Roadie socks with padded toes
Hey Everyone
Does anyone have any brand/product name recommendations for cycling socks that have padded toes?
Last summer I developed a sore on the top of one of my toes (painful!) because my I had a bit too much play in that area of the shoe. Too bad cause I feel great in them.
Padded heel isn't needed, just the toes.
Thanks in advance and looking forward to another great summer for cycling.

I've always worn wear SockGuy and DeFeet socks. Both have padded toes. In fact, I didn't know there were cycling socks without padded toes,

For what purpose are you looking for padded toes? Is it because you want to minimize vibration pains? Or get rid of blistering?

I really like Bridgedales light trekking socks. They do have a slightly padded heel, but the front padding is great. If you get the woolen ones, they are warm in winter and coolish in summer.
