Customer Reviews balega Ultra Light No Show

These socks do not disappoint! They are the best socks for track work in the warm months. They are cool, keepy your feet dry and are ultra-compressive so they are so, so comfy.

I have been wearing Balega socks exclusively for over 5 years. I have always been a huge fan of the more cushioned, mid-weight socks like the Hidden Comfort and Blister Resists, however, recently I've been LOVING the Ultralights. The way they hug my feet around the arch and their low profile and wicking qualities have brought them to the top of my sock drawer. I love that they come in extra bright color ways and appreciate the fine stitching, which makes them feel silky smooth on my feet.

I love this style because it's thin and contours perfectly to my foot. I have never had any rubbing or blistering. The sock stays in place so you can just focus on your run. :)

Great and well made but high end of pricing range. That is a drawback.

Just bought a lot of these. The old ultralight version had more fabric in the back where your shoe hits( it has a separate white band) and were a little thicker. See picture. I just don't think these new ultralights will last as long. The old ones also had sooo much more cushioning but were light at the same time. idk. I'll see how long before this new version wears by the back of the foot. I guess I still recommend. New ones still very soft.

I love balega socks. These ran a little bigger than some of my older pairs, so I should have sized down. They are still great socks even if a big on me.

I have 2 pairs of these in white and they fit fine - however the color ones seem to be bulkier and the toe seam is different - guess I will only white from now on. strange

Unfortunately I had to return these. They were comfortable except in the toe are where for me were too tight and restrictive.

These are tight and run small. I wear a 9 and ordered the women's medium in this sock. I really needed the large, even though the medium is supposed to fit to 10.5. I have a wide forefoot and the socks scrunch my toes together uncomfortably. I like the weight of the sock - I used to wear the Hidden Comfort socks which Ioved but started feeling they were too thick. I'll try again with the larger size of this sock.

Balega makes good quality socks that last. No seam issues in the toe area. I dry these socks in the dryer and they don't shrink. Fit is true to shoe size. Good high that doesn't show a lot above your shoe, but stays put and doesn't fall down the heel. There is a bit too much compression around the arch area which bothers the top of my foot. It helps to keep the sock in place but I can't wear a sock very long that is that tight. I have very sensitive feet, though, so this may not be a normal issue for most people. My daughters love these socks.

These socks are so comfortable and soft but they slide bad in shoes when working out. It's not fun to have your feet slide to the front of your shoes during exercise

Wonderful quality but these are not no show! They came up an inch above my sneakers

Super soft - I love the feel of these socks, but the tight elastic thread around the opening dug into my ankle and made a mark after I'd only been wearing them a few minutes. Also noticed immediate pilling on the heel.

You need greater variety of color and design of this sock group.

These socks fit tight and I'm a size 10.

Very tight. I returned. I always buy smalls and these were more like kid size.

Absolutely loved these socks, however after wearing less than a day, there was a hole developing at the big toe of both socks. Disappointed they weren’t as nice as the ones I bought many years ago which are still great.

So disappointed. These socks are thick compared to the original ultralight running sock. These are great socks...but not what I thought I was buying.

These have too much cushioning and feel thick and bulky on my feet. I was a big fan of these specific socks in the past, but something has changed - I don't consider them a "light" sock any longer.

These socks are synthetic, and extremely hot and slippery. I wear HOKA running shoes, and I slide around on the inside of my shoe. The synthetic 'wicking' of these socks make my feet sweat even more. Very uncomfortable. Minor point: the socks are labeled 'right' and 'left'. This is super annoying early in the morning when I am trying to put them on in the dark. I usually get it wrong, and later in the day realize that I have them backwards. Can't really tell until I look at the label. Why bother? But it does irritate my OCD to have the wrong sock on the wrong foot.

I purchased a pair in neon yellow. They were great. I ordered another pair in black and they are pitifully thin. I washed them- otherwise I would have returned them. Save you money. Don't buy them.

I loved these when I first put them on -- they felt great. Unfortunately, they are now developing a hole in the right sock -- so I don't expect to be able to wear more than a few more times. For the price, that's completely unacceptable. Very disappointed.
