Great support

I own about 20 pairs of Swiftwick socks. I have neuropathy and they provide excellent support and fit. I have tried multiple other brands and Swiftwick is by far the best quality. They maintain their support after multiple washings. And yes, they don’t slip down in your shoes. Highly recommend them.

Fantastic socks for running and other sports.

These socks are amazing. They offer a snug, supportive fit. I have run in these and played a 90 minute soccer match and the socks have been great. No blisters, even when cutting on turf. I highly recommend them. As an added bonus, Swiftwick’s customer service team is amazing. They responded quickly when the socks didn’t arrive due to a postal service error. Great company to work with.

Nice feel-good for running & cycling

Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2021

Size: LargeColor: BlackVerified Purchase

Nice fit and no bunching up, I have used for both running and cycling and have found my go to socks. I am very pleased with them. Some compression, but not too much, seems Swiftwick did they're research. I will do a further review once I have a few more runs in them, I have not tried them yet in any kind of wet weather.

Great for long workouts and runs in the outdoor heat

Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2021

Size: LargeColor: BlackVerified Purchase

Very comfortable and durable. Holds up to a long outdoor workout followed by a decent run in the Texas heat. Plenty of cushioning and grip. Fits securely but not too securely - doesn’t cause wear fatigue and those skin markings from being too tight. Nice and secure fit convinced me to buy 3 more pair.

the best sock by a long shot

Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2020

Size: LargeColor: BlackVerified Purchase

I almost never leave reviews, but this sock is so good I had to. I have honestly not used any other cycling socks after one ride with these. Nothing else is even close. They are a little thicker than some cycling socks, so if your shoe fits really tight these might not work for you. But if you've got the room, you won't find anything better.

Good socks, shoe permitting

Reviewed in Australia on March 21, 2022

Size: X-LargeColor: BlackVerified Purchase

These socks are thinner in material then expected especially considering the substantial price tag. I normally wear a US size 12 shoe but went down to a size 11.5 and the snug fitting supportive socks then came into full effect.
