Everyone loves the Balega socks. I give them as stocking stuffers at Christmas too!
This may be the most comfortable pair of socks I’ve ever had… I wore them through the airport under my boots. Wish I had bought more pairs of the same.
These are the only socks I use… For every day, for hiking, and for running
I love these socks as this purchase was my 5th pair. I just recently completed a 50k in them that had multiple water crossings and never had a blister.
I have had this same sock previously and they are very comfortable. They do begin to pill up on the heels and wear out with holes sooner than expected. I continue to order them because of their wool content and comfort.

Love Balega, but not the price. Love finding them a little cheaper on SockGeek! But make sure to size up!!!
I love the soft comfort.
Our entire family wears them. Hiking, walking, and working.
Balega socks have been my go-to sock for a while now - and SockGeek came through with great pricing and quick delivery. Can’t go wrong with either one!
First of all I do like buying from SockGeek.com. I felt they were fair with Free Shipping. What I felt was a let down was the Balega Blister Resist-Crew, and I will tell you why: For an XL they were definitely not. Tight, uncomfortable, and I usually size 12. I asked for Maximum Cushion, and what I got was mostly a thin sock, with some areas thicker. The whole exercise to help you find the right sock based on my preferences backfired drastically. I wanted/needed thick all over but I got a tight, perhaps Bluster Resist, but I found these socks did not meet the description. At the tune of $21+ I had no room for error, and I am not the type to return something I wore, even if it was briefly. Took a beating, gave the socks to a smaller feet friend, and these manufacturers that claim will satisfy up to a size 14 are providing deceiving information. Too tight, too thin. Two Stars.
Comfortable and stay up.
They are great but I am concerned how they will hold up.
Great Socks!
After buying 1 pair for a triathlon I have never looked back. They are the best socks in the world. I have over 80 pairs. I have no-show, ankle, and crew versions for different occasions.
Giving as gift. My wife and daughter love Balega socks.
This socks are worth the money
Great Blister Restistant socks do the job- effective! Nonetheless too, too expensive. Very limited color options. Add more Mohair
Great socks and service
My absolute favorite winter sock!! Perfect fit, warm, comfortable.
I have found these socks to be very effective in preventing blisters. I had a recent cellulitis as a result of an infected blister and have gone to great lengths for this not to be repeated. So far so good, as I initially purchased these some months ago.
Also, I wanted to thank your staff for the seamless manner in which I had to return an order due to my error in purchasing the wrong size/model. Kudos to all!
Blister Resist socks are ideal for use in running shoes that are slightly on the loose side. I have many running shoes, some fit looser than others.
I’m a foot doctor. This is my favorite sock. Enough said.
These are great socks. I have the crew version for hiking boots and winter use. The ankle and no show for summer and every day use. They are comfortable, super durable and just awesome socks. FYI- Sock Geek is a great company to order from. Always quick shipping and great service!
These blister resistant socks are very comfortable. I cannot yet tell how they are at preventing blisters but they seem like they would do a good job at preventing blisters.
Immediately noticeable difference, especially on runs of 5+ miles. Definitely worth the money. Socks shipped the next day and I had them the day after.
Love the soft comfort of them.
Love this sock. Very comfortable and warm.
Balega Blister Resist - Crew
These socks have the perfect combination of cushioning and blister protection. The socks fit perfectly.
The representative helped me in a unique way and solved a problem for me rapidly. I appreciate that very much
These socks are the best not only for activity, but for everyday wear. Your feet stay warm and dry. The material is soft on your feet.
