Collection: Ultra Thin

Whether you like lightweight, minimalist socks for everyday use or want some ultra-thin running socks for your next 5k, you’ll want to give our ultra-thin socks a try!

Benefits of Ultra-thin Socks

Anatomically correct fit: All of our ultra-thin socks feature a Y Heel, which is a Y stitch that creates a deeper heel pocket. This greater depth makes the sock contours your foot for a better fit and stops the sock from slipping down into your shoe. As a result, you can expect our ultra-thin socks to have an anatomically correct fit and a comfortable second-skin feel.

Made with recycled polyester performance fibers: The primary fabric in our American-made ultra-thin socks is recycled polyester. This material is durable, soft, breathable, and moisture-wicking, providing comfort and performance. They’re also more sustainable and environmentally friendly than other socks since they’re made from recycled plastic bottles! In addition to the recycled polyester, the socks feature Nylon and Lycra to ensure they provide a snug fit and maintain their shape over many washes.

 

Multiple height and size options: From ultra-thin ankle socks to ultra-thin crew socks, we have socks at the right height for you. You can also find men’s and women’s ultra-thin socks in multiple sizes to ensure they fit your feet right and are as comfortable as possible.

Due to the many benefits of our men’s and women’s ultra-thin socks, we’re confident you’ll love your next pair. If you’re not satisfied for any reason, we also offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Alongside our minimalist single-layer socks, we carry a wide selection of anti-blister double-layer socks for those prone to blisters.

Common Questions

Before You Buy

  • Single-layer socks are made with one layer of fabric that provides a lightweight, breathable feel while wicking moisture away from your feet. Unlike our double-layer socks, they don't have two layers working together to reduce friction, making them a great choice for those who prefer a more traditional sock.

  • Wrightsock single-layer socks are ideal for:

    • Runners and walkers who prefer a close-to-the-shoe fit.
    • People who don't typically experience blisters but still want exceptional comfort and moisture management.
    • Anyone looking for a traditional high-performance sock.
    • Excellent moisture management to help keep feet dry.
    • Breathable construction for all-day comfort.
    • Performance fibers that help reduce heat buildup.
    • Made in the USA with premium materials and quality craftsmanship.
    • Available in a variety of cushion levels so you can choose the right amount of comfort for your activity.

    One thing to note: while our single-layer socks provide excellent comfort and moisture control, our double-layer socks remain the best choice for maximum blister prevention, thanks to Wrightsock's double-layer construction.

  • How do I choose the right size?
    • Wash inside-out in warm water before first wear
    • No bleach, no fabric softener (it kills the wicking)
    • Tumble dry no-heat or hang to dry
    • Built to hold shape through hundreds of washes
