I'm certainly no athlete, but I do enjoy walking with my husband. Unfortunately, as I've gotten older, walking has become a bit harder on my feet. I have purchased padded socks in the past, but they were too thick to fit comfortably inside my sneakers. My feet are inherently quite wide and I need all the room I can get.
Fortunately, the CS CELERSPORT 6 Pairs Ankle Athletic Running Socks Low Cut Sports Tab Socks for Men and Women I purchased a few months ago on Amazon have nicely cushioned soles without being so thick that they take up unnecessary room inside my sneakers or walking shoes. I also love that they have arch support. Here's my detailed product review.
My friend who enjoys daily hikes for exercise and has three athletic sons highly recommended the CS CELERSPORT Ankle Athletic Running Socks to me for my walks. Her sons, who play lots of sports, love them, and so does she for her daily hikes. In fact, these have replaced the ultra popular and much more expensive Bombas socks in their household!
With their enthusiastic stamp of approval, I decided to take her excellent recommendation to order a set of 6 pairs. I'm so glad I did!
These cushioned socks are designed for active men and women seeking comfort, durability, and performance during various activities such as running, gym workouts, hiking, and casual wear. These low-cut socks feature a tab design to prevent slipping, a cushioned sole for shock absorption, and moisture-wicking materials to keep your feet dry.
Key Features
Comfortable Fabric Blend
Made from a blend of 88.3% combed cotton, 10.7% polyester and 1% spandex, these cotton-rich socks are soft, stretchy, and breathable. The blend offers a snug fit without being restrictive, ensuring all-day comfort during walks, workouts or casual wear.
Arch Support
Integrated arch support enhances stability and reduces foot fatigue, making these socks ideal for high-impact activities like running or weightlifting as well as lower-impact activities like walking or hiking. I've definitely noticed a difference in how my feet feel after our walks or even after a day of running errands.
Cushioned Sole
The padding on the sole provides extra comfort and shock absorption. This reduces strain on the feet, especially during long runs or high-intensity workouts, but also making walks and daily activities more comfortable.
Moisture-Wicking Technology
Designed with moisture-wicking fibers, these cotton-rich socks help keep your feet dry by wicking away sweat, reducing the risk of blisters and minimizing foot odor.
Tab Design
The low-cut style features a back tab to prevent the socks from slipping into your shoes. This small addition ensures a secure fit and adds protection against chafing.
Durability
Reinforced heels and toes increase the socks' longevity, even with frequent washing and wear. They have held up extremely well so far and still look like new after a few months of frequent wear.
Unisex Design
Available in multiple sizes and colors, these versatile socks are suitable for both men and women. I ordered a set of two white, two grey and two black pairs, but you can choose from all white, all grey, all black, and several other color options.
The set of 6 pairs of cushioned sport socks comes nicely boxed for gift-giving. The box slides open for easy access to the socks inside. |
Pros
- Versatile: Ideal for running, sports, and casual use.
- Stay-Put Fit: Tab design prevents slipping and enhances comfort.
- Affordable: You get a nicely boxed set of six pairs in your choice of colors at an excellent price.
- Odor Control: Breathable fabric minimizes sweat buildup.
- Durability: Reinforced stress points ensure long-term use.
Cons
- Thickness: While the cushioning is great for comfort, those who prefer thinner socks might find them a bit bulky for tighter shoes. However, even though I have wide feet and need as much room inside my footwear as I can get, I did not find this to be as much of an issue with these socks as I have with other brands of cushioned cotton sport socks.
Who Are They Good For?
The CS CELERSPORT 6 Pairs Ankle Athletic Running Socks are perfect for individuals who prioritize comfort, durability, and moisture control in their activewear.
Whether you're a runner, gym enthusiast, a casual walker, or someone who appreciates comfortable, high-quality socks for daily use, these socks deliver exceptional value.
A Thoughtful, Affordable Gift
If you know someone who enjoys walking, running, or playing any type of sports, these cushioned sport socks would be a welcome gift.
I love that they come nicely boxed and ready for gift-giving.

I know from experience how important the feel and the durability of good socks can be. These CS Celersport socks do seem to be exactly what you needed. Thanks for your recommendation.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind comment, Ms. Elf! My husband used to sell socks when he was in his early twenties, and he (my in-house sock consultant, lol) also has given these his seal of approval!
DeleteFunny how the correct socks can make such a big difference! When Renaissance Woman recommended her hiking socks, I bought a pair and was shocked at how much better they felt. These socks sound like the perfect socks to wear with my sneakers. Thank you for the recommendation!
ReplyDeleteYes, I think you would love these, Mouse. My friend who recommended them says they have completely replaced the much more expensive Bombas socks in her household!
DeleteThese sound great thanks for the recommendations.
ReplyDeleteThey really are, Mary Beth! I’m amazed at the quality, especially considering the low price. I hope you try them, either for yourself or as a gift. I’m sure you’ll be pleased!
DeleteThese look and sound wonderful - I love all the color choices as well - It's always handy to get sock recommendation since buying these is usually just a guess - their price is reasonable as well - I just took a quick peak at them - good holiday gift too!
ReplyDeleteBarb, they really are terrific! Truly exceptional, considering the price. I agree that they would make a great gift (maybe even for yourself!).
ReplyDeleteThese socks sound like they are made for me! I love walking and really dislike socks that ride down into my shoes, which many of the small anklet type do. So, I will give these a try and I'm sure they will fill my needs perfectly! Thanks Margaret for this recommendation.
ReplyDeleteOlivia, that drives me crazy, too! Luckily, these socks don’t slip at all for me. I hope you love them as much as I do!
DeleteI do love good socks with a tab on the back. Thanks for the info.
ReplyDeleteYou’re very welcome, Cheryl! I’ve been really pleased with these.
