The Kipruns are such great value. No issues whatsoever
In Germany, CEP running socks are very popular. My favorites:
I have a pair of CEPs
a pair of Stance
A pair of Incylence
I still have Injiji
Stance all the way – and lifetime guarantee. Sporcks not bad but pricey. Versus pretty patterns but can burn through the toes or ball of foot in a run or two.
Guys you must try gecko motion professional sport socks 🙌🧦
These socks are very expensive and me parents said I can’t have them. They only get me socks from Walmart.
