I plan to run the Iron Mtn trail run in Sept. I have run 6 road marathons and a 17.5 mile trail run 3 different times. I have never purchased socks specifically designed for running and never had a problem with blisters. However I am more concerned for the IMTR as it is 50 mies and I expect to get my feet wet. Please share your experiences with me and any recommendations for socks that you might have. Thanks. Dave. |

DryMax, "trail" version, available online through ZombieRunner and, no doubt, elsewhere, is the best I've ever used. |

I had suffered from blisters in the past. I had good luck with under armor running socks, I still had to lubricate my feet, but if my feet got wet they would blister.
I switched to Wright Running socks. They are double layered so the friction is absorbed completely by the sock. I have never gotten one blister with them. I don't lube my feet any more and last year I ran a marathon in POURING rain and had no troubles. |

It won't give you enough blisters coz its thick enough to protect your feet for running.
