are these considered running socks. I am new to this.

They are great for running because they are cushioned under the toes and the back of the ankle where I find I get blisters after running long distances. The cushioning provides an extra barrier and definitely helps.

I'm not a runner, however I walk a lot. These are the most comfortable socks that I own. They don't slip down into the heel of your shoe, even after several washings. I plan to buy them again.

I don't know if they're considered running socks as they aren't heavily padded. I use them for walking 3-5 miles and they work great! My running socks are thicker for more cushion during the run, but if you don't feel the need for extra padding then these would work just fine.

Yes but the stitching on them not good....I wore one pair for a race and the toe stitching came out!! A little thick more for cool running too!

No, they are not, but my husband and I both like them because they are comfortable, they stay up and they do not pinch or squeeze the leg area because of the elastic. These socks have held up well. They won't last for ever, but we like them so much we have gone back and purchased them several times. We ordered the larger size and it works for both of us. We are so glad that we found them. We did not want anything heavily cushioned. Good luck with your decision.

I would not recommend running in these. Not only are they prime to falling off shoes and boots, the metal stubs would be slippery on some surfaces making them hazardous. I'd look into something different if you want traction for winter running.

Better. I ran a 50k in the socks and my VFFs. I also wear both on runs over half-marathon distances. I found my legs feel much better over the course of a run, and I have no issues when wearing them with VFFs. In fact, I'd say I prefer their texture over regular Injinjis while wearing my VFFs.

I think they are just at the level of my crossfit shoes. They don't stick up or look weird, but they are not so low that you look like you don't have socks on at all. these are my favorite socks.

They are not tight by any means, nor do they ride down into my shoes.They are very comfortable. However, I would guess that if most socks are tight for you, these will be as well.

I am not a runner but can tell you that these socks are very for fitted. They do not slide down into the shoe. They make thinner versions for specific activities. But if you are running in cold weather these would serve well.

No, these are thermal socks. They are used to keep your feet warm in cold climates.

They would work just fine. On my running shoes, they work very well and prevent me from having to stop if a shoe comes untied. You can secure them as loosely or as tightly as you want. I like them.

No these were not thin. They also were very rough. Instead of returning them via Amazons preferred service and getting a credit I donated them to charity. Don`t buy these socks. I rate them "F".

Hi Steve C.Long story short... I wear 10 1/2 EE Mizuno Wave Alchemy and 11 EE Asics GT 2100 series, as well as Gel Nimbus... but when I buy these particular Wigwam socks, I buy the extra large size, because I have foot problems and tight socks just don't work for me. Pinched nerves and bad circulation are not fun. The extra large size fits me perfectly after the first washing... and are only slightly loose before that first laundry trip. Good luck

The socks pictured here are not the ones I own.My socks have grips on the bottom of the socks, that does include the heal and toes. Not on the side of the foot or toes.I hope that helps you.

women's shoe size is a little more than one half size smaller than a man's size. I believe that the Men's small will fit a woman's medium. The socks are about twice the thickness of cushion sole socks like Jocky Crew Socks. I believe that if your running shoe is a tight fit then the socks will probably make them uncomfortably tight. I found out this when I stuffed my feet into my Nike Lunerlon shoes. But the socks quickly adapted and in less than two minutes the shoes were comfortable again. I think that the small men's should be adaptable to your running shoes.

Sorry, I don't know. I through the packaging away. But I love the socks. They don't smell if I want to use it one more time before I wash them. &#128521; I am actually using them as normal socks too. Just buy 5 you get a free shipping. Don't worry. &#128522; I run almost everyday so I needed a good socks.

I am unsure. I did not care for these nearly as much after I laundered them. They do not hold up well. They began fraying at the ends. I switched to the Saucony and the Asics arm warmers and like them much better.

I have a set that I wear each week (meaning that a pair of socks goes through the wash each week and gets used each week). I'm not an extreme runner (I run about three - six miles a week), so I can't speak to how they were with a lot of running, but I bought mine over a year ago and they have held up very well.

They are snug, but i wouldn't call them compression socks. They are thick. I like them for deadlifts and rope climbs.
