Injinji Outdoor Series toe socks

I swear by Injinji’s. I have always been prone to blisters between my toes and these funky little socks are the cure for me. I usually wear the coolmax version with a wool oversock.

I bought (4) pair of these a few months ago and figured they would provide more of a “barefoot” experience when coupled with shoes that have a wide toebox. I wore them running, walking and even by themselves around the house. The extra fabric between the toes was a bit annoying and I was happy to take them off. They didn’t provide any benefit over any other pair of coolmax socks, and were worse for comfort. They look “fun”, but they weren’t worth it for me overall.

I really want to love these, however I have serious issues with the durability. I just bought two new pairs about two weeks ago and they are already starting to get threadbare in high pressure areas.

I hike in injinji (performance models) and Chaco Z1 sandals. Hiked like this for 1400 miles on the AT last year. A pair of the performance models last 500 miles. The OUTDOOR models less than 50 miles amd they are SHOT!
