Smartwool Run Targeted Cushion Low Ankle Socks

Cushioned low socks for running and walking. Available in men’s and women’s sizes.

I love my hour-long power walks, so I especially appreciate wearing socks that I never have to think about while I’m exercising. Smartwool’s Run Targeted Cushion Low Ankle Socks are ideal for me because they don’t move around in my shoes and they keep my feet dry.

Contoured Fit and Targeted Moisture Management

Smartwool designed a perfect fit into the Run Targeted Cushion Low Ankle Sock with a defined heel cup and a thin, snug wrap-around panel that hugs my arch and the top of my foot. There’s a padded tab on the back of the socks that helps keep the sock from slipping. The heel, toe, and forefoot areas are lightly cushioned, and the forefoot has plenty of space for my Frodo feet to spread out. The toe seam is so flat and small that it feels seamless.

I’ve been wearing Smartwool Run Targeted Cushion Low Ankle Socks on long walks for a few weeks, and I’ve been very happy with both the level of cushioning and the moisture management. The snug panel, in a contrast color to the heel and forefoot, is designed to breathe and wick sweat. My feet are always dry when I finish my workout.

My only issue with the Smartwool Run Targeted Cushion Low Ankle Socks is the pilling. I used to never uses a clothes dryer, but have been lately. I don’t know if that caused the pilling, but I’m a bit surprised how quickly the socks showed pilling on the forefoot and heel.
