I'm not fond of toe socks myself, but know others who do like them, I think it depends on your toes.Hi there,
I have recently found that walking in toe socks is very comfortable. I am preparing to walk the Camino in September and know that I need to start training now in whatever I am going to use on the trail. What are the experiences with toe socks? Do you need a sock over the top?
Thankyou
Hola @Athene, I have been sold on toe socks for about 2 or 3 years. I wore mind on the Camino Frances back in May & June 2017. They and my feet performed 100%. I also wear two pair of socks - the toe sock inners and a thicker - outer pair (normal socks). Whenever I stopped for lunch or a coffee & snack I would take off my boots and outer socks and allow my fee to cool down. CheersHi there,

Good to know about the gel toe caps, where they available in all pharmacies? My sister suffered from blisters between her toes, all of them. She took some with her but not enough.My husband loves toe socks. He is susceptible to little blisters between his toes. He also carries the gel lined toe tubes (they are available in Spanish pharmacies).
Hi there! I'm going to start walking August 29th. Just bought some Injinji toe socks and I'm going to start walking in them to see how they feel. Got them on Amazon. Maybe I'll see you there! Buen Camino!Hi there,

Hi there! I'm starting my walk August 29th so maybe I'll see you on the Camino! I ordered my Injinji socks from Amazon and I'm going to start walking in them. They are a little thin, so I may need to wear some outer socks too. Hopefully they will be as good as everyone says they are! Kate (Cayman Islands)Hi Athene, I am also planning to walk in September from StJPP. I'm in the US (New England) and planning to start training when the weather improves a bit. What are toe socks and where do you get them?
I use the merino liners with trail runners, no need for vaseline or gel or anything else
They just take a little longer to put on since you have to match all your toes to the socks!

I used toe sox and smartwool sox over those on the CP in June 2017 with Keen H2 as my hiking shoe of choice. Not one blister did I experience. I also used bodyglide on my feet.Hi there,

On my first Camino in 2015 I suffered horribly from day one with blisters. On my second Camino I used Injinji coolmax toe socks with merino wool socks over them and never had any blister problems at all. It is a bit of a chore trying to coax your toes into their proper slots every morning but a small price to pay.Hi there,

I walked two Caminos - the Frances and the Portugues. I wore regular socks walking the Frances and had many, many blisters. On the Portugues, I wore Injinji toe socks and another sock over them and got no blisters. I would highly recommend the toe socks.Hi there,

It's a silly little ritual, but every morning I say "okay little piggies, everyone into their stall". It makes me smile, and as I smooth my toes into place, I take a moment to thank my feet for their efforts and wish them well for the day.
