^^^so whats the point then? basketball socks are suppose to keep your feet dry to prevent blisters.

your feet are gonna get hot and sweaty regardless of what kind of socks you wear. these elite basketball socks have more material in certain areas so that may be why you feel your feet are hotter than usual. these socks aren't going to keep your feet completely dry the whole time you play ball, that's just impossible. with that logic, why not just run water on the sock to see if it'll keep dry or not? anyway, since i've been playing in these socks (almost a year ago now) i've had none of that shifting or blisters i usually get playing in normal socks.

I used to get blisters quite frequently, but after wearing these socks I don't have that problem anymore as well.

i dunno if its because im quite light (150lbs) but i fund these socks a bit too thick... like i have less court feel with them on... they dont go well matched with my kobe v's... i think im going to go back to my normal dri fit socks. not as comfy but better court feel.

Blisters come from high cotton content causing friction. That's why I stay away from cotton socks. If the sock has more than 30% cotton, I don't own it.

just ordered 2x black pair on NDC today. I wanted Navy, but they were sold out.
I feel like an idiot for spending $25 on two pair of socks, but at least I got free shipping.
Oh well, hype got me
