Five toe socks - toes separated comfortable socks for athletic, running, walking, yoga and casual use

I bought these because I wanted to find an alternative to spending $12/pair for injinji toe socks. In part because they are expensive, and in part because certain styles tend to shrink which makes them difficult to wear.When I received these socks, I noticed they are not quite as soft out of the package, and seemed to be pretty large compared to what I’m used to. HOWEVER, after the first wash, they are considerably softer and the fit is excellent. I am very, very pleased with these as a replacement for those oh so expensive injinji socks

Update: I downgraded my review from 4 to 3, because these socks have no staying power. Holes in almost all of them in about six months. I didn't buy more.Original: I have mixed thoughts about these socks. I *love* the comfort and fit. (Women's shoe size 8, and my toes are probably a bit short/stubby.) I surprised myself in discovering I could think socks feel great. However, I hate the dual colors. When I wear them outdoors (which for me usually means gardening), dirt gets on the white and doesn't come out. First, there's a laundry dilemma: wash with lights or darks? I've settled on washing on light, with oxygen (non-chlorine) bleach. They just will not come clean. So now I have comfortable but permanently stained socks. Why the contrasting stripe? I'd like all-black. Would also like crew-length.Would order a 6-pack of solid black in a heartbeat.

i bought these socks as a means to feel comfortable during those hot and muggy summer days especially when i'm working a long shift, i work in healthcare. these socks provide that breathe-ability for my feet but still quite comfortable like a regular sock. this is my first purchase of finger socks, which i really wanted to try. they seemed small but they countoured to the shape and size of my feet quite nicely. it comes in a 6 pack but i've been using only two pairs as of now. i'm kinda stindgy of saving so i'm waiting til these two wear out and then i'll use the next set of finger socks (i alternate the the two pairs right now). the two pairs are holding up nicely!

preface by saying I have been wearing injinjis almost exclusively for over 5 years. That being said those guys are expensive and I needed an alternative for wearing every day to work.These are perfect.the ventilation helps keep my feet cool and they are perfectly comfortable for being at work all day.May consider buying another package so I can keep the js for working out and running.

I've had a couple packs of the colored socks that are blue and yellow and stuff and they are okay but they don't last long. I wear vibrams daily so I needs muh toe socks.But I just went with the light grey/ dark grey/ black pack and they are the best toe socks I've had to date. They are more comfortable and so far seem very well made. Give them a shot. When these get holes I'll probably go for the expensive injinji's next. I just so far have refused to pay $10+ per pair of socks, it's ridiculous. But I may try one pair just to see if they're worth the price.UPDATE: So it's been a month since I bought these and since I wear them daily I've had a couple pairs start to wear through already. Ugh... oh well bought another set. I keep thinking about getting the Injinji's but I can't justify spending that much on socks. I get 5-6 pairs in this set, they're comfortable. I'd spend almost the same amount on one pair of Injinji's and if they didn't last as long I'd be angry I bought them.

In the past, I would use bandages and wait for calluses to form. After a long Winter of fuzzy socks and boots, my feet were so soft they just took a nasty beating after a Spring run at the gym. I ordered these up to see if they would protect my poor toes from rubbing each other raw and it WORKED! Now I can keep my soft, non-callused feet into Summer sandals. 😎I have size 9 1/2 feet and these fit just fine. 👍

I love these socks, despite their large size. They help a lot with my foot pain due to a neurological disorder because when the toes are spread just a bit, they are less able to curl in on themselves or cause Charlie horses in my foot causing pain. They also make it possible to wear close-toed shoes as long the toe box is wide enough. The only reason I subtracted any stars was because of the size. They show the heel all the way up to my ankle, so I can't wear them with anything but full sneakers or when I am barefoot - but even that is a restriction I will gladly take for the relief.

I purchased the EdLand five toe socks 6 variety pack, out of curiosity for my brother along with another brand. When I received them, I first noticed the packaging, it showed that the manufacturer cares about its product. I kept 3 pairs. They wash well, I air dried them mostly because I didn't want to take a chance on shrinkage. I work in retail and I'm either standing, walking (with a purpose), working on displays, or climbing ladders and I definitely felt the difference. I've worn them twice to work. There's no bunching at the toes like conventional socks when I'm moving about. They really helped in keeping my toes dry and comfortable. I will repurchase these socks. BTW, I have shapely feet and wear an 81/2 W shoe size.
