Do I need to size-up in Vibram FiveFingers to accommodate toe-socks?

If you wear Vibram FiveFingers, or are thinking about buying a pair of Vibrams, this can be a common issue. First of all, you need to decide whether you want to wear toe socks under your FiveFingers – and then – if you did use toe socks – would you need to get a bigger shoe size to accommodate the extra bulk from the sock?

Should I Wear Toe Socks Under My Vibram FiveFingers?

This all comes down to personal preference. At Feetus, we find that around 30% of our customers wear toe socks in the summer, but in winter, this percentage increases to around 90%. As you can expect, the colder months prompt barefooters to reach for socks to add an extra degree of warmth.

Personally, I wore Vibrams for years before I started to wear toe socks. My first pair of FiveFingers was the original KSO. I wanted to try toe socks, but was always put-off by the price (£10+ for one pair!). I eventually took the plunge and found that the quality just didn’t meet the price tag. This, HOWEVER, was back in 2011 – and Injinji have drastically improved the quality of their toe socks.

Now, I know that their range of toe socks are WORTH £10+, given their very high quality, longevity, and performance benefits. At Feetus, we like to offer discounts on toe socks too, so you can always pick up toe socks for less than £10, and we always have a toe sock ‘special offer’ for you to get extra value.

Nowadays, I very rarely wear Vibram FiveFingers WITHOUT socks.

Do I Need To Get A Bigger Size Vibram FiveFingers To Wear Toe Socks?

No.

There is a common misconception that in order to wear socks under your Vibrams, you need to get a larger shoe size. This is not the case.

Think about the conventional shoes you’ve been wearing over the years. How many times have you thought ‘I need to wear socks today – these shoes are going to be too small’? The answer is probably ‘Never’ – and the same applies to your Vibrams.

Toe socks come in a variety of different styles, with the common factor between each being the weight. Using the original performance toesock brand Injinji as an example, they offer Lightweight, Original Weight, Run MidWeight, Trail MidWeight, NuWool Original Weight, and the range is constantly growing and evolving.

Side Note – Please be aware that MidWeight socks (both in the RUN and TRAIL series’) may be a little too thick to wear in your Vibram FiveFingers. Injinji’s Yoga Socks are also not recommended for use in shoes. 

 

What Other Toe Sock Brands Are There?

Injinji are definitely the pioneers. They’re the original creator of the performance toesock, however, we’re proud to offer GOTENA and V-Toes.

GOTENA make fabulous-quality toe socks. Their Merino Wool sock is fantastic quality, and they have also filled the gap by offering their GHOST sock, which is very similar to the (now-unavailable-in-the-UK) Injinji PED.

V-Toes offer an all-black toe sock, similar to Injinji’s Original Weight Mini Crew.

“The first step with most of my design projects, once I have a rough idea of the constraints, is to start sketching ideas in my sketchbook. I use a pen which creates a distinct state of mind when drawing, and just doodle about, enjoying the freedom to make mistakes, abandon ideas, and be playful with my approach. Drawing in ink first forces me to commit more to the lines I’m drawing, which I’ve always found is a good influence in creating ideas. From there, I’ll take ideas I like, take a photo of them with my iPad, and trace over them in Procreate, sort of like using a lightbox back in the day. If the ideas are feeling good, I’ll move on to tracing over them one last time in full color. This process allows me to start in a way that feels fun and loose and then provides some simple steps to take that playful, loose doodle and develop it into something more refined.  “

Injinji Womens RUN Lightweight No-Show Running Toe Socks SS24 (Aster)

Injinji Womens RUN Lightweight No-Show Running Toe Socks SS24 (Aster)

The Injinji Womens RUN Lightweight No-Show is specifically designed – heel to toe – to fit a women’s foot, our lowest-bulk sock is built for all types of runs. A narrower profile, increased stretch, and redesigned toes create a better fit with improved compression and support. Our unique five-toe design eliminates the friction that can cause blisters and keeps your toes free for a natural splay and better feel on uneven terrain. A mesh top and COOLMAX® EcoMade fibres help keep feet dry and cool, and the no-show cuff rests below the ankle and features a heel tab to minimise slipping and chafing.

The Injinji Womens RUN Lightweight No-Show toe sock is a part of Injinji’s existing Run Series designed to maximise a runner’s performance without sacrificing personal comfort. Recognising that all feet are not the same, the Women’s toe sock is designed to better accommodate a female foot, which is typically narrower than a male’s foot, with an increased heel to toe stretch. The increased two-way stretch will enable the material to better stretch across a female’s foot arch providing compression throughout the foot. The fit of the individual toe-sleeves were redesigned for a better, snugger fit throughout the toes for female wearers without any excess material.

The no-show length rests below the ankle and features a heel tab to protect against chafing and keep the sock from sliding into the shoe.

About Artist Designed

The Artist Designed series features one-of-a-kind styles created exclusively for Injinji by talented artists. Each collection features nature-inspired designs by different creatives in the outdoor community. These bold and colourful socks can be worn while running or hiking, and boast Injinji’s top three benefits: blister prevention, moisture management, and total foot utilisation.
