Who knew, nearly a year ago, that new running socks could make for a happy day? But back then, I remember, I didnโ€™t even know that there was such a thing as โ€œrunning socksโ€. Let alone ones with toes. And jazzy colours? I never would have believed it if you told me. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŽ‰

Nice socks really quite snazzy looking. I know what you mean about being happy because of new running socks I couldnโ€™t wait try mine out.

I have always been curious about these - always thought they might make your shoes feel a bit tight but they do seem quite popular. Funnily enough, I have just posted a photo of my new waterproof socks on the Marathon Running and Race Support forum - the joys of being a runner, eh?! ๐Ÿ˜‚Happy running in them! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™‚

Oh, just looked at your post. Now I need those as well! ๐Ÿคฃ Iโ€™ve had the summer version of these toe socks, and theyโ€™ve been great. These are a bit thicker in the sole but toes seem the same. Tomorrow will tell.... ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ‘

Lovely Granspeed, like Sandraj39, I donโ€™t think I could fit the individual toe socks in my shoes. Do let us know how you get on with them.

My shoes have quite a bit of toe room and the socks are actually thinner weave than some of my others, so I think Iโ€™ll be ok. Tomorrowโ€™s longer run should tell...

Who knew indeed, my first running gear was all black, because that's what I had (black leggings,black yoga t-shirt, grey trainers, black socks).

Now I'm all colours!

Oh they look great :) I have never tried socks with toes - perhaps I should give them a go.

I really like them! Keep the toes separate so they donโ€™t rub each other. My shoes have a good toe box so plenty of room, but I donโ€™t think they are really much bulkier than other socks. I got some thinner black ones that arenโ€™t as fun but also work well. They do loads of styles. Give it a try. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜„
