Injinji Tetratsok Mini Crew Socks (Unisex)

"Foot gloves" that separate the toes with a thin seamless, anti-friction membrane to reduce friction, hot spots, and the odds of blisters. Great for walking, running, and cycling.

Our MEC employee tester was sceptical at first, but came around after doing a grief-free 50-miler, while watching his Tetratsok-less companion blister up. As he said, "they may not be for everyone, but if you've experienced bad blistering or black toe while running, they're worth a try."

• Made of 70% CoolMax®, 25% nylon, 5% spandex.
