Performance Sock Design with Durable Over-the-Calf Support

If you’re searching for a pair of over-the-calf runnings socks, we recommend our traditional Coolmesh II OTC socks.

Common Questions

Before You Buy

  • Two layers of fabric move independently against each other — friction stays between the layers instead of attacking your skin. It's the only Double Layer anti-blister sock construction.

  • Yes — our Merino Wool styles and Max Cushion options are engineered for cold-weather performance. The double-layer system also works in boots and insulated footwear, keeping feet warm and blister-free even on long winter hikes.

  • We use premium synthetic blends (CoolMesh, Ultimax) and Merino Wool, depending on the style. All materials are selected for moisture management, durability, and next-to-skin comfort. Every pair is manufactured in Burlington, NC.

  • How do I choose the right size?

  • We're so confident in our technology that we offer a 100% Blister-Free Guarantee. If you get a blister while wearing Wrightsocks, we'll replace them — no questions asked. Simply contact our customer support team with proof of purchase.
