Socks

[Minarets]

balegas are not compression. just regular socks. they are awesome.

[ALTSean]

Kentwool and Darn Tough are NOT compression socks either.

[ASN21]

Footjoy Pro Dry are probably the best feeling socks I have owned. Kentwool is great for cold days because they are very thick. Also Bombas makes very good socks. I bought some golf socks from them recently and I was impressed.

I like darntough socks, but if it is really hot out I wear nike elite basketball socks.

These are the only Stance ‘golf’ socks I currently have. I have a couple pair on order, I’ll post a photo once I get them in.

[foozledbaffy]

Which model do you recommend ?

[Minarets]

Hidden comfort

[th6252]

Besides hidden comfort, the hidden contour are very similar but slightly less bulky.

Bombas golf socks

Stance Tab socks with Footjoy Pro S/L. The stance socks are very comfy, not too tight. They sit very low and still protect my heel which is what i was looking for. I also wanted something that wouldnt stand out against the navy blue shoes.

Also I dont know how to rotate photos, so just lean your head to the left.

I am a Balega guy also. Have been for past 5 years. Very comfortable and great heel tab. Also, They keep my feet dry in the heat.

Primarily I wear Hidden Comfort as those are the thickest pair and fit best with my FJ Pro SLs.

I did recently pick up a pair of Hidden Dry. Those are the thinnest Balega socks so I wear those with my more narrow fitting golf shoes (Puma).

 

 

[brokonon]

been said a bunch of times already, but definitely hidden comfort. look good, feel good, love love love the hell tab.

[MisterT]

I second this opinion!! I have used Kentwool, SmartWool, WrightSock, and Darn Tough with Darn Tough being the best for comfort and durability (and easiest to care for) among that group.

[Jcbgt106]

Haha You are not alone- best deal/socks on the market.

[orew]

Darn tough all day.

Does anyone else have issues with their socks riding down and blisters forming on their achilles from their shoe rubbing against it? If so have you found that any low/no show socks that don't ride down.

[ASN21]

I had this issue and it’s why I wear socks with a tab in the back. All the better brands have a tab now.

[ThinkingPlus]

Never had that issue with Balega Hidden Comfort, but you would probably have to try a pair to see how they work for you.

[LivinLagunaLoca]

Thanks. I saw some on Nike that looked to have a tab like you mentioned. I'm gonna order some to check it out.

[LivinLagunaLoca]

Thank you. I'll look into those.

[soregongolfer]

Just buy two pair and then come back and thank us. You can find a local retailer who sells them via Balega's website unless you live in a retail desert, small town like me. I get mine on Amazon.

[th6252]

Gobros.com and socksaddict are the best places to pick them up since they are both constantly running coupon codes and have free shipping(gobros has no minimums for free shipping to boot).

[golfunderpar18]

Just bought Balega Hidden Comfort to try Via amazon. Wore with Footjoy premiere classics dry yesterday. My heels were ripped apart and i even lost skin on the top of some of my toes. Could have been the combination But I’ve got 2 weeks of healing to Repair my poor feet.

[ASN21]

Sounds like you need new shoes...

[golfunderpar18]

I own ~ 50 pairs of golf shoes, 40 of which are Footjoy classics. Never had an Issue with classics. Was just hoping for some additional comfort and ventilation. The combo was definitely not a hit.

[soregongolfer]

Ooooohhhhhhh, thanks for the tip!!

[soregongolfer]

Band-aids on your toes and tape on your heals will allow you to play, but you need better socks.

[soregongolfer]

After looking at gobros.com, I am reminded that I like the Balega blister resist no show socks. I have a few pair of Hidden Comfort, but I prefer the blister resist as they are thicker.

[Chief275]

Gobros is a great site. I just recently found them but they have sales like someone else mentioned, free shipping, and they ship fast. My order arrived faster than expected.
