Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The socks wash well, they eventually get some pilling and maybe a loose thread. The material is super comfy, and the socks are indestructible after hundreds of washes. These socks are pricey but they truly deliver!



Cons

I wish i'd seen the reviews that flagged these as counterfeit. Almost no padding and very thin.

The 2020 new socks feel lose and no as denser as the old ones. They feel like cheap rubbery tube socks. It's disappointing because these socks are pricey and i expect a good product.

These are definitely subpar. I only wear authentic balega socks, and these are not legit. My first is amazing (a lot older) but this pair is disappointing.

The heel constantly slips into the shoe. They slip off my heels and unds up under my foot all twisted. The socks regularly fall off while walking, ending up balled under my feet.

I was able to hit 50 miles a week and run a full marathon and these socks are still intact and show very little wear


These socks prevent blisters and never chafe

Price


So good excelente price and item i fell so happy with service amazon


However the reason im giving these socks a 4star rating is the price point


They are expensive but its not worth the money only if you lose one


My only complaint is that the price is high

Competitiveness


The difference in comfort and durability is immediately noticeable setting them apart from less expensive alternatives


If you sweat a bit i wouldnt call them moisturewicking but balega has other designs that are better for that


While the comfort they provide is outstanding the cost is a bit on the higher side compared to other running sock options in the market
