Lorpen Multisport Coolmax Ultralight Mini Sock

Item #LOR0027 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Minimalist Weight / Cushing - Cool Temps

By Backcountry.com Employee September 23, 2009

Pros: Extremely cool socks, certainly wick sweat from feet, insanely comfortable, built well, elastic fit that never shifts or rides when you run
Cons: No cushioning, impossible to find in your wash

I run the canyons here in UT every couple of days in a pair of Salomon XT Wings and only use Lorpen socks. Previously had low-cut cotton socks or cotton blend socks. Discovered these one day and ended up purchasing 5-6 pair after my first run. The coolmax does what its supposed to, the fit is as close to perfect as it gets, the socks don't ride, you can feel your shoe and they wash / dry quickly.

Not a cushioned sock but if you want a barrier between your foot and your shoe that you barely notice these are the best you can buy. Huge fan.
