Comfortable, cool and stays in place
I bought these looking for something to keep me cool in a hot, industrial workplace. I wear them under my safety shoes, which is a tough environment to find a good sock for. In the past when I've tried ankle socks they don't stay in place for a full work day, but these have no problem staying in place. Since finding them so comfortable for work, I've started wearing them for hiking as well. Their toughest day hiking was an 11 mile rocky hike to the summit of Mt. San Jacinto and back; they held up well even on this hike and kept my feet cool and sufficiently cushioned. For year 'round use, I'll probably never dispense with my Smartwool hikers, but for hot summertime wear, I've found these incredibly comfortable and durable.

Great socks!
The Wigwam Ironman Flash Pro Sock is an absolutely great sock that I would recommend. I was going through socks so quickly, and decided to try a more expensive sock. I want to say- it was worth it. I have been running with the Wigwam sock, and it's so comfortable I had no rubbing and no blistering on my long runs. Also, the sock seems to be holding up wonderfully- it hasn't shown any signs of wear. In addition, the socks are really, really cool looking!! The only downside is the high price (one pair for ~9 bucks).I would defiantly recommend these socks as they have helped prevent blisters on my feet and are extremely comfortable!

Great purchase.
When I first unpacked the socks, they felt hauntingly thin but upon washing and trying them on they were actually very comfy and cushy enough. During workouts they never once let on that my feet are perspiring, don't shed and haven't lost their stretch. They do sit low on my feet and barely come out past my shoes, but that's fine because I'm not looking to set any fashion trends with my snazzy socks. The price is steeper than I wanted to spend, but my results convince me to pick up a couple more pairs. Longevity so far is very good and color fade is virtually non-existent.

I expected to like these more - They are fine, but there are better options
I bought this sock along with several others when I wanted to figure out the best socks to use for running in the summer. It is really hard to judge socks without wearing them for a long long time to see how they wear. So far I have used these socks 2-3 times, and they are okay. I do not have any serious issues with them, but I just don't like them for some reason. Even though they are ventilated, they seem warmer than my other ventilated running socks. I don't feel as comfortable in them as I expected when I get them in my shoe. I cannot really put my finger on what I don't like. It may be the material which seems denser and more insulating or something.. I am not really sure. The first time I was tired and it was very warm out (my feet felt really hot), so I thought maybe it was not a good test. I wore them two other times in different conditions, and I still felt like they were not as good as my other socksI like wigwam as a brand because they had a manufacturing facility in the city where I grew up and my mom used to work there. They always had quality products in my history with using them. These are my first running socks from them (along with some Cool Lite Pro socks that I also bought at the same time) and the quality still seems pretty good. Unfortunately I just do not like them very much. I definitely liked both the Thorlo unisex Experia CoolMax Micro sock and the Balega Enduro Quarter lengh socks even better. The Thorlo are now my go to running sock. The Balegas are also very good and cost less. The other wigwam socks I mentioned above I also liked better although not as much as the Thorlo or Balega. The verdict is still out on longevity for all of the socks I bought, but I did purchase more of the Thorlo despite the additional cost if that says anything to you.

Couch to marathon socks
Running will never be the same again. I did not realize I was running with the wrong socks until I purchased a few pairs of these socks and realized how much better running can be. Seriously, the difference is noticeable from the second you take that first stride until the second you collapse in agony at the end of your run. There is plenty of cushion in the sole that makes it feel like you are running on clouds, soft fluffy cotton candy clouds. Your toes, heels, and arches will thank you. Also, your feet will stay dry, evening running in 85 degree Southern California heat. The bright colors are mostly hidden in your shoe, but what little shows makes the ladies pay attention. That's right, I see them checking out my socks as I run by. Get these socks!

Fast and efficient shipping
I received my product a couple of days before it was expected to be delivered to my house which I highly appreciated. The product matched the description and picture exactly and I was very pleased with the material of the sock, including the vibrant colors. The description of the sock explains that it draws moisture away from the bottom of the foot and it works exactly like it is described. Being a runner myself, as well as always being in the gym, I have grown to love these socks for their unique capabilities of keeping my feet dry and blister free.

Nice sock...but too small for my feet.
I did buy the correct sock size for my feet but it was way too small. The quality was there and I have had purchased Wigwam wool socks before. The main reason was I try to buy made in the U.S.A. Products. Thus is the reason why I try these socks. If the sock fits it would be five stars, but since it did not two stars. I do have wide feet but I don't think that should have been a deal breaker.

Great comfy socks used for running and cycling.
Comfy socks for running and cycling. Fit as expected (already owned a pair of same size). No discomfort when jogging 5 - 10 km or cycling with clip in shoes. Good quality material and section on back of heel prevents rubbing on shoes. Will be buying more when my current ones wear out. Definitely better than standard ankle sports socks.
