Feetures Elite MAX Cushion Review


FEETURES

Elite Max Cushion No Show Tab — $18


How I tested: 3 runs (6–10 miles each) · Nike Vomero+ shoes · cool New England temps (35–45°F) · paved paths.

Editor’s Take

These socks feel incredibly comfortable and fit the foot perfectly without that overly tight compression-sock squeeze. They’re slightly less soft than the Balega Hidden Comfort, but unlike the Balegas, these do not move underfoot — the locked-in feel is real. Paired with Nike Vomero+ shoes, they provided excellent cushion and never caused blisters or ankle irritation on 6–10 mile runs. They’re my daily go-to training sock and an easy recommendation for most runners.
