Not as great for long skinny toes

I have had problems with blisters on the ends of my toes and these were recommended to me. I read a bunch of positive reviews, so I got a pair. I haven't worn them extensively, but here is my first impression.
I have long thin toes, and I think these would be better for folks with shorter, wider toes. I felt like there was a lot of excess fabric between my toes, and the toes aren't long enough. (I think if I wore them with flipflops I would probably pull a hole in the area between my first and second toe.) I didn't get any irritation on the ends of my toes when I wore these, but I haven't worn them on a long run yet.
My other concern with these socks is the slipperiness of the fabric. I kept feeling like I needed to tie my shoes tighter and tighter because my feet slid more in my shoes then with other socks of a similar thickness.
