Why We Like The Run Zero Cushion Ankle Sock
When our schedule permits only noontime runs when there's no where to hide from the summer sun, we pull on the Run Zero Cushion Sock. The ultralight merino blend wicks away moisture and fights off odors as we get in our miles. Built with Shred Shield technology, this pair outlasts training season and performs strong on race day, truly giving us performance we can count on from 5Ks to ultras.

Fabric has changed! Don't buy!
These used to be my favorite socks. I wore them every day. I recently bought some new ones, though, and it's clear that the fabric has changed. The new ones I bought are itchier, not as comfortable, and they shrink much more than the old ones did when washed. They also don't seem to regulate the temperature of my feet as well. This is so disappointing! I actually went to a brick and mortar retailer to see that carries Smartwool to see if I could find any of the old, good socks, and I noticed that for the same style here was a mix. Some pairs had the old, good fabric. Some pairs had the new, terrible fabric. So, I'm thinking Smartwool is in the process of phasing out the old stuff. So, if you can find any of the old fabric versions, buy them. They're the best socks I've ever worn. The new ones, on the other hand, should be avoided. They are quite bad.

Not the same anymore...
These have been my go-to summer socks, but something in their design has changed and they no longer fit. Shrinkflation? I wear 13 wide shoes and never had a problem with these socks fitting comfortably, but I just bought 4 new pair and they are all far too tight. Extremely disappointing because now I have to go find a new warm weather sock.

I would NOT buy this again
I purchased probably 100 products from smart wool over the years and have been satisfied overall However these socks are a total failure in my opinion I wear them properly however they were thin and develop holes in them after about 8 to 10 uses How can Smart Wool expect the customer to keep buying their products when it is no longer usable after about 8 uses? Also I am thinking about changing to a whole new product versus smart move because even after many inquiries they will not reply to my questions? All I get is generic boilerplate response to fill out a warranty form and they may issue me a credit. I simply want to know if there's any plans to change the design or strength of these socks so I can make a decision on whether to continue to purchase from Smartwool or not I fully understand Wool fibers lacks the durability of more stronger fibers such as cotton and polyester but there's no reason why a sock that I paid $20 a pair for only last 8 uses

I ONLY buy Smartwool Socks!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like how light weight these socks are and yet I can wear all day and not get blisters. Before I went on a walking tour of Europe, I checked the blog for best shoes and socks, and SmartWool was recommended...walk all day and no blisters. That's when I decided to only buy Smartwool socks, and I buy them for my family as gifts now, too. No other brand compares.

Color misleading
If color is a reason you're buying the socks, then beware, color is not as presented.
