Audrey, if you are playing tennis in your tennis shoes, try thicker
socks. It
helps me.
Thicker socks might help anyway, even if they are just for walking.

I used them for walking. They are Nike Shox Allegria women's walking
shoes. I had been wearing New Balance and was getting calluses on the
sides of my toes. I do need to invest in Thorlo socks. I think my socks
have been washed too many times and they really aren't thick. Thanks for
the help.

"My" socks are World's Softest Socks from onehanesplace.com . (Note:
the crew socks are the only ones I buy; the 1/4 and knee versions
aren't nearly as cushy.) I wear these for running and never get
blisters or other problems. Super soft!

I discovered these at the Hanes outlet store last year when I was pregnant
and searching for comfortable socks, and they really are wonderful. I
practically bought them in bulk and wore them exclusively for several
months. Best of all, they are also available in a larger size for those
of
us with a shoe size larger than 10. And this makes all the difference in
the world when it comes to comfort and overall wear, IMHO.

Just wondering if these socks make shoes slide around a lot. I like to
keep my
shoes on my feet.

I *do* buy them in bulk, Michele! If you buy them from
OneHanesPlace.com they drop down to the still–overpriced price of
$3.99/pair. Shipping is appalling but they periodically offer reduced
price or free shipping codes. (I would call them and see if I could
wheedle a reduced shipping rate.) For an added treat, wear them
inside out; they're even softer that way.

This is a great help to me. With a size 11 my toes are often cramped into
a pair of socks. As most of you know I've had surgery twice on my feet
for hammertoes and bunions. I love to walk and really need to have
comfortable shoes and socks. I think there is a Hanes outlet in the center
sixty miles from where I live. I'll also do some on line research.
Thanks again

Actually, I think the opposite is true, at least for me. The socks are
substantial yet fluffy. There's nothing slippery about them. I wear them
for running and I feel like I have a firm cushion around my feet. I, too,
hate to have my feet slip around in shoes; it's very irritating. The only
problem with these socks is that when they wear out at the heel, the
cushioning is gone. Even if the socks are otherwise new–looking, I toss 'em
when I see the underlying (warp & weft?) foundation. Given how much running
I do, I suppose the socks aren't really short–lived; I just wish they lasted
longer.

reading this thread makes me want these socks! Never paid more than a
couple
bucks for socks, though....
I wonder if after they've worn on the heel from running, some sort of
material
can be attached to the worn heel part to give them a second life as
snuggly
jammie–type socks to wear around the house? My feet get so cold at night
in
the winter that i sleep in socks.

Audrey, you will probably find that the socks are more expensive at
the outlet than in the catalog/online. I think they charge $5 a pair
or more at the outlet vs. $4.49 (but $3.99 if you buy 4 or more pairs)
online. Given the price of gas these days, paying the shipping is
probably a better deal. Also, the stores don't always have the socks
in a variety of sizes. I don't know if I've ever seen the queen size
at the outlet.
I ordered a few pairs for my son, too. (They have the nerve to charge
more for the men's socks!) And I always get some for a few of my
friends who refer to them as their "Camp Donna Rose" socks. You
wouldn't think people would be happy to get socks for Hannukkah and
Christmas, but they are.
