    Thorlos Experia, they are a bit pricey but totally worth it! If you have a local running store any socks they have should work too, just look around!

    Vote number 2 for the Thorlos Experia - best running socks I have ever used.

    I agree with the above! Sports Authority definitely carries them and sometimes has them on sale.

    I love love LOVE Thorlos. They're so soft and cushiony...they're like $10 for a pair, but they are my absolute favorite. I caught my bf stealing my Thorlos (I have big feet, don't hate) and I almost beat him down.

    Feetures are my fave but are about $10 a pair at my running store. I supplement with addidas drymax socks from Kohls. They are 2 pairs for $12 full price...but are always on sale for less. They are good fill ins while the Feetures are waiting to be washed :)

    I've never tried the Thorlos but, I have the Under Armour tube socks and LOVE them!! They never fall down, but I also put lotion on my legs before I put the socks on (just a habit)

    I like Nike.dry fit.
    I like a good snug fit, so shop the boys department for my socks, they fit me better. (sz 7 shoe)

    I'm hooked on my Injiji toe socks.
    I would marry them, but I'm already married.

    See above. Though I might look for something a little less expensive.

    I tried Old Navy's mens running socks, awful. There is stitching that runs right below the toes and rubbed.

    On my long runs I prefer Injinji but I also run in Sock Guy socks.
  • My favorite are my Thorlo Experias. They are worth their weight in gold.
