This was passed onto me - maybe someone can help:

I am just trying to find out if you know anywhere in Australia that sells Wigwam (Ultimax) Mini Running Socks. I bought some in the US last year and they are the only socks that I don't get blisters running in. I have been trying hard to find some that want cost me US$30 to get here.
Thanks
Janna

I bought some Wigwam female sox from Paddy Pallin in Melbourne ( very comfortable). Now I think they're running sox but not sure. They had a range there but I didn't check them out too extensively as I had my three year old with me and he doesn't let me browse very well. <_<

Kevin,
I'm 99% sure that they aren't available anywhere in Australia.

Wigwam are available but not the ultimax type referred to here.

I had exactly the same problem and another CR put me onto www.roadrunnersports.com - a 3 pack is around USD 18 from memory plus the delivery already mentioned.

I bought 12 pairs last time I ordered and they're worth every cent I paid, they 'blister proof' your feet. They are so thin, it's basically like covering your whole foot in bandaids - you'll never get a blister wearing these socks.

Rabbit.
