The WOMEN'S RUN TARGETED CUSHION ANKLE SOCKS Sports socks light gray SMARTWOOL strike a solid balance between comfort and performance. Designed specifically for runners, these ankle-length socks offer targeted cushioning that helps reduce impact and protect key pressure points during runs.

Comfort and Materials

Made predominantly of merino wool blended with nylon and elastane, these socks provide excellent breathability and moisture-wicking. The merino wool keeps feet dry and odor-free, while the slight stretch ensures a snug but non-restrictive fit. The light gray color adds versatility, easily matching most running gear.

Design and Fit

The ankle cut gives just enough coverage without causing overheating or bulk inside running shoes. Key cushioning zones under the heel and ball of the foot soften the landing, which feels helpful on harder surfaces. Plus, the reinforced toe and heel areas speak to durability, making them a reliable choice for frequent runners.

Usage and Care

Ideal for road and trail running, these socks work well in cooler to moderately warm weather thanks to their breathable fabric. They wash up well by machine — cold water and air drying recommended to maintain shape and cushioning.

In my experience, these socks deliver sensible padding and comfort without feeling thick or sweaty. They’re a practical pick for anyone logging regular miles who needs reliable performance and subtle support.
