Reply to comment by kairon156 in Grip6 - The best socks and belt I've ever had. by Happyhaha2000

Insanely comfortable as long as you don't have an unusual foot shape. Very good temperature control, perfect sweat wicking, no hot spots/irritation... I use them as my liner sock for backpacking, and a thicker one for running.

ooh yeah. foot shape would be a thing to consider. Thanks, I'll find some nice toe socks next time I have some money to spare and get a few.

Injinji is commonly recommended, though reviews indicate their new wool line doesn't seem to be very durable- I'd try one of their standard blends.

There's an art to getting them on properly as well, lol. The smallest toe is sort of difficult and I find it helps to do a sort of pinch-and-pull from the inside before you get the heel on

I'm able to spread out my toes fairly wide and move my big one interdependently, so I imagine that sort of movement can help.
