The search for dryer feeling feet. These do pretty well.
June 14, 2019
Out of all the socks I have purchased via this brand, these are the best. My focus is having my feet feel dry and supported, the socks stay in place, with no tender spots on my toes, and still feel comfortable by the end of the work day when my feet and ankles are hot and swollen.
These socks are a bit thicker than the most common socks being sold in the stores. I do not know why the current trend of socks are mostly like nylons, very thin and see through; but, those kinds of socks are not for me. In the search for dry feet, Merino wool has been the best so far, but, this brand of socks, this specific style are part of my work week rotation.
I take off my shoes at lunch, and the socks are fairly dry when I go back to work. They do not stretch out terribly as do the common cotton socks do once they've gotten wet.
I am not sure I will buy these again, but, am not sad I did.
Would be awesome if they had a larger variety of bold colors.

Doesn't fit small feet
July 8, 2018
I really hate to give anything just one star, but these socks do not fit and do not wick water away from my feet as expected. I have a very small foot (size 5 or 5 1/2 shoe), and I ordered a size small. They looked big right out of the package. I double checked the size, thinking there had been a mistake, but they are definitely size small. They're far too big for my feet. I wore them around the house for a few hours. They're not too bad for casual wear, but I wouldn't wear them for any athletic endeavor - I believe I'd end up with blisters. I bought these because of a high rating on a site that rated running socks, so decided to give them a try. They're advertised as being great to wick water from the feet, but they haven't done that for my sweaty feet either. I found feetures to be much more effective for me.

If you were looking for this stated feature, "Plush under sole cushioning for extra protection" this is not the sock to buy. Sock is of good quality. There is no extra cushioning in the soles especially the forefoot. That is why I bought the sock but disappointed to find there is no cushioning. Might as well be Hanes/Fruit of the Loom. Would not buy again.

I bought some running socks years ago before a 5K and I guess I was hoping these would be similar. They weren’t. The band around the middle of the foot isn’t strong enough to provide much support at all. The socks are very thick so unless you are used to wearing thick socks with your running shoes, they don’t work.

I LOVE these socks. I wear them as often as I can wash them. They work great for running. They have a slight thicker part at the back ankle so they dont fall down and I love this feature too. They are so soft and comfortable. Highly recommend!

Love these socks, I have them in three different colors! The best part of the socks is that they wick away sweat but still provide extra cushion. I wear them to run and walking around on wood floors. The tab in the back is the cherry on top, keeping the socks from riding down on long walks or runs.

The quality is not as good as a few years ago. At first I thought I got a fake but nope it was the real one. The older socks were thicker. I would still recommend this brand though.

Balega are my favorite socks and this is the first time I have tried the hidden comfort variety. These are extremely comfortable while also still protecting my feet during exercise. These are great socks!

Very comfortable. I have narrow heels, and these socks help prevent my heel from slipping in my shoes. They do "fuzz up" and look a little worn after just one wash, but it's no biggie. I won't wear any other socks to my workouts now! I'm spoiled!

I really like these socks once they are on your feet, but to be honest putting them on is a bit more involved than I care to be for my socks. They have little give and you really have to take it slow with little progress.
