Overview
With a low-profile design and secure fit, the Balega Ultra Light No Show Socks offer a barely-there feel that is ideal for running in snug shoes or warm weather. Snug support around the arch and ankle fit like a second skin and sculpted mesh panels add excellent ventilation. Balega's seamless toe prevents blisters, the rear tab stops slipping, and thin reinforced cushion at the heel and toe enhances comfort and durability.

Sock Thickness
- Thin: Thin socks are typically ultra-lightweight, highly breathable, and quick-drying. These socks are ideal for snug-fitting shoes, like racing or competition options, or for the runner who prefers a more minimal approach to their footwear.
- Medium: Medium-thickness socks offer a blend of cushioning, moisture-wicking, and added comfort. These socks work well for most runners and can provide an extra sense of protection in everyday running shoes.
- Thick: Thick socks provide full cushioning for a plush ride and extra comfort. These socks are useful for runners looking for underfoot protection or those who are looking to remove any extra space in their shoes.
Sock Height
- Low: Low-cut socks go no higher than the middle of the anklebone. No-show socks, which do not go higher than the top of your shoes, are also in this category.
- Quarter: Quarter socks are higher than low-cut socks and usually cover the anklebone entirely. This provides a feeling of stability in the ankle, and alleviates most blistering that could be caused when low-cut socks creep down and expose the skin on the back of the heel.
- Crew: Crew socks go as high as mid-calf. They provide full foot, ankle, and low leg coverage for a variety of activities.

Customer Reviews
Balega SocksI didn't realize the quality and performance of this sock. Definitely worth the money!
Best Sock ever!While these socks aren’t inexpensive, they are totally worth every penny. They fit perfectly with no bunching, they keep my feet cool while running and playing pickleball, the come in several colors including white and black. This particular style is thinner material which keeps my feet comfortable and not hot. Balega is the only sock I wear.

High quality socksBalega is my go-to brand for running socks over the last several years. This one is more on the lighter/thinner racing end of the spectrum in my opinion. No issues with blisters or loose threads.

Great Socks!Love Bagela socks, super comfortable, padding in all the right places. Could be a little better ventilated but outside of that, these socks are awesome.

Decline in qualityI’m a long time Balega sock fanatic. The quality has declined significantly. The socks pill after washing and they are no longer snug fitting. Feet feel hot while running. Socks slip in shoe. Would no longer recommend. Tried to reach Balega for input; no response.
