Details
Everyday versatile, this is a great sock that’s barely there to pair with your low-cut shoes. The patented five-toe design becomes part of your foot, freeing your toes to splay comfortably and align naturally while protecting them from the friction that can lead to blisters. Lightweight means cool and breathable, and a streamlined profile that fits under any shoe without bulk or bunching. And we designed it not to slip with a silicone tab on the inside heel, so your sock stays put all day long.

The more needles, the better. 200 Needle socks are lightweight, sturdy and durable.
Blister Prevention
With each toe protected, skin-on-skin friction is completely eliminated protecting your foot from blisters & hotspots.
Moisture Management
Each toe is wrapped in sweat-wicking material so your foot stays drier and more comfortable than in traditional socks.

Brand technologies, in plain English
InjinjiFive-Toe Design
Each toe gets its own sleeve, so skin never rubs on skin.
Injinji: "When your toes are separated, properly aligned and splayed, your weight is distributed evenly which allows your entire foot to be engaged in any athletic activity." With each toe wrapped, skin-on-skin friction between toes is eliminated. That friction is the most common cause of toe blisters.
InjinjiCOOLMAX
An enhanced polyester fibre that moves sweat away from skin fast.
Injinji: "COOLMAX® Fiber is an enhanced polyester fiber that provides superior moisture management and comfort." Drier skin is less prone to softening and blistering on long efforts.
InjinjiLYCRA
Stretch fibre that keeps the fit snug in every direction.
Injinji: "LYCRA® is a premium fiber blend that enables flexibility and movement with its bi-directional stretch." A sock that stays put can't bunch, and bunching is friction.
InjinjiHeel Tab
A small tab above the heel that stops the shoe collar rubbing your Achilles.
On No-Show heights, the tab keeps the sock from sliding under the heel and puts fabric between the shoe collar and the Achilles tendon.
Every technology explained in plain English. Supplier claims stay clearly labelled as theirs.
