Balega’s Support socks are created for athletes who are looking for support without having to wear a compression sock. These socks are loaded with features and benefits to create a secure fit. Extra support bands surrounding the ankle and arch are constructed to create a non-restrictive, cradling fit that enhances your comfort during high-exertion activities. Oval cushion ankle protection pads protect against "ankle clipping," and silicone grip pads prevent any movement in your shoe—both of these features are of high value to anyone running on trails or other uneven surfaces. Left and Right construction follows the contours of your feet for the ultimate fit. Engineered with Drynamix moisture management technology, these socks will keep your feet cool and dry, while allowing free airflow for maximum comfort, performance, and durability.
