The new twin skin range has been completely re designed for 2016. this is the biggest update in its 25 year history. the new style utilizes a new fabric from the drirelease range, providing superior wicking and drying performance. drirelease fabrics offer a patented blend of 85-90% synthetic hydrophobic (water repelling) fibres, and 10-15% natural hydrophilic (water absorbing) fibres. the built in combination pulls moisture and perspiration away from the skin and pushes it to the exterior of the fabric where it will evaporate quickly. also contains fresh guard which prevents the development of bad smells from bacteria SO odours don’t cling to drirelease fabrics. this is not a chemical but a twisted blend of yarn and therefore gives permanent performance.lycra sport has been doubLED in the new twin skin SO an even better fit and recovery. lycra sport has been doubLED in the new twin skin SO an even better fit and recovery. AS well AS a new mesh upper design and ‘y’ heel it now has the best ever flat toe seam we have achieved in twin skins. extended areas of nylon in the toe area and heel and achilles makes it even more hard wearing.

I ordered size small and the fit is very good and they are very comfortable socks
I'm currently training for a half marathon and have been struggling for months with my feet blistering particularly after a longish run (7+ miles) so decided to try these socks. I ordered size small and the fit is very good and they are very comfortable socks. Ultimately they have decreased the level of blistering I experience and prevented some of the associated pain from occurring however after a long run I do still get blisters so they're not entirely effective which is why I'm rating them 4 stars.

Buy them!
I was a bit reluctant to fork out for these socks as I was a bit sceptical about the 'anti blister' selling point.Having just completed the 26 mile Moon Walk I can honestly say they are worth every penny.They are a snug fit which helps support the feet and I didn't get a single sore or blister. My friend wore standard sports socks and ended up with multiple burst blisters and her socks were soaked in blood.Buy them, you won't regret it. I also recommend Brooks Ghost 10 running shoes

Great running socks - reduce risk of blisters
Great running socks - i usually get blisters running anything above 10miles, and these socks have drastically improved that - the worse i get now is a tiny "hot spot" where the blister would have usually come up huge.They come up a little high for "socklets" for my preference in how they look, but small price to pay for pain free runningI was worried a "twin" sock would be too thick, and they do feel thicker when you put them on (because they are!) but dont notice it at all once running

Amazing socks
Iam prone to blisters I can look at shoes and get one! But these socks are amazing just completed a 21 mile walk for charity and not one blister, I was so shocked when I peeled them off my feet to find soft smooth skin! I didn't even have to rearrange them, they stayed in place the whole way and didn't rub! Would highly recommend them!!!

Very snug and a bit too warm
Bought these to wear during a period of training when I was suffering with a recurring blister. They are double skin and specifically designed to help avoid blisters but not the most comfortable socks. Even before the first wash they felt very restrictive and my feet got so warm. Now it’s cold I’ve dug them out again and am not suffering with overheated feet but they still feel very tight. Would not buy again.

brilliant running socks
I had been having problems with my running shoes causing blisters for a long time. From day one of having these socks I had no more problems with my running shoes! They’re really comfy and do the job perfectly. I will definitely buy more!

Medium isn’t big enough for size 7+
Great socks, but medium is on the small size for my size 7 feet. Have to stretch before wearing or my toes feel wedges together and I did get a blister the last time I ran in the rain as they kept slipping off my heels... if I bought again I would have to buy men’s I think.

Very good socks
Best running socks I have bought so far. They have a double layer which gives adding cushioning, they fit well and clean really well even when running through mudding conditions. These are also the first socks which I have owned which my big toe nail hasn't holed within a month of wearing!
