Best hiking socks!
The Crew length Balega Enduro socks have been my go-to hiking socks for years, I don't even know why I waited so long for my first Quarter length.The material of the socks is very good quality, it's soft and cushiony without being too thick. They provide enough warmth for the winter (although I wouldn't take them on a sky trip), and breathable enough for most summer days. The socks have decent ventilation, but it's not enough for very sweaty feet or extremely hot weather.Since I started using the Balega Enduro socks I don't remember ever getting any blisters. But I also use good quality shoes, and that helps as well.I had several pairs in time, I wear them on a weekly basis and they usually last me a year or so. Most of them got wholes around the toes, I'm always surprised how minimal wear and tear around the heels. They wash very well, they get some pilling in time, but it's minimal.I wear 7.5 women size shoes and the small size in these socks for me perfectly.

    These socks are the 1st ones I've purchased that are specific to runners comfort. They have great arch support as well as feel comfortable and fit the foot firmly for support. I've worn these a dozen times since purchasing them and they still wear like new and have lasted in the laundry. I've definitely noticed their ability to wick away the moisture while running that cotton socks just dont do. I have enjoyed these socks so much I purchased a second pair and will purchase more in the future! Great socks, great price , great for runners of all experience!! Definitely recommend purchasing these socks!!

    I first ordered 2 pair of Balega Enduro V-Tech Quarter Socks in early 2016, tried them out and loved them, so ordered 6 more pair, and started wearing them every day. I bought an additional 6 pair later that year and in 2017 just to make sure I always had clean Balegas to wear each day. They fit well, were very comfortable for my daily 4 mile walks, and have lasted years. It wasn't until 2019 that a few of them developed holes in the toes, but most are still in great condition. I just bought 4 more pair to have plenty on hand. My wife gave me a couple of pairs of Bambas socks last year, and while they were comfortable, they've since developed holes and had to be thrown away, after not that many wears. The Balegas, on the other hand, are so well made they've lasted me years. I highly recommend them.

    These seem like very good socks, super comfortable. However time will tell.

    My feet fall right in the middle of the size L (10.5). But unlike most socks I do not have to stretch them over my feet. This could, in time, be a bad thing as they may start to bunch up or wrinkle? Dunno. Also after only 6 runs they are starting to pill a bit under the heel. I'm hoping that doesn't progress much. So far not a problem at all.

    I'm happy with them so far but let's see where these two small gripes go.

    I was searching for the perfect sock for a very difficult foot and have found it. The sock solved multiple problems for me: (1) I have a size 14 foot and despite what people advertise, most socks do not fit me well - this one did; (2) sometimes socks cut off my circulation - this did not and allows a lot of air into the sock; (3) many socks are very uncomfortable or stiff - this one feels like slipping into a comfy pillow; (4) I typically get blisters for most socks when playing tennis - not one blister on my foot, the sock hugs my foot comfortably and does not slide.

    I cannot recommend this sock more. It is now my main and only athletic sock.

    Balega is my favorite running sock. When I started running many years ago, I purchased a bunch of Balega from the running store. These are still thin enough, to be comfortable. The other versions, i purchased were thinner. They do a great job at keeping my feet from being soaked. I am a heavier guy. I use them not only for cardio but weight lifting as well. Great breathing room and overall AWESOME PRODUCT! I have many varieties of this product.

    I bought a some balega running socks in 2014. I thought they were a bit pricey, but the guy in the shop assured me they're the best. Over the years the runs I do have changed a bit, at the time I was running half marathon distances once a week with sprints in between, I now run 10k cross country on a regular basis. The socks I originally bought developed holes in them in 2018 but are still usable. I only bought extra pairs because I got bored of wearing white (they're not very white these days).
    These are the most durable socks I've ever owned. Well worth the initial cost.
