Running socks that revolutionize your running experience

In the world of running, every detail matters, including the often-overlooked one: socks. At Tabio, a brand dedicated to crafting socks, we have revolutionized this crucial piece of running gear. Through a decade of passion, dedication, and close collaboration between artisans and runners, we have created socks specifically designed for running.

These unique socks are much more than just an accessory: they embody the deep convictions of those who wear them and have the power to transform your running experience. Conviction, this driving force, inspired the creation of these marathon socks, a game-changing product for running enthusiasts.

The Importance of Socks in Running

In running preparation, the essential role of shoes is often emphasized, but the importance of socks should not be underestimated. Not only do they protect your feet from pressure and friction caused by shoes, but they also provide essential support to ensure a comfortable and efficient run.

Our marathon socks are designed to meet these specific needs. They are suitable for all types of runners, especially athletes taking on challenges over distances of up to 42.195 km.

When preparing for a race, every part of your gear matters, and your shoes are not the only ones playing a crucial role. Marathon running socks, with their shock-absorbing ability and arch support, help reduce the risk of injuries. This not only enhances your performance but also protects your feet throughout your run.

Socks designed with runners, for runners

We collaborated with Satoru Osaki, a respected running expert from Yamanashi Gakuin University, to create an innovative product – socks specifically designed to meet the unique needs of runners.

Thanks to his expertise, every detail has been carefully considered to provide exceptional comfort and optimize runners’ performance. Here are the main benefits of our toe-separating marathon socks:

The Benefits of Our Toe-Separating Marathon Socks

Tabio’s toe-separating marathon socks not only provide exceptional comfort, but they are specifically designed to meet the needs of runners by reducing the risk of injuries and optimizing performance. Here are all the benefits that make our socks an essential choice for marathoners and athletes:

1.Reduction of Friction and Improved Stability

Thanks to their toe-separating design, our marathon socks minimize friction and the risk of blisters. They allow each toe to move independently, thereby enhancing stability and balance during the run.

2.Arch Support

Designed to support the arch of the foot, our socks provide shock absorption with every step, thereby reducing the risk of injuries related to prolonged effort. This support not only helps prevent trauma but also improves your endurance and comfort throughout the race.

3.Anti-Slip Technology

The anti-slip silicone technology covers the entire surface under the foot, from heel to toe, ensuring a perfect grip during intense runs. It prevents slipping inside the shoes, reduces impact, and minimizes the risk of black toenails, while providing enhanced stability for optimal performance.

4.Reinforced “Y” Shaped Stitching

Our socks feature reinforced “Y” shaped stitching at the heel. This unique technique ensures that the sock stays perfectly fitted to the shape of the foot, preventing any shifting inside the shoe and reducing the risk of irritation or injuries caused by excessive friction.

5.Mesh for Optimal Ventilation

The mesh used on the top of the sock provides excellent ventilation, reducing the feeling of suffocation and allowing your feet to breathe during exertion. It also helps wick away sweat and keep your feet dry and comfortable throughout the run.

6.Anti-Odor Technology

Our socks are made from LYOCELL fibers and quick-drying polyester, ensuring optimal moisture management and anti-odor action. Thanks to their special cross-sectional structure, these fibers absorb and quickly wick away sweat, keeping your feet dry and fresh throughout the entire duration of your run.

Japanese Craftsmanship at the Service of Your Performance

Our running socks are the result of many years of development, testing, and refinement, combining the use of specialized machines and artisan craftsmanship. This unique manufacturing process has allowed us to create a sock that stands out in the market.

Our sports socks for marathons offer exceptional comfort, unmatched lightness, and customized support for every runner. These features come from the experience and expertise of our artisans who have spent nearly 40 years crafting socks.

Never underestimate the importance of a good pair of socks in your running experience. Our sports socks allow you to focus on your run, ensuring optimal comfort for your feet. They are the key to revolutionizing your athletic performance!
