It’s important for athletes to have the best socks for running, hiking, lifting, and even just recovering. Injinji toesocks are designed to fit and move with your foot from heel to toe, for any sport, and are offered in a variety of heights. Whether you prefer a No-Show look or an Over the Calf (OTC) fit, there is an Injinji sock for you! Not sure which height is best for you? Let us help! While they all deliver the performance benefits of wearing toesocks – blister prevention, moisture management, and total foot utilization – some sock heights may be better suited for your sport. Check out the list below for guidance on choosing the right sock for you.
Hidden
The Injinji Hidden socks are the lowest height available and are perfect for those who would like to keep their socks out of view. The Injinji Hidden socks cut low across the top of your foot, making them an ideal sock for low-cut shoes. A silicone grip on the inside of the heel prevents the sock from slipping down and bunching in your shoe. Lace up with these socks if you want a minimal feeling sock that offers blister protection.
The Sport Lightweight Hidden sock is the perfect selection for track spikes, gym trainers, and approach shoes. This style is made with trusty COOLMAX EcoMade®, which wicks sweat and keeps feet feeling cool and dry. The Everyday Lightweight Hidden Upcycled Cotton socks are great for everyday wear and come in a variety of colors. Wear this style with slip-ons, loafers, tennis shoes and more. Both styles are made with recycled fibers, so you can feel good about your purchase with every stride.
No-Show
The Injinji No-Show socks cover the full foot, hitting right below the ankle bone. These socks are perfect for those who prefer a sleek, minimal sock look. All Injinji No-Show socks feature a heel tab that prevents chaffing against the back of the ankle while running, hiking, or working out. Grab these socks if you want full-foot coverage and a discrete sock profile with your running sneakers, gym shoes, or everyday footwear.
The Run Lightweight No-Show socks are the lowest-bulk sock, making them great for any type of athletic shoe! The COOLMAX EcoMade® and Nylon fibers create a soft and secure fit on your foot, while offering comfortable ventilation. The Ultra Run No-Show is the perfect sock for running long distances, including marathons and ultra marathons. If you like keeping your toes extra protected on miles and miles of hard surfaces, these are the socks for you! Looking for the best socks for yoga and Pilates? Check out the Grip Full Foot No-Show sock. In collaboration with Pointe Studio, this sock has a silicone grip underfoot that provides increased stability during studio workouts.
Mini-Crew
The Injinji Mini-Crew socks are the perfect height for those who are looking for increased ankle coverage, but still prefer a shorter fit. Injinji Mini-Crew socks cover the ankle completely, helping to keep dirt and debris from getting in your socks or shoes. These socks are ideal for athletes who enjoy exploring rugged trails with shifting terrain.
With targeted cushioning and a double cuff for extra debris protection, the Trail Midweight Mini-Crew is the perfect pick for trail shoes or hiking boots. The Liner Mini-Crew layers perfectly with an outer sock for day hikes and backpacking trips. Both styles are made with COOLMAX EcoMade® fibers to keep feet dry and cool. The Outdoor Midweight Mini-Crew Wool is best for running or hiking in the elements. Made primarily with Merino wool, this sock provides moisture management, temperature regulation and odor resistance all day long.
Crew
Injinji Crew socks are perfect for those who prefer a taller sock. Injinji Crew socks sit mid-calf, providing more leg coverage and protection than the Mini-Crew style. Like the Mini-Crew style, these socks are ideal for tackling varied terrain, as they seal out dirt, debris, and brush, while keeping your leg protected. If you’ve dealt with scratches from nature’s obstacles, this height is an excellent solution for shielding your calves.
Run in style with the Artist Designed Crew socks – perfect for anyone looking to show off their unique style through vibrant sock designs. The combination of COOLMAX EcoMade® and Nylon fibers work together to give the wearer a comfortable and sweat-free run. Lace up your office, trail, or gym shoes in the Sport Original Weight Crew socks – soft, versatile styles intentionally engineered with functional cushioning that doesn’t feel bulky.
Over the Calf
Injinji Over the Calf (OTC) socks are the tallest sock height available and are perfect for those who want maximum leg coverage. Boot Original Weight OTC socks are durable, protective socks that sit just below the knee, and fit under heavy-duty work boots. These socks are great for those who spend long hours on their feet – firefighters, military personnel, first responders, hunters, or hikers. Slip them in the tallest boots for a streamlined, bulk-free fit.
No matter which socks you choose, you’ll stay blister-free and experience the comfort and performance that Injinji brings to every step of your journey.
