Running socks? Typical cotton socks seem to give me blisters after getting wet....?

Well I have a pair of SmartWool running socks, and they work great! If you can't find those, I would trying a local running store and asking them what socks might be good for you. I get all of my socks from a running store near me, and I love them. They work great! The staff should be able to help you find some good ones.

Yes, cotton socks (and clothes) are a big running no-no if you want to avoid blisters and chafing.

You simply need running socks, which last I checked were all made from technical fabric.

They can vary in lots of ways like thickness, support, and of course cost.

Balega (esp. the Enduro Low Cut) tends to be pretty highly reviewed by many, but can be harder to find.

Personally, I find Roadrunner's Performance Low Cut one of the best values out there. Do note that they come in a 3 pack while most other things you see are sold as individual pairs.

If you can get into a running store to see things in person, it can make your decision-making a lot easier, since fabrics, thickness, etc. will be very obvious. Do also keep in mind that sock thickness can even impact the size of the shoes you need to wear.

I use Nike Dri-Fit. They work really well. The bottom is almost like a grip type thing and they seem to work for me and keep away blisters.

Try wearing socks that's clean and fresh
