How do these compare to Balega Hidden Comfort socks?

Haven't tried Balega socks, but these are thick enough to cushion my feet and low enough.

I haven't used wool socks, but the thermal ones worked well on a daily basis. Hope this helps u!

I wouldn't consider the socks as thin. I use them for volleyball and love them. They do have some cushioning. They work perfectly for volleyball and are currently my favorite socks. I don't, however, know about their use as softball socks.

I ordered the Pintoli/Fytto Style 1020 Women's Comfy Compression Socks, 15-20mmHg, Knee High, Black, Large Size, and I absolutely love them! They are thick but have a nice silky feel. I cannot imagine them snagging or getting a run. They seem very durable.

I think they are just at the level of my crossfit shoes. They don't stick up or look weird, but they are not so low that you look like you don't have socks on at all. these are my favorite socks.

Hello, I haven't worn them all night, but I have noticed how much warmer my knees feel when I go outside, and I live in Fairbanks, AK. They made a big difference a couple of weeks ago when it was 28 below, and I wouldn't go outside without them now. I do wear them at work for 9-1/2 hours, and find them comfortable, warm and I haven't had a problem with them for that length of time. I bought them mostly for support, but do find they give added warmth outside in the cold. This is the best answer I can give you.

These socks come right up to under my kneecap where it is more "bony" than when on the calf. There is just a very slight compression to keep the sock up and from rolling down. Have now bought several pairs as they are most comfortable around and don't bind and compress on the ankle or calf.

The mid weight is heavier. The progression is light-original-mid. I usually only wear mine while running or working out - usually with vibram 5 fingers shoes. Warmth is not the reason I wear Injinji socks, so I can't give you good feedback regarding their warmth + I live in the South, so their utility in keeping your feet warm is not something I have tested. They might be very useful as liner socks in heavier socks for warmth. As with the comparison of gloves and mittens, mittens keep your hands warmer than gloves, since they keep the digits together. This might also be true, but to a lesser degree for the Injinji socks. They do have more information on their website. http://www.injinji.com/ The mid weight is heavier.

Not that I could find. I have been happy with Dr. Schols (sp?) light compression socks from Walmart. they are cheaper, too.

Better. I ran a 50k in the socks and my VFFs. I also wear both on runs over half-marathon distances. I found my legs feel much better over the course of a run, and I have no issues when wearing them with VFFs. In fact, I'd say I prefer their texture over regular Injinjis while wearing my VFFs.

No, for that you might want to try light weight Smartwool socks. These are for hot weather, they are very thin.

Nothing really, except alignment socks will "crush" after a while and loose their effectiveness. But they may be a little more comfortable due to the coziness factor if you like socks on your feet. Separaters will retain their form.

Yes. Very well. They have a plastic pebbled bottom , for grip. They are VERY comfortable. However, they take up more room in the fin than thinner socks. I love them but the fit on my fins is much tighter. I really need bigger fins by 1/2 size now to accommodate these thicker socks. I am toying with the idea of getting bigger fins. These socks are great, regardless, and are holding up well.

Not too sure. I tossed the packaging. However, my husband has tried several different brands and he likes these ones best. In my opinion, the socks are mostly thin (really thin) cotton and a little nylon. Hope you like them. I do recommend them. Michelle

These are softer than smart wool and more fitted. They have a lifetime warranty against holes. I have been wearing my original pair for 3 months now and they still look and feel like the first day I put them on. There are different styles also. Light are thinner and less cushioned. They do what they say.

They look like regular socks and don't leave indentations. They're very very soft with a LOT of give to them.

I have poor circulation and in the hot weather, my ankles swell. The sock seems to help the circulation as my legs are not as tired and they help keep the swelling down. At this price they are certainly worth a try. They surely cannot hurt. Hope this helps.
