed mesh throughout the foot and leg offer extra ventilation and breathability.

  • ULTRA COMPRESSION - Ultra Compression toe socks feature a seamless, 200-needle count, lightweight design to reduce recovery time and muscle fatigue. Whether on a run or competing, the Ultra Compression offers graduated compression starting at the ankle and continuing through the upper leg to aid in circulation and blood flow.
