How do anti-blister socks work?
Anti-blister socks are engineered to reduce the friction that causes hot spots and blisters during activity. Unlike ordinary socks, these feature dual-layer construction or specialised moisture-wicking fabrics that help minimise rubbing between your skin and footwear. The inner layer stays close to the skin while the outer layer moves with the shoe, reducing abrasion and shear forces that can irritate skin. At the same time, high-performance fibres wick sweat away from your feet, helping keep them dry, cool and blister-free during walks, runs or long days on your feet.
Are anti-blister socks suitable for hiking and running?
Yes, anti-blister socks are especially suitable for both hiking and running, because these activities involve repetitive foot movement and extended time on your feet. For hikers, the dual-layer or moisture-managing design helps reduce hot spots on uneven terrain and long miles, while runners benefit from reduced friction and sweat control that help prevent blisters mid-stride. Their cushioned yet performance-focused construction also helps absorb impact and enhance comfort over longer distances, making them a smart choice for trail walks, multi-day hikes or daily runs alike.
How do I choose the right socks for comfort and support?
Choosing the right socks for comfort and support means looking at fit, moisture management and cushioning. Socks should fit snugly without constricting circulation, too loose and they can bunch up and cause irritation; too tight and they can reduce comfort and foot mobility. Seek out socks with moisture-wicking fibres that draw sweat away from the skin to reduce dampness and friction, and consider the level of cushioning or padding you prefer: more cushioning for shock absorption on hard surfaces, or lighter padding for a closer feel and breathability. A well-constructed anti-blister sock with a secure fit supports your feet through long days, helping you stay comfortable whether you’re hiking rugged trails or running daily miles.
