== Injinji Liner Lightweight + Cool Max Wrightsock (5/5)==My favorite combination is to wear the Injinji liner lightweight sock with the thinnest Cool Max Wrightsock. This gives me toe protection and three layers of material. I find that this pairing is much better with blisters than any other option I've tried. I found that this combination works under the most extreme conditions of heat and humidity. The combination is also remarkably cool, much colder than you would expect for two socks with three layers of material. In [[Running in the Cold| cold weather ]] I will sometimes use a slightly thicker Wrightsock in slightly bigger shoes, but are more likely to simply use Vaseline for insulation.

I really wanted the socks to be even better than my favorite combination, and while they were better than most other socks I've tried, they were not as good. The Drymax socks did not keep my feet any drier than the Injinji/Wrightsock combo, and the friction from all of the Drymax socks I tried was higher. The Injinji/Wrightsock combo also gave me the toe protection of the Injinji socks which is a distinct advantage over the Drymax socks. I did try a Injinji/Drymax combo, but this was less effective than the Injinji/Wrightsock combo.([http://go.fellrnr.com?id=35454X937677&xs=1&xcust=dn&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FDrymax-Maximum-Protection-Mini-Single%2Fdp%2FB001NNX4OC Drymax Maximum Protection socks at Amazon.com].)== Injinji Original Weight(3/5)==If you ever have a problem with blisters on your toes, try Injini socks. They have individual sections for each toe, rather like a glove for your feet instead of a mitten. They take a little getting used to as your toes are not used to being separated. Having adapted to Injinji, I really like them. They make both a normal thickness sock and a much thinner [[Injinji Liner Socks|liner]]. As noted above, the liner sock is thin enough to allow them to be worn with other socks as well. The Injini socks are well-made using a seamless construction and technical material. The added toe protection gives them an advantage over the standard 'vanilla' technical Socks.

The idea of double layer socks is that the extra layer of material reduces friction. The inner layer rubs on the outer layer, rather than rub on the skin of the foot. I like the Wrightsock dual layer socks and I generally wear their thinnest Cool Max sock, though I also have some of their thicker Silver based socks. Overall, these double layer socks have a distinct advantage over the standard 'vanilla' technical Socks.([http://go.fellrnr.com?id=35454X937677&xs=1&xcust=wscm&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FWrightSock-Double-Layer-Coolmesh-Sock%2Fdp%2FB001FHX342 Wrightsock at Amazon.com].)
