Blisters suck, we know, Whether they're on your toes, heel or arch, they can really screw up your trip, cut short a hike or make the days after a big run very painful. Fortunately, choosing socks with the right features can make the biggest difference in preventing blisters, letting you enjoy yourself, with less pain and hot spots, without the need for Band-Aids, salves or hobbling around for days afterwards.
Sock design is stymied by the idea that how it has always been done, is the best or right way - the norm. But socks still cause just as many problems as they solve. To stock clammy toes, blisters and discomfort we took Aristotle's advice and started with our feet first and build the perfect sock for running and hiking.
Running can make us feel so good, but if we’re left with toe blisters, hot spots and cramped, raw toes the aftermath can suck. Toe socks could be the answer to running mile upon miles on the, without the pain and irritation. Read on to learn more about toe socks and if they really are good for running.

I never knew socks could make sure a difference
I’m newish to barefoot shoes and the benefits of toe socks, at 60 years old. Wish I’d discovered sooner how to treat my feet. I never before wore wool socks in over 100 degree F weather walking all day; with these my feet were cool and comfortable. Who knew? My ONLY complaint is that they say “Creepers” on the edge visible above my shoe. I have business meetings, etc and am trying to incorporate my healthy foot choices in all my clothing. I wear mostly skirts, so the socks show and it is weird to proclaim “creeper” when meeting with colleagues or clients. Maybe an option without the name around the leg? Even with my grandkids, ages 7 and 8, it feels weird to label myself as a "creeper" (in the US a creeper is, well, creepy). Regular socks with toe spacers work, but I would rather wear these exclusively. Let’s make healthy footwear for all aspects of life not just outdoors and casual pursuits. :-)
Brought these socks for walking, after getting blisters between my toes. Problem solved straight away they are so comfy I spend all day in them. Just purchased some more so I have 6 packs 😁
Creepers are keepers! I love them. Just did my first hike in them, was a hot day and my feet didn't overheat for a change. The fit is snug, except for my teeny tiny little toe, but that didn't create any discomfort in my boots.
I wear creepers toe socks every single day because they are the best. I am a professional gardener and these socks are the only ones that let my feet breathe. They are also quick and easy to put on because the material slips onto your toes easily. Warm in winter, cool in summer. Amazing quality and hard wearing. It is worth paying out for these top quality socks. No more sweaty feet! Thankyou Creepers.
Wool toe socks and a wide toe box hiking shoe served me well on a recent hike of 100 miles on the JMT that included wading through “creeks”, off trail to avoid downed trees and lots of snow. I had 2 different manufacture’s toe socks and Creepers were my favorite. They dried fast and after each stream crossing in very cold water, my feet felt warm again in a very short time. I had no blisters or other foot problems. I highly recommend Creepers! My hiking family can expect to get some Creepers in their Christmas stockings!
Best 5 toe socks on the market. Durable and soft both. Cold water wash and I air dry them as they make lots of little black hairs which my wife doesn’t like on her wash towels. My go to socks going forward .
I used creepers socks for an ultramarathon in Europe last weekend hoping my problem with blisters running long distances will go away and it did! I ran 100k without any blisters and the usual hotspots in my feet looked great. This socks was worth it and I was stoked to finish my race using these and not worry about foot problems after the event! Was definitely and game-changer for me! Thanks you Creepers!
