socks for running.

[TechBoyJK]

I picked up a nice new pair of Asics.. I went to a store that deals in running shoes. The guy spent over an hour with me trying on different shoes, looking at how I walked in them, etc.

They are really nice. My legs and feet don't get sore nearly as quick.

Question is, what kind of socks do you runners recommend? I tried running without and didn't like it. But I think my current socks (low cut) are too thick. They seem to make my feet a little squishy in the shoe because they are so soft and thick.

Are there any specific socks to look out for? I'd rather not do trial and error on $10+ pairs of socks...

I wear these: http://www.wrightsock.com/running.php as well as the lite version.

I'm generally ok with cheapo tube socks, but these do a better job of keeping away the blisters on long runs.

Anything that's not cotton. I usually just use Nike, Adidas or Asics socks. Anything poly* is fine.
