Product Description
The founder of Thorlos grew up watching his father knit socks. His father's philosophy was "A worthwhile life is to be the best at something." The founder shares his father's philosophy and incorporates this viewpoint in constructing the socks for Thorlos. Using their patented technologies, the "sports specifics" concept is Thorlos. Thorlon enhances loft and resilience and will not allow perspiration to stay behind. Socks are available for golfing, running, playing tennis and basketball. Due to their technology, they have received numerous letters from consumers and doctors informing Thorlos that their products were helping their feet to feel better. When your feet are pain free, your quality of life is more pleasurable. When the correct socks are combined with the correct shoe your quality of life will be enchanced. Thorlo has business relationships with other companies such as Jagger Brothers, Inc. and the Nathional Spinning Co., Inc. Socks made specifically for western boots provide an extra thick heel pocket that allows the foot to make the turn in the boot and allows the foot to feel secure and comfortable. Women's Roll Top Sock is the only under-the ankle women's golf sock that stays up all day. This sock also provides extra cushioning and comfort. Look for these popular items: the Thorlo women's lite running micro-mini sock with cool max; Thorlo At-Work and uniform sock; Thorlo At-work Safety Toe Sock; Thorlo At-Work Uniform Support Sock; Basketball; backpacking wool socks, casual dress socks - over the calf or crew length. And for the cold weather - snowboard and skiing socks.

Great sock for reducing blisters December 18, 2008
I have been playing basketball for years and no matter what i did or what shoe i wore i would get blisters on the balls of my feet and toes. Basically these socks allow for your feet to breathe properly and allow distribution of moisture and reduce frictions so blisters don't occur. I can agree that it has helped reducing the painful blisters that I once had.
My only gripe is the price, but they do the trick and are heavily padded on the base of the foot.
 Great socks! June 10, 2008
I am training to run a marathon and the pounding of the pavement under my feet was really making them hurt, UNTIL NOW! These socks are amazing! Only wish they weren't so expensive! They are worth it though!
Worth Every Penny June 9, 2008
These socks are very expensive, but my husband has arthritis in his feet and these socks have cut down a lot on his discomfort when exercising or golfing. Even better than insoles or wearing multiple pairs of socks. Note that there are specific washing/drying instructions that should be followed to keep the cushioning cushion-y!
Love These Socks! May 14, 2008
I have been wearing Thorlo socks for years and love them. I wear them for walking and hiking mostly and using them provides hours of more comfortable activity. We can all relate to sore feet and with these socks that happens after much longer participation in the activity than with other socks. They are a bit pricey but well worth the extra money. Check them out, you'll love them too.
Blister Suffers - Relief at Last April 13, 2008
I have a mild case of an hereditary skin problem called epidermolysis bulosa simplex. In plain english that means I get blisters really easily when I run. I bought three pairs of the these socks and have never looked back.
I just wished I had bought them from Amazon ! In Sydney Australia they retail for $35 a pair! Seriously though they are the best thing that ever happened to my sore and blistering feet.
