Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Each pair of socks was wrapped individually in a cardboard display pack and individually wrapped in a plastic bag. The socks are thick and cushiony, the tab in the back is bulkier but provides good protection. The material is super comfy, and the sock...  Read More



Cons

The 2020 new socks feel lose and no as denser as the old ones. Unlike the many hidden comfort i've had in the past, these are much more stretchy and loose. They feel like cheap rubbery tube socks.

Is this not even a guarantee for their customers any longer? The sizing is terrible. Higher prices and fake product. I wish i'd seen the reviews that flagged these as counterfeit.

The socks regularly fall off while walking, ending up balled under my foot. They're comfortable on the feet but i'm dissatisfied with their quality & durability.

These are definitely subpar. I only wear authentic balega socks, and these are not legit.

I was able to hit 50 miles a week and run a full marathon and these socks are still in-tact and show very little wear.


These socks prevent blisters and never chafe.

Price


So good excelente price and item i fell so happy with service amazon


But for the comfort alone, these are worth every penny.


They are expensive, but it's not worth the money only if you lose one!


My only complaint is that the price is high

Competitiveness


The difference in comfort and durability is immediately noticeable, setting them apart from less expensive alternatives.


Overall, i highly recommend the balega running socks for anyone looking for a comfortable and durable option for their running needs.


If you sweat a bit, i wouldn't call them moisture-wicking, but balega has other designs that are better for that.


Other brand, $15 and highly rated, are very tight around ankles.
