Details
The Injinji five-toe original – this is the sock that started it all. The Sport Original Weight Crew’s COOLMAX EcoMade fibres wick moisture off the foot for comfort on long runs, intense workouts, and outdoor adventures. The patented design protects your toes from the skin-on-skin friction that causes blisters, and allows your toes to splay and work independently for better feel and confidence on tricky terrain. The mini-crew height keeps dirt and debris out, arch support is built in, and the form-fitting five-toe design works with all your shoes – including your après activity flip-flops.
Arch Support
Supportive band that offers a secure and stable fit.
Blister Prevention
With each toe protected, skin-on-skin friction is completely eliminated protecting your foot from blisters & just as important, hotspots.
Moisture Management
Each toe is wrapped in sweat-wicking material so your foot will be drier and therefore more comfortable than in traditional socks.
Total Foot Utilisation
When your toes are separated, properly aligned, and splayed it distributes your weight evenly which allows your entire foot to be engaged in any athletic activity.
Fibre Content
Fibre content: 85% CoolMax EcoMade® 12% Nylon 3% Lycra®
Care Instructions
To extend the life of your socks, wash on delicate with cold water, followed by line drying.

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.
Every technology explained in plain English. Supplier claims stay clearly labelled as theirs.
