Review: Awesome socks- updated Nov 2018 - Nov 2018 update: My husband and I have done many Spartan races and training and truly depend on these socks.... my husband completed a trifecta this summer and SWEARS by them. We have had zero issues with ripping, holes, etc. including very rocky/muddy races at Blue Mountain, Tri-state NJ, etc. 5x a week training means we have a bunch of them on hand. I recommend not drying them in the dryer- ours have held up wonderfully. Great job Mud Gear! Will be getting more for us this holiday season for sure! Just ran another Spartan race in these. Feet remained dry and protected, as did my legs, through mud, sweat, water, rocks, and tears. These socks are the BEST. THANK YOU MUDGEAR! Update- still love them and am doing another race with them soon. Remain awesome socks! Bought these about a month ago in prep for the Spartan Race at Blue Mountain, PA. I bought them specifically to prevent any injuries from the rope obstacles (Traverse and rope climb) since they have the extra padding at the back of the sock. First, the socks are super comfortable. I've never worn compression socks before and I was really surprised at how comfortable they are. I began wearing them for training the day I got them to ensure they would work for the race. I ran a ton of miles in them on the road, trail running, through streams, up hills, tons of burpees.....and they performed great. They did not hold water and were not heavy after getting them wet. They did not allow fine particles (mud or dust) to get in around my feet. They never even slipped down during all the training. Race day was last Saturday. They performed extremely well. They proved their worth with the traverse and rope climb. With the traverse, I simply put my legs around the rope and pulled. My calf got a little warm from the friction but I had absolutely no mark whatsoever on either calf. I saw someone else do the same without these socks and got a terrible rope burn. The rope climb the socks helped when coming back down. The rope wrapped a bit around my leg but the socks protected me. Again, they also held no weight after getting wet, did not allow the little particles of dirt through to my feet even through the tons of mud and muddy water that was present, and were super comfortable. My feet and calves felt great after the race. I inspected the socks really well after washing them post the race. You can see a little bit of wear at the back but are otherwise in fantastic shape for the abuse I have put them through. I would highly recommend them and I'll be buying another pair or two. Review: No rope burns!! - These are great great socks for an OCR and will be recommending them to all my friends for upcoming races. For all those skimming the comments: These socks are awesome. No rope burns and great compression. Get em. During my first OCR I got a nasty rope burn on my Achilles area while doing the hanging rope bridge. It was one of the first obstacles of the race and the wound was a constant annoyance for the rest of the day. I also wasn’t too keen about wading into the water hazard obstacles later on. Solving this issue was my main concern when purchasing these socks and they preformed incredibly in this regard. During my last race, I zoomed through the rope bridge and was happy to see that there was no visible wear on the socks at all, and no rope burns on me. Based on this alone I would say they were worth the money, but wait, there’s more! These socks offer great compression. I wasn’t looking for this when I bought the socks, but man was I happy they had this. The Spartan Super I ran with these had a ton of hills to climb. I’ve had calf issues in the past and was slightly concerned when I saw the course but the compression gave me the support I needed to get through the whole race and forget all about my past injuries. My legs were tired after finishing the race, but never felt sore. Two days later and my legs feel pretty much normal (upper body is a different story). Unfortunately, I was not able to test how well these socks drained as all the water hazards were at the end of the course, which my team didn’t get to until after nightfall. Although the socks never felt soggy, they remained wet until I finished the race, like the rest of my gear. All in all, these socks performed incredibly. MudGear really put a lot of thought in when they designed these socks and I am looking forward to using them again in future races.

Run small.
Nice socks but they run small. I wear a 9.5 or 10 in women's and 8 or 8.5 in men's, so based on the mudgear size chart, I ordered medium. They were too small. I would have liked to exchange them but wasn't given that option in the return process. In fact, I wasn't even given the option to return, only returnless refund. I would have been happy to return. I hope the seller isn't getting screwed in this process. I'll give them to someone. I went ahead and reordered a large because again, they are nice socks, but 4 stars for the sizing.

日本国内では殆ど入手出来ないMudgearsocks‼️国内ではAmazonでしか買えません。その履き心地と縫製はさすがです。ピッタリとフィットしてズレることは無くそれでいて締め付けることは有りません。spandex lycla独特の肌触り！日常でも履いています。いつも本社サイトで購入しますが目的別、競技別に多種有りますが高価格な上、個人輸入すると送料が凄高💦送料を考えてまとめ買いをすると関税が掛かる Amazonで購入が良いですね。ただ扱い種類がもう少し有ればと思います。 品質は中国製とは比較にならないと思います。

Love the product but the ones I bought started to rip within a year of purchase. I only use them for high energy sports mainly dodgeball and if they can go through worse then I am shocked that they are falling apart now. Either way they are great compression socks they helped my feet and legs alot even slightly ruined they are doing their job just a question of how long they'll last.

The quality appears to be excellent and size L fit my UK 13. After a couple of outings they are extremely comfortable and stay in place. Pricey for a pair of socks but experience so far is very positive.

Did the job I needed them for which was give support to calves and lower legs plus protect shins on rope climbs.
