Running socks are made of breathable materials that can handle hot and sweaty feet while also withstanding wear and tear that regular socks cannot. Good running socks should also be designed in such a way that they protect the most vulnerable points of your feet from chafing and friction. A good pair of running socks is cheap insurance against chafing and blisters when it's time for you to run longer sessions and races!


Running socks that help prevent chafing
We at Gococo are proud to work with the functional technology 37.5® Technology which is an extremely quick-drying material. Thanks to the functional material, the running sock can quickly remove moisture and sweat, thereby reducing the risk of chafing and blisters when you run and train.
Burning heat under the soles of the feet is also common among runners and this too is reduced when you use socks for running.

There are a variety of different types of running socks, depending on what type of model you prefer for your socks. In Gococo's range we have a large selection of running socks for both women and men, long, short, thin, thick, warm, cool and with compression.


Thin socks for running
Most runners prefer thin running socks, as their feet often get warm from running. The fact that the sock should feel airy and thin in their running shoes is also a common reason why most people prefer thin running socks. Even though the socks are thin, it is important that they have reinforcements at exposed points to both withstand several miles of running and protect the foot from the abrasion that running causes for the feet. Gococo's running socks Light Sport and Light Sport High socks are both very thin socks with a large proportion of the functional material 37.5®technology in the sole.


Warm running socks that keep your feet warm
Warm running socks are nice to have during the winter months when it is often wet and cold outside. Warm running socks are often knitted in some form of wool, as wool has the fantastic property of warming and also keeping you warm even when it gets wet. Running socks for the winter are often also knitted in slightly thicker yarn than thin summer socks because the thickness of the socks also makes a difference when it comes to keeping you warm. Gococo's wool sock Technical Cushion High Wool is a lovely wool sock in merino wool for running that also has reinforcements around the toe and heel where you wear the most.


Running socks with compression for better recovery
It has become increasingly common for runners to use support socks or compression socks as they are called in the world of sports. By using compression socks, you help your legs and body recover faster, both during and between workouts. Gococo's range includes compression socks in everything from thin and cool, Compression Superior Air, to warming wool compression socks, Compression Wool, and a slightly harder variant, Compression Superior, which provides a stronger effect for those who are used to compression.
