I started running in these socks and have stuck with them for 4 years. They provide my feet with some support and distributes sweat so my feet don't get blisters.

Balega Enduro's have been my favorite sock for over a decade of running in the mountains. They're the perfect thickness and material for staying cool and breathing well, drying out quickly and giving a little extra padding, not sliding around in your shoe and tall enough to not rub your achilles. They hold up pretty good over time, too.
