I have very prone to getting blisters on ultra marathons, especially in wet conditions.
I recently compelted Tarawera 102km (Feb 2026 - a very wet event!) and exclusively used Wrightsocks. During the race, I changed socks several times. Despite the wet condions I only developed a couple of small blisters (normally in these conditions my feet would be a mass of blisters even with sock changes).
I used Wrightsocks for all my long training runs (up to 55km) and in dry conditions I did not get any blisters.
Very effective at reducing risks of blistering.
