running socks

Jogging foot garments

Running socks are athletic socks designed specifically for runners, typically featuring moisture-wicking fabric, extra cushioning at the heel and ball, and a snug fit to prevent blisters.

They're often made from synthetic blends rather than cotton, which retains sweat.

I went through three pairs of running socks training for the marathon.
