    just went to my local sports store and picked up a few. i like those athletic ones that have thick cushioning around the heel and toes but are thin up top.

    New socks make badminton more enjoyable. :)

    I use any socks, it doesn't make any difference to me.
    Sometimes I wear a thin sock when I'm wearing a new shoe in, then swap to a thicker sock when the shoe stretches a bit. But the makes of sock doesn't make any difference to me.

    I am totally agree with you.. Thick cushioning is indeed essential element for badminton socks in fact sports socks... It prevents your foot from blisters..

    The more slippery your foot inside shoes, the more blisters you end up with..

    What's your theory behind wearing a thin sock when wearing a new shoe / thicker socks when the shoes stretches? Would like your thoughts behind this..
