I've had these for a while, but today was the first day i wore them riding. Went about 30 miles. Took maybe a quarter mile for the toe seams to all move and become unobtrusive.
Feet were happy dry and warm. No hot-foot like I get with thicker socks. Feet didn't chill when I changed out of my bike shoes, either. (no cold damp toes?)
They are cute and different, and were comfy on the bike.

They are really great for blister prevention for running, but at least used to have a reputation for wearing out fast. I have three pairs- sand, black, and the new shorty pink. But, like expensive wine, I hoard them and only wear them for Wickham Park marathon....

I LOVE my Injinji socks, but I am afraid of them wearing out, they seem a little thin. You get used to them the more you wear them, I'm at the point where I'm afraid to wear other socks for running

I have been looking into these and now it sounds like I am just going to need to splurge and buy a pair.

The sand color is really good for hiding dirt!

I actually wear them more than the black- although, on a long trail run, my feet turn pitch black anyway...
