Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

From memory, would base your sizing on what you would do with normal underwear.

Yeh, I'm a Medium in almost every brand for all types of clothes, and Med in both the briefs and boxers are perfect for me.

Loads of good advice. If you buy injinji toe socks, give them a decent test ahead of race day. I found that they blistered my toes, now use Teko instead which work really well for me.

Same here Badger. Teko were too tight on my fat toes. Worn nothing but Teko for ultras for years. The really thin ones. Adrenalines?
