  • Men's 1/4 socks average 5.5 in. from heel to cuff - expect them to show about 3 in. above a running sneaker.
  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters. Here's to focusing on your run and not your feet.
  • Runners enjoy Merino Wool's ability to dry quickly and move excess heat and moisture away from feet.
  • Our lowest profile, ultra-lightweight yarns create zero bulk, zero itch socks that feel like a second skin.
  • Arch support alleviates foot fatigue and bunching for long-running comfort with zero slippage.
  • We close every toe seam using our True Seamless™ Toe technology for an ultra smooth, undetectable feel.
  • The “still” in Still Made in Vermont, USA is personal. We knit all our socks at our VT-based Mills using the highest quality yarns, sourced from around the globe.

Blister-Free Running

Beyond the moisture-wicking our running socks swear to, their fit is equally key. With a truly seamless wrap around your foot, they fit well and work well with any running shoe – trail or road. Depending on your style or desired features, we have heights ranging from no-shows and quarters to micro crews and over-the-calf run socks. All are knit with our ultra-lightweight yarn, while some styles have cushion for added protection and comfort. The best fit you’ve ever worn, accompanied with Merino’s performance, leads to incredible comfort that will leave you blister-free.

Reviews

All your socks are perfect

"All your socks are perfect ! I have 12 pairs and I love them. I wanted a lighter pair for casual wear and specifically traveling. I walked about 70/60 miles per week and I believe proper sneakers and socks are very important. I am a good customer of REI and buy many of their products. I recommend they should have more varieties of your socks. Thank you. Luc Andres"

Best hot weather socks

"These are my favorite hot weather socks, bar none. They don't bunch up, they don't feel weird when I get all sweaty, the stink less than most other socks, and they're super comfortable and lightweight. I wish I could get them in my size in the women's colorways and patterns but otherwise they are perfect."

Wm E. (5/5)

10/10 would recommend

"Best pair of socks I’ve ever worn. My feet don’t get has hot and the socks wick away moisture. They are super light weight and fit amazingly. The all black design is perfect for my every day sock going to and from work."

Reed C. (5/5)

Great sock for golf shoes

"I bought the Men’s Run Quarter Ultra-Lightweight sock to use with an ankle brace. Although the height of the sock didn’t rise high enough for the size of the brace, the fit and feel of the sock was excellent. I will wear this sock often for golf."

Brenton A. (5/5)

These socks can take the heat.

THOMAS A. (5/5)

Ideal for my daily walk

"Ideal for my daily walk during summer. Have separate support liners in shoes . Perfect fit for my size 13 foot, no blisters."

Randy R. (4/5)

Excellent

"Perfect socks. Light enough even to be worn in Malta. There have been weeks when I washed them in the evening and the morning after they were dry and ready for the new day. I would buy more."

Oleksii S. (5/5)

My Default!

"The Goldilocks for a summer run. My default for a hot weather. Ideal weight and perfect fit = Happy Feet!"

Ronald F. (5/5)

The perfect running sock

"Zero blisters, zero hot spots, extremely lightweight and good at keeping my feet dry and cool in the Texas heat. I’ve been a runner my whole life up to ultramarathon distances and I finally found the last running sock I’ll ever buy. I didn’t know socks could be this good. And all of that plus a lifetime warranty? If you’re on the fence, just order them."

Ryan P. (5/5)

Great travel socks

"I bought the socks at the recommendation of our daughter for travel. Just spent 2 weeks in Italy and really needed only 3-4 pairs of socks. Even with hiking, the socks were fine for 3 days. This will change my packing plans for future trips."
