Pros

This sock provides excellent comfort and cushioning. I have a pair of booties that used to rub blisters into my heels, but these socks provide enough protection to alleviate that!

Thin enough to fit great in sneakers, with an extra layer of cushion on the bottom. They are the perfect thickness, perfectly breathable and the elasticity provides a comfortable no slip run. They have great cushion at the toes and near the ankles.

Cons

These socks are knockoffs selling at a premium price. I'm hesitant to re-order for fear that they won't be right.

Saucony men's mesh ventilating comfort fit performance tab socks are about as comfortable, and they stay firmly in place on the foot and heel. But the socks show noticeable wear after one 7 mile run. The sock is too big.

Quality

Good quality but not as cushioned as i expected and definitely overpriced.

Price

Expensive but totally worth the price, my absolute fav socks i've ever owned -- esp for longer distance running

Competitiveness

Had some older balega socks so i ordered these for my first 30k ultra.

I have been trying different brands of fitness socks for many years, and these are worth the price.

There are good reasons why 93% of the reviews for these balega socks are 4-5 stars.

I love these balega socks, but at $18 a pair i can't justify buying many of them.
