ArmaSkin Extreme Anti-Blister No Show Athletic Running Socks for Men and Women

Before the heel of one ripped, these were great, no damage! Heel lock lacing and mole foam failed to prevent my heel blisters for years, so i just endured until the callus formed. I walk everywhere, to/from/around work 8 miles average daily until i retired, and only a bit less since. I wear out low top hiking shoes after 500 miles so hoped these would last as long. I'm buying another pair and will suggest that the company reinforce the heels. Never got to try in the rocky wild under substantial load, i was still evaluating when one went kaput.

Great for preventing blisters. I only have 2 tiny blisters after wearing them for weeks during my 3 mile daily workouts. The socks I got have different seams than what’s shown -seams go along the toe line. I got one tiny blister on my 2nd toe which is probably because it’s longer than my big toe. The other small blister is on my other foot along the seam by the side of my big toe. This is much better than the half dollar size blisters I had on both feet on the bottom and small blisters around my ankles. I got the “no show” socks but they definitely aren’t no show-they come up a good amount. My only complaint is the price and that they are longer that expected. I will buy more since they do such a great job! I wear an 8.5 to 9 women’s medium shoe and I ordered a medium and they fit great.

I bought this for my fiancé who has a condition which causes major blisters on his feet even from just a simple day at work. We go running often and he returns with large blisters (even if it was just a mile). He told me he had tried everything and that he had no faith in these socks. I ordered them anyway because I couldn't stand watching him limp around the house with blisters the size of my palm on the bottom of his feet (and between his toes and on his heel, they were horrible). So when the socks came in, I practically had to beg him to try them. He wears them everyday now with zero blisters! He has had this condition since he was 10. In boot camp, they had to put him on crutches because he literally had blisters the entire length of the bottom of both feet. He says he has tried a lot of things but nothing would work. BUT THESE SOCKS WORK!!! He didn't like the feel of them at first but now it doesn't bother him. I plan on buying a pair every month or every other month so that he can build up a decent amount so there isn't an issue of washing when he needs to leave. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

I think this is the only liner sock of its kind! The light weight material is very different, with fine neoprene-like fabric inside, and has a slippery silky exterior. The inside holds fast to your skin and doesn't budge, while your 2nd pair of wool socks glide over it. Very appropriate name ...Armaskin!I have only tried them on at this stage, and I feel that they will take practise to put them on because of the material! Whilst the socks are very expensive, I have bought my husband and myself 2 pairs each, to wear on the Camino de Santiago walk of 500 miles in May. I feel very confident that these socks will protect us both from blisters! So I think a small price to pay for happy, comfortable feet over 500 miles!5 stars as I am optimistic after trying them on and walking around for a day, and the delivery service was exceptionally fast! I will update this review upon my return.

I must have a problem with my feet. Whatever insoles I try, and I have tried MANY, I get a "hot spot" on the balls of my feet. I recently started fitness walking again, 5 miles per day, and soon developed silver dollar sized blisters. So I searched blister socks, found these, paid a lot and tried them. They are kind of like rubber gloves for your feet. Rubbery on the inside, silky on the outside. Instant success! The inside sort of sticks to your foot so only the outside can rub. In case you missed it, you do have to wear regular socks over them. I have walked 5 times now, no problems! I am thrilled. I got the white ones but just oudered a second pair, black, so I can altrenate them. I just hand wash them and let them air dry. I thought they might hold moisture so I tried filling one with water. The water just oozed out in drops and my feet do not get wet like you'd imagine. Nothing bad to say. I love them.

I have been into tucking lately which is walking at a fast pace with a heavy pack 20-40lbs. First few times my feet were beat up and blistered which meant I could only do this activity 1-2 per week. I bought these socks even though I thought they were pretty expensive. What a difference! I have put about 15 miles on them in the past few days and no blisters whatsoever. This has been a complete game changer! I still have not washed them lol because I am concerned it may damage them. I might just do it by hand with dish soap once a week or something. They don’t really smell but I am sure I will eventually need to wash them. I highly recommend if you plan on being on your feet for 2+ miles.

A hole appeared on the inside seam in the first couple uses (actually, it might have been there when I received the socks. At first, I thought the hole was part of the design.). I've been using them to play soccer in some shoes that gave me blisters before. These have helped prevent blisters but I still get hot spots, so 3 stars for preventing blisters minus 2 stars for the hole in the seam that is growing. This pair's days are numbered already after less than two months.

They do kind of work, it gave me blisters the first time I ran in them but haven’t gotten one since then and I used to get blisters while running ALL THE TIME. Believe me when I say I tried a bunch of things (double socks, Vaseline, bandaids, powder)
