5.0 out of 5 stars good socks, November 14, 2008

I always get smartwools, they are the best, almost like slippers. I hike for a living so I know, try 2 pairs (not of the super thick ones) at once its even better. I suppose there are other wool/synthetic blends out there, maybe as good. But thick blended socks are the way to go for hikers and bootwearers in general. Also nice for cold days around the house with no shoes.

I would not have believed it if I had been told that socks could make such a difference in walking several miles, boots seem to fit better, and no foot rubbing or chafe, no blisters , AND , they dry overnight, AND there is no odor even after 2 days of wear, 3 maybe if it is not too hot. Great for at home in cold climates also.

Here's my laundry list:

Pros:
-Soft
-Look cool (lines along each side w/ differentiating color). I like the gray ones the most.
-Breathable
-Absorbant

Cons:
-Tough (not that stretchy). I guess you could consider this a pro, too
-Not that warm in the winter
-This is just a con in general about wool socks. Since they're more expensive, I take better care of them than my other clothes, and so I wash these by hand. Since they soak up so much water, it generally takes a while to clean these. Once cleaned, they take anywhere between 1.5-2 days to try at room temperature.

I would recommend these to anyone. I'm never going back to cotton socks!
