      Comments about WrightSock Double Layer Coolmesh Quarter Socks:

      I love these socks! I got blisters all the time when I did long runs. I saw these advertised in a running magazine and went out and bought them. I absolutely love them. They practically saved my feet. I haven't gotten a blister since I started running in these. I highly recommend them if you have problematic feet like myself. Heck, even if you don't they are super comfortable.

        Comments about WrightSock Double Layer Coolmesh Quarter Socks:

        Like a previous reviewer, I was very pleasantly surprised at the great performance of these socks. I tried three different perf. 1/4 socks for hiking in warm and cool weather in Glacier Nat'l Park for ten days. These were the best. Very comfortable. Great wicking. Great lack of friction. Now I wear them all the time, and plan to stock up. If you're shelling it out for performance socks, these are the [*].

        These socks feel silky smooth on your feet. It has a smooth liner within the sock that will never bunch, chafe or cause blisters. I just hiked 12+ hours to the top of half dome with these socks and am very satisfied.

          Comments about WrightSock Double Layer Coolmesh Quarter Socks:

          I tried many different running socks from different brands. Some of them performed better, some worse but none of them have been as good as these for long distance running. Nikies gave me blisters during a marathon, Misuno and asics felt too tight and left their imprint after a run. These were like a second skin, went through hot, cold and heavy rain without a hitch. I ran half-marathon in them when it was pouring rain, through paddles when shoes were submerged in the water, without getting any blisters. Ran a full marathon when it again was raining most of the time and no problems again. Run when it was hot, cold - no problem. Two layers felt strange at first, Im was afaraid my feet will be sliding in my shoes but it didn't happen. Get a right shoes with these socks and your will enjoy your runs more than you will suffer:)

          I took these socks on a 10day hike in Philmont with 15 others, and I was the only one with no blisters at the end.

          I swear by them, and I recommend them to everyone who goes outside.

            Over the summer, I tried about six different brands and types of socks and found the X-Large Quarter cuff to the the best fitting, comfortable, and coolest sock out there. No blisters with these socks!

              Comments about WrightSock Double Layer Coolmesh Quarter Socks:

              These socks are great. I started buying these for regular long distance power walking and my feet feel so much better for it. However I recently discovered a second use for these socks. My work often finds me in stadium sized warehouses with nothing between me and the poured concret flooring. These socks have been a godsend when standing and walking around solid concrete for 8 hours straight. Just wish the came in styles that blend in better with Business & Business casual attire.

                I was concerned at first that the two-layer design would slide around in the shoe, but this has not been a problem at all. I use these for trail running and have not been disappointed at all. They are very light weight and thin (even with both layers) but they have held up just fine over the past couple hundred miles.
