⚡ At a Glance
- • Wearing Comfort: Extra-soft cotton blend with medium cushioning and a flat toe seam for low irritation
- • Best for: Young runners and school-age children who need breathable, anti-blister socks for jogging and endurance runs

Mid-calf running socks with a three-layer knit for fast moisture wicking. Anatomical left/right knitting and cushioned sole deliver a snug, slip-free fit.
Blister prevention - with flat toe seam and layered moisture control
A flat seam in the toe area removes bulky stitching that can create pressure points, while the three-layer construction channels moisture away from the skin. Fast moisture transport reduces the wet, abrasive conditions that cause blisters.
Reduced rubbing means fewer sore toes and longer, more comfortable runs for children.
Secure comfort and efficient power transfer - with medium cushioning and anatomical knitting
Medium padding underfoot cushions contact with the shoe without adding excessive bulk, and special knitting adapted to left and right feet ensures an even, wrinkle-free fit. The design maintains close shoe contact for direct power transmission.
Stable, cushioned support keeps younger runners comfortable and organised in their stride.
Durable, wash-friendly construction - with reinforced knit and colour retention
Knitting techniques and material choices emphasise shape and colour retention even after repeated washing, with a recommended machine wash at 40°C gentle. Size guidance suggests choosing the smaller size when between sizes to guarantee a wrinkle-free fit.
Socks hold their shape and appearance through regular use, stretching the wardrobe lifespan for growing children.
