    They don't cut into my feet or toes at all. (I suppose that would be an issue if you got a size that was too small) The toes are shaped and sized for each toe, so they don't bag out either. The seams at the big toes are not on the outer edge, which I really appreciate as seams often rub on my big toes because of the way I walk. (the seams are up a little)

    Honestly, I wore those socks for 3 days because I like them so much. I LOVE being able to wiggle my toes and use my toes. I did a 10 hr shift on my feet yesterday and my feet weren't bothered by the socks, in fact they felt pretty good by the end of the day.

    I think I much prefer the wool socks, but I'm a woolweenie. Injinji also makes cotton toe socks and tabi socks.

    My next pair of socks will likely be another pair of Injinji woollies.

    Thanks! I may now try a pair, based on your review. I liked the looks of them... Oh - and I would get the wool. I discovered wool socks last year, and they are now the "go to" socks, despite the hundreds of pairs of cotton that I have...

    Mmmmm, purple wool toe-socks.

    They'd go nicely with these purple Chaco flip-flops I'm trying very hard not to buy.

    Lavender, Knot!
    There is a world of difference between purple and lavender.
    And it even *said* so at the bottom
    And I would *not* put them together with the flip-flops either

    Oooh, and those light purple Injinis and light purple Chacos will go so well with the light purple bartape Trek gave to Flossie....



    Now I just need Harlot to make these in light purple, too.

    (I'd be all over these Harlot shorts if they weren't camo. I have an issue with camo.)

    lavender, periwinkle, plum, marguerite, eggplant.... not purple?

    thank you for saving me from a fashion faux pas, and thereby keeping me from buying purple socks. (gray is good!)

    I still got a hankerin' for those purple flip-flops, though.
    (they're 1/3 the money for a triple for Flossie. Must restrain myself for my bike's sake!)
