Marisa Romeo, Mental Performance Consultant
My go-to socks for long runs and ultras. I pair these with blister friction cream and rarely have issues with blisters, even during long races in the wet, humid conditions we get on the East Coast. One of my favorite things is that I can wear the same pair for an entire race without needing to change them, which says a lot about how well they perform. I also love the ankle height, and they’re comfortable, functional, and durable.

They look weird, they feel weird (at first). These are the best running socks I have ever worn. No blisters, no hot spots, no rubbing. Used these in all of my ultramarathons in the past, and will use on all of my ultramarathons in the future
