I ordered several different styles of Thorlo socks for walking. I walk just about every day for 30 to 60 minutes. Even though these socks say they are thin they are a lot thicker than other socks I have from retail stores. They have good cushion on the bottom and another thicker cushion on the top arch. They are heavier than most of my other socks and my shoes sometimes feel a little tight so I have to adjust the laces. Because my feet are a little larger than the typical store sock I got these in the larger size. They fit great and my toes don't feel scrunched. They keep my feet warm on longer walks and I like them very much.
