Coolmesh II Crew

Two layers, so the sock rubs itself instead of you.

Our take

The two layers slide against each other, so your skin doesn't take the friction. It's thin and very airy, with a mesh panel on top and a snug zone at the arch. If blisters are your problem, start here.

  • The catchBarely any padding. It feels thinner than $20 suggests.
  • Best forPlayers who blister often and play in the heat.
