Outlet Run Lightweight Mini-Crew Socks Socks

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

The Injinji Run Lightweight Mini-Crew Socks are a unique and innovative design that may not be to everyone’s taste, but they certainly perform well. The toe-speration design helps to reduce the risk of blisters, making them ideal for long-distance runners and mountain walkers.

Injinji says: 

Our lightest weight running mini-crew provides maximum comfort with minimal bulk. The design puts fabric around each toe, eliminating skin-on-skin friction that can cause blisters. And it gives your toes freedom to splay, align naturally, and work independently for improved comfort, balance and grip. COOLMAX® EcoMade fibers and a breathable mesh top keep your feet cool and dry, and the seamless ergonomic construction and integrated arch support provide a secure, slip-free fit. The mini-crew length sits just below the ankle for debris protection and cool comfort.

Our Verdict

The Coolmax material is breathable and keeps feet cool and dry, even in warm weather. The Mini-Crew design also helps to keep debris out of the socks, which is a plus for trail runners.

The design of these socks is polarizing, but once you get used to the feeling of your toes being separated, they are incredibly comfortable. I’ve used these socks for ultramarathons and mountain marathons in a variety of conditions, and I wouldn’t wear anything else for long runs.

The only downside is that they can be tricky to put on, but the benefits of running in them are certainly worth it.
