I think they are the same name as the guys who do running socks.
When I trained for and did the London Marathon, I used to wear these. They offered more padding and comfort, which was pretty important when you do that mileage!
And if i remember rightly, one of the elite triathalon guys wore a pair for the running part and they stayed in one piece. And those guys really move!!
So I can recommend them for extreme running - never worn them for cricket though!?
