Double layer or single layer?

1000 Mile is famous for its double layer, anti-blister system. The first Original 1000 Mile sports socks are a sock within a sock, like a twin-skin sock.

The inner layer stays with the foot as the outer layer moves with the shoe, as a result, eliminating friction on the skin and protecting your feet from blisters. 1000 mile socks are designed with the purpose of protecting not just athletes but also people with serious health issues like diabetes where foot health is essential.

Padded socks

The Fusion anklet sport sock combines the comfort and protection of a padded sock with the 1000 Mile Double Layer System. As a result, friction reduces protecting you from blisters.

The padded zone on the heel, not only helps to protect the Achilles tendon but extends around the ankle to the front to protect the foot. As a result, reducing any discomfort caused by footwear.

Additionally, padding on the toe and ball of foot areas cover known trouble spots for runners and walkers. In other words, this gives extra protection whatever the activity, making these the ultimate comfort in padded running socks.

Recycled range

Run green with our range of recyled men's and women's running socks made from 100% recycled materials, primarily plastic bottles. In other words, they help the planet by reducing energy, water and greenhouse gases.
