Shoes get most of the attention when it comes to comfortable footwear, but socks deserve some love too. You could be wearing the cushiest sneakers in the world, but if your socks are thin and flimsy? Yep, there's that foot friction we've all experienced, which can lead to blisters and painful hot spots. Your feet deserve better, and Adidas' cushioned Athletic Quarter Socks, now up to 50% off, are just the ticket, shoppers say.
Yahoo Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini says, "I've tried a lot of eye creams. And, for my money, CeraVe makes the best drugstore depuffing/under-eye brightening treatment currently on the market. Not only does it feel good on your skin (absorbs quickly, no gross pilling), it's also fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic. Olivia Wilde also loves it, along with thousands of reviewers, who say it's like Botox in a cream. I'm not sure about that claim, but I do know this is a quality skin-care staple at a price everyone can afford."
So, which color will you choose? At this price, stock up on a few!
At this price, you can grab multiple packs — after all, you can never have too many socks.
You can grab a six-pack of these Adidas favorites for as little as $11, down from $22 — less than $2 a pair. While gray has the deepest discount, black, white and multi-pack options are also 25% off. Whichever you choose, keeping your feet comfy is worth the spend.
These cushioned socks are popular because they provide a plush landing pad to help your feet feel comfortable step after step. Plus, the built-in arch compression means annoying sock slippage is a thing of the past. As one reviewer wrote, you'll get a secure fit: "These little gems hug your feet."
Another benefit: The socks are made from a moisture-wicking material. Keeping our dogs covered all day in socks and shoes can mean sweaty feet — and no one wants that. Socks that draw moisture away from our feet are essential to avoid discomfort and odor (and even the ire of our significant other).
An army of nearly 3,500 Amazon shoppers give their Adidas socks a five-star review.
"They wash and wear well," said one satisfied customer. "After at least 15 washes, they've not lost their cushioning or compression abilities." They went on to say, "They seem to help with foot fatigue and aching. I love wearing them when running or when I know I'll be on my feet all day."
This reviewer loved them so much, they referred to them as "socks of the gods." They added, "These socks are the best. So comfy, cushy, not to mention soft." Another raved, "These socks make it feel like you're walking on clouds. They also provide excellent arch support for people with high arches. I'd buy 30 pairs if I could."
"They are slightly thicker than regular socks," revealed this happy shopper. "But that's because of the cushion, and it makes them so much more comfortable."
Meanwhile, this five-star fan revealed their own reasons for picking these up: "Adidas have to be the most comfortable socks. Got them for the girlfriend, but they're so soft and I wear a size 9.5 so I've been stealing them."
Some shoppers would prefer tweaks to the Adidas logo. "I like them, but wish they would make a package with a neutral or black logo," said one customer, who still called them a "good basic sock."
"Okay, the point of buying six pairs of socks, besides better pricing, is that once you lose one, you just wait until you lose another one, and you still have five matching pairs," explained one four-star reviewer. "These are six pairs of white socks, each with a different color logo. So, if you lose one sock, the other sock can only be worn with another mismatching sock. Kind of a fail on something so simple."
