I bought new socks for my 5k tomorrow. They are "footie" socks. I thought they'd be invisible (or nearly so) under the sneaker, but they'd still cover - kelly Sep 13, 20:25 17

        What about doubling up? Wearing the comfortable sockettes on the side, and the thick ones over them. -- nm - Mop (200 lbs) Sep 13, 21:27
        
        If the thinner ones work wear a mismatched pair. -- nm - the liioulu with insects Sep 13, 21:15
- The advice I've a plays heard is to not wear new sox -- nm - the liioulu with insects Sep 13, 20:57 1
  - ....socks or shoes in a walk or race unless you are absolutely sure they're going to be comfortable. - the liioulu with insects Sep 13, 20:59
- I have no answers for you. But: good luck with the 5K! - prayformojo Sep 13, 20:32 1
  - Thanks! My friend and I are walking, not running. It's not a timed race anyway so that's okay. - kelly Sep 13, 20:40
